2003 Honda VTX1300C review from United States of America
"Great!"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
No problems so far, and none expected.
General comments?
This bike has many after-market parts available, and specialty parts galore!
Stock this bike wasn't the most comfortable for me, but after a BadX seat mod, handlebars with more rise and pull back, and ISO wings for front pegs, I easily ride 600-700 miles without the dreaded monkey butt.
Stock mpg was in the mid 40's. My bike with different mods, pipes, air, and using too much throttle gets me between 36-42 mpg.
Very, very dependable bike. But in stock form looks the same as competing models from every other brand.
