2014 Honda CTX1300 Review

[@MrSiak67]

I bought this bike a month ago and have loved every second on it. Heading up the mountains shows what fun this bike can be. I am shorter, 5'7 and have a hard time finding a bike to fit my legs. This bike is a lot of fun.

[@jDot2414]

Is insurance expensive on this ? Also is there radio?

[@itisaporsche]

John, still have it 6 years later? I was thinking about this vs. an older Goldwing

[@nehemiahimmanuel4689]

A trick : watch series at Flixzone. I've been using it for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.

[@giovannianthony1675]

@Nehemiah Immanuel Yea, been using Flixzone for years myself :)

[@softbingan]

After 8 years, it still looks great

[@KillerShark73]

Not the type of bike that I normally am interested in but for some reason I like it.

[@KeystoneTexan]

KillerShark73 I like it too! I say on one at a bike show and it fit me good.

[@brandonm2009]

I have one of these, and having owned nearly 20 bikes in my lifetime this is #1. Its so comfortable, its like riding a couch. The power is acceptable, but the low end torque is where this bike really sines. You can get up and go from a stand still and clear an intersection in the blink of an eye. I like to know the power is there if I need it when I'm city riding. Don't let the weight fool you, I swear this bike handles just as well as my old 1983 Yamaha Maxim 650 I use to own (453lbs). I swear you can toss this 745lb monster around like a dirt bike. Best bike I've ever owned, hand down. I'll be keeping it for years to come.

[@340rps]

You must be a Honda spokesman. The CTX is hardly a great bike as I own one too. Have owned many Hondas which I would any day take over the CTX. You must live where the roads are perfectly smooth to say it's like riding on a couch. without a doubt one of the worse bikes I ever owned.

[@bbgmarine]

I have the CTX 1300 and it is a very comfortable bike. Smooth as silk and the ride in my opinion is very good.

[@TrinityWilderness1]

“Sines” indeed! Sweet Ride!

[@gavinthroop2839]

Negative, this bike is disgustingly underpowered. 81 hp for over 700 pounds is unacceptable.

[@willsvidsch]

@@gavinthroop2839truth needs something more like 125-130 for that much weight that’s nearly 1000 Lbs with driver/passenger

[@daveclark9904]

I've been a Harley owner for the past twenty years; own two currently (Wide Glide & Street Glide). Bought one of these last month; in the spring my Harleys will both be sold. This CTX1300 does everything my wife & I want; in a more relaxed, refined manner. It needs cruise control (McCruise makes a good one), the taller windscreen, and highway pegs and it's ready to hit the road. Lighter, lower, smaller than an F6B. Excellent bike.

[@djredohio8377]

Dave Clark ... is it easy to retune for more hp?

[@berniemadoff7837]

Would you recommend floorboards instead of pegs?

[@daveclark9904]

I actually like footpegs better; but the highway pegs are a must. Most of the time I'm on cruise control & the highway pegs when riding..@@berniemadoff7837

[@theperson7718]

I wished that Honda had stepped down 100cc's and used the VFR1200 engine so that it could've been DCT like the 700 model and it also might have done better in sales.

[@Philscbx]

It should have been pushed to 1500 and this is the best form factor for shaft drive. No power loss of right angle drive like my Honda1800VTwin Neo. Granted torque rips your elbows off.

[@russellcupples2170]

The V Twins are old school and I love em but from an EPA standpoint them being old technology meeting the regulations is getting harder I would imagine .Stupid EPA.

[@The_Touring_Jedi]

Those V4 engines 1300 does not even need valves set at 80.000 miles. Think about that.

[@cascadianpuget]

Beauty is relative. I sat on one today and wanted to leave the store with it. Awesome bike.

[@renegadebiker24]

CaptPuget That is very true. It is an awesome bike. Check out my channel for some vlogs I have done with it recently. I am planning a trip to Sturgis at the beginning of next month, so check out my channel for the upcoming uploads as I get ready for the trip.

[@340rps]

sitting on it is one thing, ride it and then see what you say.

[@riderlens8253]

Good video and sound - I like hearing the engine through all gears and revs, such an important part of owning a bike.

[@Winterstick549]

Easy to adjust the valves, like on a Goldwing flat six, or BMW boxer twin.

[@qb101]

I had one of these and flogged it all around the midwest. I got a job at a company that happens to make motorcycles, so I had to sell it. I still miss it. The V4 is the best motor a motorcycle can be built with. I loved that bike. If it had electronic cruise control, it would be the perfect machine.

