Cruisin'

I just saw the most amazing Japanese cruiser bike I have ever seen. This thing looks like a one-off custom that the owner either built himself or was forced to part ways with upwards of $70k to create. Fortunately, said owner had the good sense to park it directly in front of our building where several of my co-workers can still be found drooling all over the pretty candy black cherry paint even now.

Imagine my surprise to find out that it's just the new Valkyrie Rune.

Pictures don't do it justice.

Somehow, knowing that my neighbor can buy one just like it, makes it a little trivial. But at 25k per copy (or 27k with chrome wheels) I doubt too many of my neighbors will have one....
