2006 Honda VTX1300C review from United States of America
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
The stock seat is only good for 1/2 hour.
General comments?
I love this bike. It looks and rides great. I'm 6'2 360 lbs. It pulls me around like nothing. It has no problem hauling the wife and I around town or jetting down the highway. The only thing I need to do is get an after market seat and floorboards.
Sure there are more powerful bikes out there, but how much more power than I need do I need? Sounds funny, but it is a good question.
This bike feels good on the highway. 80mph is nothing to hold riding this baby, and she does not float all over the road when a truck passes you like some smaller bikes.
