View Full Version : Honda Rune Schneegz 06-13-2003, 03:41 AM So you say you want a cruiser with a 1.832L flat 6 engine? Well, here (http://www.motorcycledaily.com/12june03honda2004runepreview.htm) you go. UPDATE! Motorcycle Cruiser Magazine (http://www.motorcyclecruiser.com/newsandupdates/RuneFirst/) got to ride it! wakeech 06-13-2003, 11:42 AM wow, that's wicked... huge, but wicked. a chopper i can finally relate to :D bwayout 06-13-2003, 12:32 PM Very nice! Thanks for the link. desmo996 06-13-2003, 01:36 PM That is the most repulsive thing I have ever seen. Now I have to sterilize my eyes at the Ferrari website. Schneegz 06-15-2003, 08:12 PM It's interesting how polarizing the Rune's styling is. But I think that was the point, to an extent. Honda is always critisized as being too conservative. Their products are often called "bland", no matter how well they perform. The Rune seems to be Honda's way of proving that they can be daring, I guess. Personally, I like it. I'd never own one, WAY too big for my taste, but I like its look. The price is a huge gamble too. $25K; holy crap :eek: WAY too rich for my blood. Still, people are willing to pay that much and more for some Harleys. And that flat 6 is far more powerful and torquey than anything Harley would even dream of building. I give Honda a big "thumbs up" on this one. Schneegz 06-15-2003, 08:18 PM UPDATE! Motorcycle Cruiser Magazine (http://www.motorcyclecruiser.com/newsandupdates/RuneFirst/) got to ride it!
