The Honda Valkyrie is a motorcycle that was manufactured by Honda from 1997 to 2003. It was designated GL1500C in the US market and F6C (" Flat Six Custom ") in other markets. Back in the 90's there was a resurgence of interest [ 2 ] in cruiser motorcycles , that generally feature a V-twin engine .
List of motorcycles by type of engine is a list of motorcycles by the type of motorcycle engine used by the vehicle, such as by the number of cylinders or configuration..

Honda describes it as curb weight (aka kerb weight) and says this means the bike is "ready to ride." Others say all fluids are included and the fuel tank is at least 90% full. Erik Buell Racing gives "wet weight (no fuel)" for the 2012 1190RS motorcycle, [ 10 ] while KTM gives a "weight without fuel approx." [ 11 ]
The 1300 engine used an air injection system and catalytic converters, similar to the bigger engine, as well as a lean fuel-air mixture to control emissions. [ 24 ] The VTX1300 line employed the same two-into-two exhaust system across the board, as opposed to the model specific two-into-one system of the VTX1800C.
The reduction in fuel tank capacity from 22 L (4.8 imp gal; 5.8 US gal) on the previous VFR800 down to 18.5 L (4.1 imp gal; 4.9 US gal) on the VFR1200F has been the main complaint raised by motorcyclists, coupled with the new engine's higher-than-expected fuel consumption.
The Honda VFR800 (Interceptor) is a sport touring motorcycle made by Honda since 1998. [1] The model was the successor to the VFR750F and shares the V4 engine configuration with the Honda VF and VFR series. The VFR800 name was given to three successive iterations of Honda V4 motorcycles: 1998–2001 (RC46) VFR800Fi; 2002–2013 (RC46) VFR800 VTEC
The system Honda used on the RC45 was very similar to the system used on the NR750. Contrary to popular belief the RC45's fuel injection is not like a 4-stage carburetor, rather it is a proper fuel only system. Honda kept the ignition system separate.
Honda's first production V6 was the C series; it was produced in displacements from 2.0 to 3.5 liters.The C engine was produced in various forms for over 20 years (1985–2005), having first been used in the KA series Legend model, and its British sister car the Rover 800-series (and Sterling).
