A 3 year Evaluation, Honda Valkyrie.

by yakkowarner Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Mar 02 '04
Pros: Power, smooth engine, price, durability, and comfort.
Cons: Lack of key features, needs additional options. Not for a novice rider.
I bought this bike because it was with in my budgetary constraints and it was one of the few bikes out there that a 6ֶ” individual can ride comfortably. As an added bonus, this beast has an engine that will outperform all but the fastest bikes ...

Only bike so far that has smoked my rice burner...

by jeffs320 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Oct 19 '00
Pros: Comfortable, fast, just sounds really cool coming down the street
Cons: Too big for me
I have a Yamaha R6, and went out riding with a friend last week who has an R1. I went to meet him at the club he works at, and as we were walking outside, I heard a whole lot of noise. At first I was wondering what a pack of ground pounders were doing...

I sold mine

by sweetmachine , Oct 16 '00
Pros: Gorgeous, smooth, comfortable, reliable
Cons: Pegs scrape easily, thirsty, questionable quality
I put 9,000 miles on a gorgeous yellow valk in 12 months, including a 3,000-mile tour of Utah two-up. I bought her because I wanted a comfortable, reliable cruiser for two with attitude. And though she is The Queen of Smooth, very comfortable and...

Big, Beautiful, Best!

by bajaron , Sep 10 '01
Pros: Comfort of an old man's bike...Power of a kids bike!
Cons: Heavy
I've owned several street bikes over the years, Honda's, Kawasaki's, Suzuki's, a Triumph and even a BSA. I've also ridden several other very impressive bikes that I didn't own.

The Honda Valkyrie is simply in a class by itself. I have...

drmbradford

by drmbradford , Dec 15 '02
Pros: Unique, eye-catching, intimidating motorcycle
Cons: Huge, gas hungry motorcycle
I'm a compulsive guy. I shopped around a lot before I bought My '98 Honda Valk, trading in my smaller Honda. Here's the "updated" scoop that I can tell you after 14 months of ownership (9-02 to 12-03) and lots of pleasant riding. (1) It's a ...

THE motorcycle

by croozertoo , Apr 13 '00
Pros: The Valk can do it all!
Cons: No soul? Ha!
I'll admit it up front, I don't actually own a Valkyrie. But I have been blessed enough to spend many happy hours and miles aboard several examples of this bike, which I consider to be THE motorcycle. But rather than spend my remaining words gushing...

The Fat Lady Sings

by knox , Dec 17 '99
Pros: Fast. Comfortable.Smooth. Beautiful
Cons: Weight....750 lbs(approx.)
Honda Valkyrie. The Fat Lady, the dragon or what ever you want to call her is quite a girl. 1520 cc's of raw power. Responsive off the line...but wait. At 2400 rpm's you better hold on. The cams and the six carburetors take full charge of your immediate...

Cruising With Attitude

by kuasimodem , Dec 13 '99
Pros: Low Center-of-gravity, smooth power, stable in corners
Cons: not for vertically challenged, this is a big boys bike
Recently I had a great experience, I was given a Honda Valkyrie as a loaner bike while my classic Honda was in the shop for an overhaul. Due to this, I will be purchasing a Valkyrie this coming spring. When the dealer gave me the keys, he said,...

A dream come true

by jaguar1990 , Jun 14 '05
Pros: Big, smooth, powerful, and down right beautiful
Cons: gas mileage
I have been riding bikes since 1966, when for my 13th birthday, my dad bought me a brand new black 305 Honda dream (wish I had that classic now :-) Anyway, since then I have rode Harley's, English bikes, crotch rockets and for the last 26 years, ...

HONDA'S BEST OVERALL SPORT/TOURER EVER

by obedia , Sep 20 '05
Pros: POWER (LOTS!), COMFORT, DEPENDABILITY, STYLE, CORNERING AND PERFORMANCE.
Cons: WEIGHT, TIRE WEAR.
My wife and I purchased our new Valkyrie in South Florida and moved to NW Pennsylvania a year later. I have been riding since 1971, and my last new Honda was a 1978 GL1000 Gold Wing. Our Valkyrie is configured as a "naked" sport/tourer with no bags, ...

Great all around bike!

by twangmaster , Nov 28 '02
Pros: Reliability, power, style
Cons: Honda dealerships for service
When I got back into riding a few years back, I wanted a Harley like everyone else. After riding for a couple of years I decided that I wanted to ride something different than the majority of the crowd was riding. Reliability was a huge issue with me...

Not Your Everyday Cruiser!

by bill_bryant51 , Dec 18 '99
Pros: Handling, Braking, and Power
Cons: Gas Mileage and Rear Tire Wear
When you first look at Honda's Valkyrie you are somewhat overwhelmed by the sheer size of it. it is rather large and heavy by most motorcycle standards. But that is overcome by the beast's handling, braking, and tractability. It comports itself very...

50 miles of macho motorman

by billcarr , Nov 19 '02
Pros: Heavy-duty iron for medium road trips. Sure to impress the techno crowd.
Cons: Bulky, fair gasoline mileage, raspy exhaust note (modified muffler).
Recommended: Yes
Bottom Line: A large, aggressive head turner sure to be the center of attention wherever it is. A technical triumph for Honda - give them credit, It is a winner.

Another model conquered. I rode with Tucson Motorsports...

Awwh (drool rolls down cheek) I Need One

by CM400a , Feb 21 '01
Pros: It's huge!, power up the "whazoo", Six cylinders!, 6 into 6 exhaust
Cons: Expensive
That Honda Valkyrie is one of the sweetest new bikes there is. It is awesome. I just love the idea of a humongous six cylinder bike. It echoes back to the day of the Honda CBX and Kawasaki KZ 1300 (email me if anyone has one for sale for relatively...
