    Have a 2005 Honda VTX 1800 F, still rides like brand new and looks just as good as the day I bought it off the showroom floor. It's a keeper.

      Im about to sell my 2006 VTX 1300. After the last time I ran out of gas due to it being carbureted and not having a gauge , I decided to let it go.

    I have a 2001 Honda 750 shadow ace with 50 thousand miles and never had a problem with it. I am hoping to get many more miles from it. all I have done is regular maintenance. It gets 60 miles per gallon .I have had many bikes in the past but this is the best

    I have a 2016 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 and I got a feeling that it’s going to be with me for a long time picked up last year only had 4085 miles on it very reliable and easy to maintain

      1994 Vulcan 500.
      I've had it for years.
      Just over 50, 000 km.
      Not too big, not too small.
      Great on gas.

      I have a 2008 Vulcan 900 Classic. Beautiful bike with great power and gas mileage. The 5.3 gallon tank is the biggest among mid size cruisers, and gives it an awesome cruising range for touring. Very comfortable for two up riding and highly recommended. Not a bike I will need to upgrade from.

    I drove a Shadow in Asia when I lived there, and while it was great I was so thankful to get back to my Harleys back at home! Harley are magical and there's no comparison!

    Add Yamaha Stryker and Raider . Think of the Stryker like a Sportster . But with a 1300cc motor and styling . Then jump up to the Raider . Thats 1854cc of fun right there ! The same design cues on both bikes come off as cool custom bikes with fat rear tires and a raked front end . They get lots of looks and compliments . I know , I had both bikes ! ❤

    Hurray to belt drive bikes... I had 3 bikes with belt, 2 Suzuki single cylinder Savage 650 alias Boulevard S40 & one BMW Scarver using a Rotax single cylinder 650 cc. I remember asking the salesman, who sold me my first Savage, for a second belt. He told me that, if my belt broke, he would give me one for free... He was right, my belts never broke over a 20 years period 😃😃😃

    Honda vtx 1300c. Best, most reliable bike I’ve ever owned.

    Why is the Vulcan 800 not at the top of this list?
    During it manufacturing 1995-2006 it was referred to as “ bulletproof “ by numerous motorcycle magazines, and most every person that owned one.
    I’ve personally owned ( bought and sold ) 16 of these, including all 3 models and still have 2 of the classic or B models in my possession.. I have rode one since 1998 when I bought my first 1995A model.. It was truly a sad day when they stopped being made.

    The bolt was the most uncomfortable bike I have ever owned. It was a good bike but the seat killed me. I bought every accessory they had and as a motor trimmer, even adapted the seat but it wasnt anygood.

    @calvinnoah6372 11 วันที่ผ่านมา

    4cyl Goldwings, i got 3. check oil and water, gas and go. new tires every few years. the new speedometers every 200,000 miles. ask how i know. on chemo now after cancer surgery, riding my 1985 250 Rebel, the gl1000's weight in about 600lbs, 300lbs for the rebel. easy to handle, seems to need a new accelerator pump every few years. best deal is find a 40 year old bike, repair it, ride it. some rubber seals go bad on 40 year old bikes, may need some replacement. good new bikes are enfield, cleanest motors internally from the factory. First thing to say when buying is whats wrong with it, if seller says nothing, best to walk away. no sale , remember that new bikes have stuff wrong broken leaking seals ect.

    @Rich-l7b หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I pretty much agree with you. You should include all the Vulcan 1700s. The problem with the Rebel, it is god awful ugly. Every aspect of that bike is ugly. The pug looking headlight sitting in the forks. The radiator, It stocks out to far instead of following the lines of the frame. The ugly frame. It is not a frame for a cruiser. The shape of the frame. It's made for a sport bike or naked street bike. The tank is badly shaped because of the frame. The engine should have been better designed better. Like a Bonneville

  • @Danol123

    V-Star 1300 is not number one. It’s gearbox has some difference of opinion.
    I’m shocked the Intruder 800 (Blvd C50) was on this list, but not the 1500 (C90) which is considered the king of reliability. Hell it even beats my Goldwing which is considered to be one of the most reliable legends on the road. List could use a less biased fix.

    They are all Harley wannabees! They copied Harley so close its hard to tell the difference just by looking at them! It's sad, Japanese ricers are government subsidized Harley is not and has never been subsidized by the government!
