Just getting back to the forums and was curious what kind of bikes does everyone like. If I can figure it out I'll add a picture of mine. Feel free to add your bike pics.

Yeah when I saw a chance to get a photo with that Wart Hog I was all over it. One of the coolest aircraft around.

Valkyrie Tourer, the only way to fly.

I'll have to hunt up a pic to put online..."Nemo Plus Voluptatis Quam Nos Habant"

I always liked the way the Valks looked and really like the interstate can't believe they quit making them. Are you all able to ride again after the since the snow is now gone?

Being out there in the Rockies probably about that time of year to put the bikes to bed. Thats a great pic.

It's a 2004 VFR-800. My first bike was a 500 Interceptor and I've been addicted to V-4's ever since. It's a sport touring bike so it's a little bigger and much more comfortable than a regular sport bike. I guess comfort is what you are used to, as it is more comfortable to me than a cruiser where I can't put weight on my legs to get the weight off my rear end.

Not sure where I have a picture, but a Honda Valkyrie Interstate is what I ride.
I know I don't have a picture of it in front of a fighter plane.

Apparently the Honda "powers that be" were all about getting on the V-twin band wagon in the early 2000's -- giving us the VTX bikes -- but there was one proponent of the Valkyrie line at Honda who kept it alive. When he died, the Valkyrie as a legitimate cruiser died with him.

I'd love to see an updated Valkyrie development built around the chassis and 1800 flat 6 used in the Gold Wing but it doesn't look like it will ever happen. The Valkyrie Rune was a Valk in name only and the EVO concept bike is definitley not headed in that direction. If I ever buy another bike, it'll probably be another Valkyrie -- even though they haven't made them since 2003.
I probably could ride some more if I dug the bike out from behind the snow pile along the driveway but I wouldn't have time to enjoy it. It'll probably get put away early for this season soon."Nemo Plus Voluptatis Quam Nos Habant"

Love the way the HD Bobbers look. Really like the Cross Bones bobber look.
Zep
When I was younger liked the Magnas really sharp and quick with the 4cyl.
Captoldtimer
LOL Ask the riders of those and they are sport bikes jsut ask my VP about his lol.
Deputy
Never understood it those bikes fly and have a great sound. Ran into a guy down by Deals gap who ran a car tire on the rear of his. That must have rode a little strange.
I will keep my eyes open for a Valk Interstate at a good price. Love that bike.
Folks keep the pics coming some aswesome ones so far.

When I rode them it was Harley's. In fact I had a 1956 KHK when I was in the Army.
Stay Safe and Well Out There....
