Looks nice but it is just a sport bike with an F6 engine and chain drive.  I would like to see a new Valk cruiser with multipoint fuel injection and other upgrades and keep it naked.

It is a poser bike...............

The Honda people think we are just bar hoppers and posers, so that is what they copied and built.....

Anyone remember the old Ronson cig lighter of the 40's and 50's?   They never worked any too well, had to flick em about a dozen times to get it to light, but Japan built them out of beer cans we sheet canned in Korea.  The Japanese model lite every stroke of the flint wheel.   They just took what we had and made it work. 

That is all they are doing with the motorcycles..

They think we want a poser bike and they are trying to build a better one.....

I would say that single sided swing arm with a CHAIN is really a mistake.  Drive shafts are a big improvement and even belts are an improvement over a chain.  I can't imagine what they were thinking!

Looks cool and like it would be fun to ride if I were in my early 20's again.

Practicality for the enjoyment of touring is lacking drastically.
Nice paint shop modes though.

Hopefully they're just testin' the waters with this, this....whatever it is.  I'm hoping that maybe they'll see if there's any customer support for this bike and will go with other versions of Valks too.  I wouldn't buy that bike, but I would diffinitely buy a new cruiser/tourer type Valk.

I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
