2006 Honda VTX1300S review from United States of America
"A great riding, great looking, all around great value"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Front end wobble on deceleration. This was corrected with better neck bearings.
General comments?
This bike is great value.
It has a great look.
It has an excellent rider position.
It has plenty of power, I'm a large guy and ride two-up most of the time.
There is a large selection of after market parts and accessories.
It ranks right up with the Harley at half the price.
