The Honda Valkyrie speaks that most eloquent of cruiser languages - torque.

Unlike high-revving sportbikes, Valkyrie's performance isn't measured in horsepower, but in pounds-feet. The kind that come with cubic centimetres -- 1520 of them in all -- distributed evenly amongst Valkyrie's six smooth-running cylinders.

Unlike a lot of other cruisers, the Valkyrie's performance doesn't fall flat when the road gets twisty. Thanks to a generous heaping of ground clearance, stout spine frame and robust 45mm inverted fork, the Valkyrie is as adept in a corner as it is in a straight line.

Not only is the Valkyrie's six-cylinder engine unique in sound and feel. The Valkyrie is also plenty comfortable with plush suspension, a roomy seat and a host of accessories to transform the performance cruiser into a long-haul tourer.

The Valkyrie engine is a 1,520 cubic centimetres (93 cu in) liquid cooled, horizontally-opposed flat-six engine transplanted from Honda's Goldwing model. This was unusual since most "cruiser" style motorcycles were based on a V-twin engine design similar to the engine of a Harley-Davidson. In its transplant from the Goldwing, the most notable engine changes were the camshaft and the change to six individual 28 mm carburetors, one for each cylinder, changes which increased power and torque.

Honda Valkyrie screams individuality. Engine · Liquid-cooled 1520cc six-cylinder is tuned for excellent roll-on power and sophisticated cruising comfort. · Previous generation Gold Wing-derived engine adds six carburetors, revised camshaft timing and a free-flow exhaust system to boost engine output considerably. ·
