About this vehicle
Description
The biggest, baddest cruiser Honda has ever produced, the VTX 1800 is powered by a 1795cc V-twin with 106 horsepower and 120 pounds-feet of torque. With an exhaust valve bigger than a P-51’s and an 18.8 kilogram crankshaft, the VTX is the King Kong of performance cruisers. And because it’s a Honda, the VTX brings a new level of sophistication with a PGM-FI electronic fuel injection system.
Specifications
Mileage: 18k · Show-stopping street rod styling with beautiful satin-finish cast aluminum wheels. · Minimalist-design front and rear steel fenders complement the VTX’s street rod styling. · Dragster-style seat boasts a low, 695mm seat height for flat-footed confidence during low-speed maneuvers. · Semi-swept handlebar design provides a comfortable, upright riding position. · Handsome chromed two-into-one exhaust system produces a deep, exhaust note. · Wide, low, 130/70R-18 radial front tire enhances street-rod styling and delivers superb handling. · Aggressive 180/70R-16 radial rear tire puts the engine’s awesome power to the ground and provides exceptional traction. · Large, handsomely finished 17-litre gas tank with aviation-style fuel cap offers extended cruising range. · Engine is a 1795cc liquid-cooled 52-degree V-twin that dwarfs other production V-twin engines and hammers out immense power — 106 hp at 5000 rpm and 120 lb.-ft. of torque at 3500 rpm. · Advanced, high-pressure programmed fuel injection (PGM-FI) and electronic digital ignition maximize power output and offer immediate throttle response in any gear. · Two 42mm diameter throttle bodies deliver air to two specially designed Denso 50-psi high-pressure fuel injectors. Fuel is delivered through 12 nozzle orifices in each injector, producing an atomized fuel mixture that is highly combustible, for maximum efficiency and power. · Powerful V-twin engine features 101mm cylinder bores and the largest connecting rods and cylinders Honda has ever made. · Offset dual-pin crankshaft and two primary-shaft-mounted balance weights allow a high-performance engine design while eliminating harsh engine vibration. The result is muscular power across a broad rpm range for unequaled acceleration and roll-on performance. · The 18.8 kilogram forged steel crankshaft uses bolted weights, reducing crankcase width nearly 50mm and reducing crankshaft weight 4 kilograms compared to a conventional one-piece design. · The engine mounting system uses carefully matched engine hangers and rubber engine mounts to eliminate unwanted vibration while preserving the powerful character of the VTX engine’s V-twin design. · Three-valve cylinder head features two large, 36mm intake valves and a huge, 45mm exhaust valve to produce optimum flow for the air/fuel charge. · Two iridium-tip spark plugs per cylinder for efficient combustion at all engine speeds. · Simple-to-service screw-and-locknut valve clearance adjusters. · 4.5-litre airbox supplies a large volume of cool, clean air to the engine. · Electronic CPU provides individual, digital 3-D fuel injection and ignition maps for each cylinder, creating ideal fuel mixture and spark advance settings for superb rideability.
