Top 10 cruisers

[JimC]

I am sure some of you have seen this before as it has been out for almost 2 years.
I just now ran across it and thought I would post in case others have not seen it.

Any guesses which bike was NUMBER 1 ?

 I watched the Video. No surprise that the Valkyrie is #1.

This video was posted on YouTube two years ago, but it is much older than that.  I saw it many years ago.  I imagine it was first produced in the late 1990's...

also the guy doing the talking was talking about one bike and showing another,,until he got to the v-rod and the valk..
i would rate the valk the best, the electra glide 2nd and polaris 3rd and the indian 4th

Watched a video yesterday showing the top ten motorcycle commercials. Very disappointed in that nothing was said about the new Valkyrie doing the rooster tail out in the desert. More harley crap than anything. SOS.

and in my unofficial opinion being current as of now, our old 1997-2003 Valks are still in the top ten list, although slightly closer to ten vs. one.

What bikes might you put above the Valkyrie? Just curious as to what other Valk owners might say in this regard.

There's one Valkyrie rider here I know of that likes his Victory plenty. I've met some other Victory
riders who think they have the "best" bike, and I liked the looks of the bikes they were on.

There's probably a couple here who like their Harleys as much or more than their Valkyrie.

There's a few people here who like to go fast, they use their ST1300s like a Valkyrie, plus it can be ridden harder.
I think I remember Britman describing his ST1300 as being like a goldwing, only not bloated.

Goldwings. My "naked goldwing" has its pluses and minuses, I'm glad I have it and I have a good
Valkyrie to compare it to.

I was at Grits and Groceries once, there were a bunch shiny new $35,000 110 Harleys there, my
Valkyrie looked pretty dated next to them. I was still glad I was on the Valkyrie though. My water cooled
flat six nickle-trick engine good handling comfortable fast motorcycle is the one....

Don't get me wrong, I love my '98 Tourer, but our Valks do not compare to the latest motorcycles.  On my ride last Saturday I conversed a rider on a new BMW K 1600 GTL.  Granted, this is a touring bike but it has a 1649 cc, 160 hp, fuel injected, in line six cylinder engine and all the bells and whistles you will find on a Gold Wing.  The technology is far more advanced then that of our twenty year old Phat Girls.  The world has moved on.  The only down side is that these go for $23k to $30k...

I'd rather do something else other than ride motorcycles than ride that. Our bikes
are dated compared to the BMW, and most new bikes... which one do you want
to ride to Texas on, though?

Still #1 in looks to my eye.
