2005 Honda VTX1300R review from United States of America
"It's bullet proof!!"
General comments?
Awesome bike and super reliability; I’ve only had to change the oil on my 2005 that now has 14,000 miles on it.
Even though it has only about 60hp, it’ll run at 80mph all day long on the interstate loaded down with gear.
My only knock would be the paint, the clear coat scratches easily and could use a few more coats.
It’s a great bike and I’m damn glad I bought this one instead of that other brand built in the land of cheese.
