Honda Rune

So you say you want a cruiser with a 1.832L flat 6 engine? Well, here you go.

UPDATE!

Motorcycle Cruiser Magazine got to ride it!

That is the most repulsive thing I have ever seen. Now I have to sterilize my eyes at the Ferrari website.

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 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.