[@CaptHollister]

When discussing the sound system you can see that the bike is equipped with a taller windshield. It would have been nice to have more footage of bikes equipped with this option. If I were buying this bike there is no doubt I would want a taller screen. I would also want highway pegs. Does anyone make a set for this bike ?

[@GhostKyng]

I love that bike. It has seen me through some great rides. My longest ride so far as to be from Tn to Kansas City Missouri which was about 8 hours. It was smooth, clean, and i kept up with my old man who tries to leave me in the dust lol

[@RobertBrumley60]

7,000 rpm isn't much compared to other motorcycles, but it's a hell of a lot more than a Harley.

[@340rps]

You are comparing apples to oranges! Two very different motors

[@nicholasmapes]

My built sportster engine redlines around 7k However the power stops increasing around 5k so there really isnt a reason to go to 7

[@codyecherd8504]

It's a v4

[@tinybigbus1873]

Excellent review. Other KZbinrs should watch this video to learn how to make a review video. Thank you

[@SkyeRocket]

Honda really, REALLY fumbled by not offering this with DCT like the CTX700 and Goldwing. This would've been the absolute perfect middle ground.

[@rapier5]

An overhead cam V4, and a 7000 RPM redline? It's insane. Honda is insane. How about 9000 RPM and 120HP, or more? Stiffen up the suspension, it would have been a beast. Honda is nuts. Making the machine it knows we need. Approved by mom.

[@bigboi9611]

Thats the st1300

[@richard9444]

Im not a Honda fan , but is it me or is this a really nice bike?

[@MarkPalmer1000]

I had a '14 CTX 700, and I test rode one of these CTX 1300's used recently. I was looking for something better performing than the 700, but this just wasn't that bike and I couldn't bring myself to buying it. The model is an orphan, and I see why it never sold well. When comparing it to bikes like the FJR1300 and Concours 14, it's not hard to see why this bike was a dud and was available as a new model year "leftover" for a long time. Just comes down to there being better bikes out there in this size/displacement class for the buck.

[@boomerhgt]

Wonder if the clutch is heavy as my left hand is compromised that's why I'm riding a Africa Twin DCT

[@kogi04]

What was up with that random clip with the locomotive? Seemed misplaced in this video.

[@JoeGP]

well he said Honda took them there so i guess he had to say something about it.

[@classikz]

I agree, I was a second away from closing the video..

[@caffeineman72]

Honda killed this too soon, it needed time for aftermarket support to develope and a little refining, like fatter tires, cruise control, and adjustable windshield. But, for 2014 it was a good first outing.

[@JoeMama-vj8es]

Wish they still made these. I'd like to replace my Pacific Coast with one.

[@sephiroth1386]

Haven't rode one before, but I got to check it out and sit on them at the International Motorcycle Show. It was pretty comfortable, and like he said, a nice riding postion

[@christopherhouck3846]

“The 700 is doing well.” *Honda immediately stops producing the 700 from lack of sales*

[@HawkGTboy]

I saw one at a red light the other day, it looked like a nice bike.

[@PrinceKlutz]

The liquid-cooled V4 is intriguing, as is the fairing with the shorty screen and integrated bags, but no cruise control, no gear indicator, no sixth gear? Exactly what does the upsell model get me?

[@renegadebiker24]

Nomad Ryder Cruise control is not standard on this bike, and neither is a gear indicator, but why would you need that if you know how to ride a motorcycle??? The sixth gear is for, in my opinion, long hauls, but then again, as an owner of this bike, why would I need it, when it has ABS, Traction Control, which are both important, and bluetooth capability which will work well with upcoming helmets as well as the latest smartphones, The upsell model, I think, gets you a better bike for your money, instead of having to add it in at a later date and pay extra for it, plus it is an all LED bike, which makes it brighter when riding at night as you will see from some of my videos on my channel that will show that.

[@PrinceKlutz]

Why do you need ABS and traction control if you know how to ride??? Don't bother to reply I won't follow this snarkfest

[@renegadebiker24]

Nomad Ryder LOL, It is standard with a version of this bike. Why, do you have something against ABS or Traction control on a bike? snarkfest?? LOL Why would you not need ABS or Traction control?

[@bubu84pl]

The locomotive fits Honda baggers :D Last year I had an F6B for tests and I took it for a photoshoot to the locomotive museum.

[@radsdad1]

Have to wonder about the honesty of this review when he likes the mirrors.

[@Zeddeck]

It's a shame we never got a stripped down cruiser or naked bike to show off that engine. Can't think of many bikes with a longitudinal 90° v4.

