Just imagine the repair bills on that thing...

This is also a shamlest post to hit 1,000 posts!!

WOooooooo

Everyone owes me a drink.

 

Congrat's but all "visitors" who enter the saloon ... buy the first round !

 

More likely, it will end up like the Dodge Tomahawk, one bike and 9 copies at $555,000 USD ea. But it won't be in the same class as the Tomahawk so most likely worth much less.

Now Honda with the Rune was a real production bike. I have no idea how many were made however. lol

It seams that bike and auto companies like to flex their mussels and produce some kind of weird thing to spike interest in their companies.

 

Those with rectoptolitis, meaning their optical nerve is fused to their rectum would be spared the cost of a rear view camera with that riding position.

 

I wasn't even going to go there. Saying there is no way you can carry a case of beer on that thing.

 

do you have a link for this I misssed out on it since I am new to the sportbike world

 

The Rune wasn't a sportbike. It was more of a cruiser that had a Goldwing engine and about a square mile of chrome. I think each US dealer got a total of two bikes to sell, and I don't know if any were sold outside of the US. The went for about 25 large.

 

And don't forget that it was about the size of a small car. Honda built it just because they could.

Concept bikes that I have seen at bike shows usually don't make it to production. As a matter of fact, I have seen some that are non-functional.

 

I looked it up. I would have to say its pretty cool though where do you all hear about the new concept bikes coming out I've just been more in my bike than I have been trying to see what else is out there

 

The neat thing about the Honda Rune, is the single sided swing-arm and I think it incorporates a drive shaft too.

There's an old guy lives round the corner from me, he has some old Honda with the same technology, don't know what model it is though, it's just some little commuter bike
