10 Motorcycles Only Very DUMB People Buy [SHOCKING TRUTH]

Just happened to run across this YouTube video [Link removed, see Serk's comments below].

The Valkyrie Rune is 10th place (the first on the video).

FWIW.

I've known folks who had Rune's.   I'll agree they are a rolling work of art but just not one that does anything for me.   I suppose Mother Honda produced it for some marketing reason but, it apparently didn't go as intended.   Haven't seen one in a very long time being ridden.

They could make the same goofy video about cars and trucks if they wanted. There is no reason anyone needs a Helcat TRX truck or a Corvette that does 200 mph but people buy them and are happy. I would if I could. I wouldnt mind having a couple of those motorcycles in my garage. The video is just one guys opinion.  :coolsmiley:

You're correct in similar videos could be made about just about anything.   Admittedly, I only viewed the part about the Rune (on the first pass) but your comments caused me to go back and watch the entire thing.   To each their own but, there was only one listed that I'd have considered at some point in my riding life and that was the Ducati V4.   I'm well past wanting to test my skills on something that powerful and fast.   So, I'll stick with my old Fat Ladies although, I have grown fonder of the F6B over time.   Just not enough to go out and buy one (yet).  ;)

One thing that I didn't agree with was the narrator's comment about too much chrome on certain bikes.    How can that be?   ;)

Did a quick look, appears to be AI generated rage-bait slop to generate views and revenue...

When you see stuff like this, the best thing to do is NOT watch it, not tell others about it (They get $$$ with every view) and just ignore it, IMHO...

Never ask a geek 'Why?',just nod your head and slowly back away...

Sorry. Did not mean to pass on objectionable material. Just thought some members might be interested in the editorial regarding the Rune.

My apologies, didn't mean to be judgmental against you or your posting this, was more a generalization about the waves of AI generated rage bait content being churned out lately...

If nothing else this helps more folks become aware of these folks churning out this stuff just designed to rile folks up for clicks (And money).....