[@ViceVersaMusik1]

If I were to Buy a Touring Motorcycle, This Bike would Definitely be in my Top 3 list... . . Amongst the BMW R1200RT And The Ducati Multistrada!!

[@marksmith6837]

I currently ride an '06 ST1300. It dynos stock 114.1rwhp and 101 lbft. I don't see why I'd want to step down to a detuned version? Does it cut a hundred pounds? My bags pop off with the turn of the key.

[@renegadebiker24]

Mark Smith You will have to see for yourself, The total bike's weight is a little over 700 pounds, but it is a great bike.

[@moshealex]

I ride 2012 ST too. Nothing wrong with this bike and I love it. I tested CTX1300 before buy ST and I bought ST 1300. Last CTX was sold in my local Powersports store brand new for 12K from 19K originally MSRP. No more ST1300 ,no more CTX1300. All bike is good for somebody. Ride safe, guys.

[@TerribleTimes]

so tryin to convince my soon to be 70 year old dad to trade in his ST1300 in on this byke, ol man has a hard time swinging a leg over the ST, i think it perfect!

[@riderlens8253]

Technically another strong product from Honda, and of course I like that engine, being an ST1300 rider. But, the styling is going to take some time to grow on most people. I'd love to have one for a few weeks with both windscreens to evaluate.

[@340rps]

technically a huge failure!

[@nicholasmapes]

I think it would look much better with a trunk. Like a "mini" goldwing

[@donweaver1600]

Have honda stopped making this I do want to try one .I think they should of made 2 options 1 without fairing and one with

[@numbone2945]

It's funny he didn't seem to clue in to the connection of the locomotives at the museum to the super low rpm torquey tune of the bike's engine.

[@556suppressor]

Needs bigger saddle bags for starters. Apparently you can add a Top Case. Come pretty close to being a perfect motorcycle.

Is this CTX1300 or FJR1300 good for a new rider (meaning no past experience in motorcycles)?

[@caseyalx1651]

It was my first bike. I had no problems whatsoever. I still love it.

[@TheWillingCoyote]

The rider scraped several times, with what seemed to be easy corners. This bike doesn't work well for heavier riders who actually lean into the turns.

[@darkokalinic2501]

Where is the screen? How much cost proper touring screen?

[@RabbiEfrayimShekelmantz]

They need to bring back the CX500 and GL500 bikes with modern comstars.

[@anthonykrug1138]

Agree !

[@patricklogsdon1]

Honda designed the bike well but forgot the mirrors!. I had to lower the bars to keep the brake cylniders from hogging the view in the small mirrors. They should have set them up higher. Anyone else?

[@renegadebiker24]

+Patrick Logsdon I did a video about the mirrors, and how I had tried to adjust to the way the mirrors are placed. I have yet to lower the bars on mine. I was told by a few people that I would have to get a short riser and pit it on. It is on my channel under the playlist "My Motorcycle Related Reviews" and the video is called "Arm Positioning when riding a CTX 1300" , and in my playlist called "Motorcycle Vlog" with the title "Trip around Springdale part 1" and "Trip around Springdale part 2" where I discuss on how I wanted to lower the bars on my motorcycle, but I did not do it, so I ended up trying to position my arms when I ride. I think that they should have done that by making it higher, but I am wondering if it would have taken away from the overall design of the bike.

[@imgoingforaride]

Do you have any pictures of the CTX!300 with the topbox fitted to it all ? I would be interested to how it all looks together .

[@renegadebiker24]

imgoingforaride check out my channel for some videos of this same bike. If you like it, please comment, like and subscribe.

[@gyice]

It is odd first its called the CTX but really has nothing, nada, Zip in common with the 700 and the sad part is they didn't try and bridge off of their 700 market, so you develop a Market against the grain with the built in storage and the Automatic (Wonderful) by the way, and then you crush it by not offering anything higher in that style of Bike? Did Honda just get up one day and say hey look we have these extra CTX insignia's, now I know that this new 1300 Sherman has nothing in common with the early CTX line but did I mention we have these extra insignia's after all it's not like it's a car, it's just a Bike.

[@renegadebiker24]

gyice It is the 700's bigger brother, and it is a great bike. Granted, it is not automatic, but I have yet to see a CTX 1300 that has an automatic transmission. I ride it whenever I can, and you can see it on my channel. The CTX 1300 is a bigger biker than the 700, yet has a little more power than the 700. The CTX 1300 is the next generation in their motorcycles, and from personal experience, I have to tell you, for a bike that has ABS and Traction Control as well as bluetooth capability, it is great.

