Re: Horex VR6 - Dead Eye - 23-01-13
It does look lovely and something about a 6 cylinder bike is appealing for no apparent reason
Re: Horex VR6 - chris.biker - 24-01-13
Call me picky but did the mirrors look like they would give you a good rear view or just a close up on your elbows. :lol
A really classy bike, another thing to buy when my premium bonds come up.

"Another innovation is a chain and sprocket lubrication system, which continuously applies a thin film of graphite to the chain"
Sounds expensive, think I'll wait for a second hand model

The graphite chain lube is not that expensive, I saw it at the Paris bike show in 2011, basically it's a block of graphite mounted on the swinging arm that the bottom of the chain rubs on intermittently as the suspension does it's thing.

I love that fabulous hairpin !
horex looks cool, almost like that honda cb1100 in styling from a distance....
6cyl engines always sound superb....

nah, not my cup of tea. you still cant beat the wail of a street triple in full song. half the engine, easily half the price and doesnt cost the earth when you bin it!

although clearly not looking the same it also reminds me a little of that bike Philippe Starck designed and I didn't like that either.
