| I have a 1800 vtx smodel I ride 2 hunderd miles a day from the gold country to the bay area and back. my daily jouneys take me thougth the hill with sharp twits and turns sometimes off canter to the highway were you drive 80 or better or get ran over thougth the valley to the next set of hill and there conestion as i then enter the bay area starting with the brakes they are great. the handling its no cafe racer but handels well rember its a cruiser. general comfort is very good everything seems to work well I wuold like a 6th gear for freeway use. it has good power but i expected more at the low end and the top evrey one I know thinks they have tons of power I donot to me it seem like Im riding a 900 or 1000 cc bike so were is the power gone honda has detuned the bike for fule and smog resones speking of fuel I get 38.75mpg. on averege most claim around 35mpg you soon forget the bike wayin in at 750 with a bit of gear and gas it could realy use a tach to.I would give it an 8 out of 10 but Im picky |