[@340rps]

So you like the anemic rear linked brakes? This bike is almost dangerous as you have to over use the front brake when stooping . There are reasons the CTX 1300 was discontinued after one year.

[@kevinkeys1383]

Motorcycle M., Inseam on 5'11" fellow whom drove ctx1300 ?

[@Loudpedal10]

No cruise control? Honda seems to be a slow learner.

[@onoff314]

Must agree, pretty dumb to not have it on this bike

[@ellomirza]

They're doing a new thing now where they have a base and deluxe model of most bikes. The base is there for a lower msrp to advertise and get you to the stealership and the deluxe is the one with the color and features you really want for $2K more.

[@richdubbya]

I wound up buying one . I chose it over a Guzzi 1400 California. I really like it. It isn't a perfect bike but what it is is a mile munching bike that seems like a spawn of a Guzzi that got gang raped by an Acura. Super refined , comfy seat and it handles well for a cruiser. I call it a Goldwing Jr. After a bit of accessories like a tall wind screen, the luggage box, fog lights and heated grips you're ready for the IronButt. Big drawback is the overly soft suspension and the lack of aftermarket. All in all a great touring bike.

[@richdubbya]

+Robert S. I agree on the character.. I also own 2 V11s.. I think for me it was the LED headlights and the audio. just seemed super posh. I'll own a Cali one day. I am a Guzzihead.

[@cesarr5006]

Richard, I started with a Guzzi v7 special for first bike; wanted the California. Guzzi was fun but leaked a lot of oil the firsts 1000 miles. I do t have time to visit dealerships. Step up to a CTX much larger but smooth and reliable and no leaks....Great choice to go with Japanese engineering

[@renegadebiker24]

Congrats Richard. Do you still have the motorcycle?

[@richdubbya]

+renegadebiker24 I do. I still. like it a lot. I've basically added every accessory to to . Fogs, grips, trunk, shield, etc. I will be taking it to Racetech to fix my soupy suspension . My biggest issue with the CTX is accessing the battery and fuse box. It's a puzzle of flimsy tabs and just a pain. Other than that I love it. it is not a fast motorcycle but it wasn't made to be fast. it's a mile muncher. I have sport bikes for speed...

[@340rps]

The last thing this bike is , is a cruiser. No resemblance at all.

[@firstime911]

How is it with the ground clearance..?

[@renegadebiker24]

Saran Monaraks It is good with the ground clearance in my opinion, as long as you do not treat it rough.

[@EricFayard]

I rode down and up on the Tail of the Dragon and never scraped the pegs. On a few of the video reviews, riders are pushing this bike like a sport bike and do scrape the pegs. In real world operation, I have not.

[@renegadebiker24]

***** Well that is good. I hope to ride the tail of the dragon one day. I am going to try the Arkansas Dragon first, before the Tail of the Dragon. Did you ever run into any semis while on the Tail of the Dragon recently?

[@EricFayard]

renegadebiker24 I think trucks over 30' are prohibited now. I did run into a group of six Corvettes however :)

[@rubensahak9178]

Regular ST1300 weighs less and makes MORE HP and handles better so why not just buy ST1300

[@101vph]

why buy this instead of a st1300 ? ...only if you want less practicality & less hp maybe a good choice

You don't need the rock guitar in the background.

[@JohnnyRebKy]

When it comes to that type of bike I just prefer a inline 4 engine 🙄. It looks cool but I like the scream of a 4

[@kfshman]

The question is how many times did this guy say "you know"?

I'm just going to cast my vote now, for a CTX1300N. :-]

[@renegadebiker24]

+Siper2 Well, I do not think they make this bike anymore, thanks to the poor marketing like this video shows. I really wish they would stop scraping the exhaust, and that seems to be a common thing between the MotoUSA and these guys. You can get one now for $11,750 now, and that is the one I own, and that is the Deluxe version.

[@Siper2]

+renegadebiker24 Gotcha. :)

[@Enonymouse_]

+renegadebiker24 You ever sat on one of these and then compared it to another bike. I sat on it, and it reminded me of straddling a huge beer keg, it's way to wide. Yes if you can still find them they are going for cheap. The fuel mileage was less than impressive. Many factors played a part in it's demise, marketing is the least of it.

