Draft Valkyrie review is now up on BigBikeMad, and all comments welcome (he said, nervously coolsmiley).

bigbikemad.com/honda-valkyrie-f6c.html


Could really do with a couple more pictures if any of you generous folks would oblige - some of the brighter colors like read and cream would be cool. ???

There will also inevitably be some errors, and we'd be happy to take advice. remember also that its almost impossible to say all that can be said about a bike like this.... we've had a crack at it, but we all have day jobs, so its a labor of lover rather than a commercial exercise.

Naturally, we have given the Forum / VRCC a plug too. cooldude cooldude cooldude

Just when the highway straightened out for a mile
And I was thinkin' I'd just cruise for a while
A fork in the road brought a new episode
Don't you know...

Conform, go crazy, or ride a motorcycle...
