Overview
The Honda GL1800C Valkyrie is a cruiser produced for 2014. Its liquid-cooled, horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine displaces 1,832 cm³ and produces 117 hp (87 kW); the motorcycle weighs 341 kg.
A 732 mm seat height gives the Valkyrie a relatively low seating position, while its 341 kg weight calls for deliberate handling at walking pace. The shaft final drive needs no chain cleaning or adjustment, and the 23.1 L tank provides room for longer stretches between fuel stops, though actual range depends on fuel use. The front cartridge fork has an anti-dive system, and the rear single shock has hydraulic spring-preload adjustment.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Shaft final drive
It avoids the regular cleaning and adjustment required by a chain.
Low seat
The 732 mm seat height can make it easier to put a foot down at stops.
Adjustable rear preload
Hydraulic spring-preload adjustment lets the rear suspension be adapted to the load.
Things to consider
Heavy at low speed
At 341 kg, tight turns and parking maneuvers take more effort than they do on a lighter motorcycle.