[@richardshort4587]

@@DG-ie5ip Perhaps that’s true, most decision are made with the almighty dollar front and centre. But sometimes to make money you have to spend money. Most dealerships I visit these days their focus is on adventure style riding or dirt bikes. Some bikes have been cannibalized into sport touring monstrosity’s but none have the je ne sais quoi as the actual designed touring or sports touring machines of the past. Maybe I’m to old for these new styles and set in my ways to much. But these earlier touring and sports touring machine had an air and grace about them that’s missing in today’s line ups except for the Goldwing and some BMW’s.

[@AverageDaveVideos]

I love the look of the bike... except the front end. Shame, kind of a cool setup, but just looks ugly to me.

[@annettenpaul]

A modern liquid cooled 1300cc V4 that makes only 83 hp? The KTM 1290 twin makes that much on one cylinder! Of course in 2 years they'll bump it up, then again 3 years after that. Eventually it will have the missing power 'restored', and a lot of unhappy first year buyers.

[@Mrslowmo212]

Dude that's a completely unrelated comparison! Your bike, which is an KTM 1290, is a performance bike or a streetfighter so to say like the Kawasaki Z1000 or Ducati Streetfighter 848. The Honda CTX1300 like the Goldwing, is design for long distance cruising and comfort, not speed or performance wise and 83HP is more than enough for highway speed. If you really want to compare horsepower choose a bike in the right category: KTM is belong in the performance category (sport, super sport and even sport touring) while this bike is more in the cruising category (Harley Davidson bagger line like Road King, Streetglide or other brands). Seriously have you ever seen a touring bike race with a sport bike? It's like an armadillo try to outrun a leopard, imagine that!

[@annettenpaul]

Mrslowmo212 Well, how about a BMW F800ST, an 800cc twin that makes 80 HP. About the same as the Honda, but with 500cc and 200 lbs less! And only two cylinders. Makes no sense to me, but if 83 hp is more than enough, they should have given it 60 hp, like a stock Harley.

[@Mrslowmo212]

Well there's a reason why it's called a sport touring: It's lightweight, has a sport (performance) engine and can cruise for a long distance with comfortable ride posture! And for the hp part, well lets say that 83hp sounds more attractive than 60hp, don't you agree? So yeah for people who preferred performance like you this bike makes no sense at all! But for certain people (maybe middle age or older) who want a bike that look modern and sporty with capability of long touring then this bike is for them. Personally I'd rather take the bonneville t100 and convert it into touring for budget bike or just take a damn Road King with the same price! (I love Harley btw)

[@Mrslowmo212]

Paul Darling Btw, you should do some research on torque/rpm and horsepower relationship. It will tell you why high displacement engine gives out so little power (harley, this bike and other cruisers) and why low displacement engine gives out such a high power (your bike, cbr1000 or 600). Here's an easy to understand explanation www.totalmotorcycle.com/school-SectionSixB.htm

[@JohnnyRebKy]

Make a cool bike with a engine that won't rev 🤦. I'd. Buy a Harley if I wanted to redline at 7000rpm .

[@jimberger7362]

Nice bike but they really screwed up the hp from 115 hp down to 89 hp ! WHY? WHO KNOWS! That’s typical Honda! I wanted a revamped ST1300 with a cruise control but they came out with this thing WITH THESE AWFUL LOOKING USELESS BAGS ! so i bought an FJR1300!

[@340rps]

This guy evidently never rode the bike as the mirrors suck! suspension is horrid, hit a decent bump and it will jar your rib cage. I guess Honda is entitled to a blunder once in a while.

[@Peruss]

+renegadebiker24 ignore him, man, I absolutely love the look and overall performance of this unique bike! Enjoy your awesome ride (safely), sir!

Samer Hamod Thanks, will do. He used to be a former subscriber, and yet he does not know what he is talking about, probably because he never owned one like we do. :) Will do. :) When you get a chance, stop by my channel and see what I have done so far, and if you want to, subscribe to it. I upload consistently. :) I am making a video of my first oil change, and I am running into some problems along the way. The next part I have to do is the oil filter change, and it seems that the oil filter strap metal wrench is not working. Going to have to get something else.

renegadebiker24 sorry for the late response! Just subbed, but I gotta clarify something: I got to ride a friend '14 CTX, I unfortunately dont own one (yet :) ). Anyways, love your content and way to explaining things, your channel might be very useful when I get my hands on one of those beauties. :D

SilentPrayingmanTis I got mine as a demo for about 19,000 for the Deluxe model, and I was the only one in Northwest Arkansas that had it at the time, now the dealership has been selling some more of them. I think the Deluxe model probably goes for more than 19,000.
