- I wanted to share my confession with you guys. I somehow love giant cruiser motorcycles. I also realize I said 1318cc when its actually 1312cc, go easy on me people. Thanks for stopping by.
I almost got killed by a cager on my HD 883... I bought a 2005 VTX 1300, to just flip and experiment with other brands.... I fell in love with Honda within a a few hours! And a month later I gave her a full service refresh... I'm in love all over again!!
Noice! Yeah, I’ve never ridden an 883 but I can only imagine the difference. Honda baby! It’s a beast for sure.
👍🏻 if you like the 1300 this much then the VTX 1800 monster torque will completely make you fall in love all over again .
I have heard this! It looks like a beast but I think I am good with this much power and fuel inefficiency haha. Great bikes though for sure!
Ride safe man!
I can see why folks have multiple bikes. It's a mood thing.
I feel irresponsible having a few bikes at times but I couldn’t agree more. Some first world problems I guess. But I’m thankful I have choice in the bikes I get to ride, and you’re correct, sometimes it’s a different bike kinda night. Ride safe!
I have a 07 VTX 1300r custom. Best reliable cruiser IMO and hella fast
100%. Such a great bike, some of the mileage I’ve seen people get on these is mind blowing. Rock solid bike.
I just picked up a 2008 1300r. Love it so much
Congrats! I like the R model, looks sweet. Im thinking of turning this one into a bobber then finding an R model to have also. Enjoy it man, they're super great bikes.
Is that 604 for BC by chance!?
@nickandmotorcycletime5246 yep I'm in the vancouver area
@@dragonsbait noice! I used to live in whistler and then in Van. Miss the west coast!
@nickandmotorcycletime5246 we've had great weather all week. Been riding into work all of last week
I own a 07 Honda VTX 1300 r, with Vance& Hines exhaust, great bike.
love my vtx 1300c done a lot of mods to it like 14" apes exhaust and seat, but have been looking at the mt/fz07s i feel like having both would be the best of both worlds
Nice bike! I think I just get used to bikes and want to try other ones out. The MT07 is a great bike for sure, but Im slowly losing my love for it I think. Sounds wicked and rides great though, just a little light and small feeling sometimes. Great for twisties and more entertaining stretches of road though for sure!
Makes me wanna try one one day!
I just noticed i watched your video before when u said u picked it up to flip. Ur brother was right, such a great bike. I would hang on to it for a while.
haha nice man! It already made up my mind for me. It just keeps growing on me every time I ride it.
Use a metal polish on the wheels and that make them stand out!.
I just got myself a 2004 VTX 1300c a few weeks ago. I love it. Has plenty of power. I had a Vstar 650 as my first motorcycle and was great, but then grew tired of it. Then got a mt-07 and love that bike. Was riding that more than the 650. So sold the 650 and got the 1300. So much better. Now I find myself more on that. But you never know what you will like until you jump on something and try it. Like I never thought I would like the crotch rockets. When I tried my friend's 600rr, I loved the seating position. So got myself a Cfmoto 450ss. So much fun ringing the neck out of it. But the 1300 is like riding a couch and is great with 2 up. Moves like it doesn't bother it nun like the 650. Enjoy your bike cause I know you are having as much fun as I am with it.
Right on! Well said man! Couldn't agree more with all those points. I used to have a crotch rocket, sometimes I miss it. Ill eventually get another one to try for a bit, but I think the VTX will always be my highway bike, its a comfy ride with lots of power I think. The MT07 is nice to be showy and want to rip around tight roads and have a mean sounding exhaust haha. Theres not enough time to try all the bikes!!
Kind of funny calling a CF MOTO 450SS A "CROTCH Rocket" It has the looks of one but that's about it,😂 Your friends 600RR has more than double the HP of that Chinese parallel twin that puts out 50hp and the CBR 600RR puts out almost 120HP, No comparison at all, No High RPM shrill of a 15,000RPM 4 cylinder and NO adrenaline rush from acceleration, But I guess it would be a good cheap first bike to learn on for someone though as long as it was cheap... No way I could justify buying a new CF Moto 450ss that MSRP's for $5500 over buying a good used 600-1000cc sportbike that would be better in every way possible....
@Stars-and-Stripes- Most definitely it doesn't have as near hp as the 600rr. But I referring to the seating position. Riding In the fetal position. 🤣🤣
Brother, you know what that feeling you keep saying it feels like a "club" ? It's the feeling of being a BROTHERRRRRR brother. Welcome to the club BROTHERRRRRR.
Haha!! I’m honoured! I will be the best BRO I can be.
I just an 06, fun and comfortable!
Nice! Mines an 06 too, they are great bikes!
NB to AK would be awesome. I did ON to BC a while ago and hope to ride another epic ride again sometime. Go4it!
Good for you! That’s a biggie for sure. Yeah, I’m seeking a large odyssey. Once I find the bike to do it on.
Bro, you get a thumbs up!
I appreciate that big time! Thanks for stopping by.
I Always Rode Inline 4s And Gravitated Toward Sport Bikes ------- And I Always Looked Down On Cruisers I Hate To Admit ----- But I Was Wrong Now I Had To Come Out Of The Closet ---- I Go Both Ways ----- Inline 4s And V Twin Thumpers -------- At 60 Years Old -------- And Now The VTX Is Here To Stay ------- At Least You Figured It Out Early In Life No Explanations Required -------- I Missed Out
you changed my opinion on getting an mt07 wow
No way! That wasn’t my intention. Just speaking my truths. I had no idea what bikes I loved till a tried a few.
Ha!! I knew that wall was local.
Haha. You from Hampton?
@@nickandmotorcycletime5246 Stinky Saint John lol I sold my VTX1300 a few years ago(big mistake) Now I want to buy another one and trying to decide between another VTX1300 or try an1800. I can't make up my mind.
@@theodore1224 Nice! Good old SJ. Yeah mine is a little rough around the edges but I’ve been learning to fix things as I go. There’s a few for sale around here but prices are crazy right now. The 1800 seems pretty incredible but I see more issues with them compared to the 1300. Also gas mileage, not that either get great mileage something to consider since gas is also climbing. Hope you find the bike man!
Bad Ass!!!
haha
I love my 2007 1300 c .
It’s hard not to! They are sweet bikes for sure! Such coaches cruising down the highway! Haha
On my second bike 2006 vtx 1300R
Why the neutral light is on while you're cursing?
That’s the high beam light. I always ride with them on to make people see me and not kill me haha.
