Overview
The 2004 Honda Valkyrie Rune is a cruiser produced in 2004. Its 1,832 cm³ boxer engine uses fuel injection and makes 148 hp (111 kW); dry weight is 349.1 kg.
A 691 mm seat height gives the bike a low seating position and can make it easier to put a foot down at stops. Its 349.1 kg dry weight will take effort to manage at walking speed, while the 1,750 mm wheelbase gives it a long footprint in tight turns. The shaft final drive avoids chain cleaning and adjustment, and the 23.5-liter tank carries a substantial amount of fuel without indicating a specific riding range.
