Rune video & history

[KUGO]

Saw this today.  Hadn't seen it before.  I've always found it interesting how the original Rune concept morphed into the '14 Valkyrie.  Did they think the Valk design was going to be more marketable?  We all know how THAT went.  I'm posting it here instead of in the 1800 Forum as I thought other Valkers might be interested, too.

Really cool video!

I wasn't aware of one of the concepts (model 2).

I have the impression those Runes do keep they value. I see them for sale in the $14K to $19K range.

The Rune is my dream bike, I hope one day to buy one.

Here's another video same guy and perhaps the same Rune in the background.

They ended up putting the Rune on EBay and it sold this week for $15,100

Nice videos.  Thanks for sharing.  I've always liked the Rune and wondered how it would handle in the turns.  Since it is fuel injected I'd love to have one with that large 6 pipe after market exhaust set up as a one seat bike.  But they are not cheap and no extra room.  Lots of them still come up for sale.  Seems to be 2-4 on eBay most of the time but like our Valkyries you want to buy one with the parts you like already installed.
