TG MotoRider-VTX 1800 Complete Review and Ride

[@mr.solitude3352]

Welcome to the VTX 1800 club. Been riding for more than four decades, rode many different models, and the VTX 1800 has a character unlike any other bike. It'll be my last bike until I can't ride. Rubber side down, Kemosabe.

[@istvanbalogh8254]

I agree with you completely. This will be my last bike I’ll own .usually after a few months or so I flip my bikes for a decent profit then move onto another cycle from other metric bikes to of course Harleys. I’ve been lucky in buying cycles at great prices and on the average I manage to get net profits of $2500-3000 on each bike I’ve purchased over the past 5 years. Keep riding bro, and always remember this…. It’s not what you ride, it that you RIDE! Stay safe and blessed bro

[@trukngal]

I absolutely love mine

[@sgteduardo2146]

Yep same here. I bought and flipped many bikes. And selling my 02 Honda VTX 1800N was the only bike I regretted selling, and my last bike. That was 7 yrs ago. Late summer, early fall days are when I missed it the most. Well, last weekend I just purchased a 2007 Honda VTX 1800R with a batwing. Man, I missed that power! And almost forgot there isn’t a gas gauge lol. I will see what’s out there.

Great video as well. I just got 2002 1800R definitely a great bike. Do you know if the pipes have slip ons or does the whole exhaust have to be replaced? Also where can I get some loud pipes ? They are hard to find where I am. Any help appreciate it

[@mmerc364]

Picked up a 2008 VTX1800 T3(Tourer model) this past summer with only 8.5K miles on it! Absolutely enjoy the heck out of cruising on this bike! All the VTX models look great and have allot of horsepower! I was able to go 190 miles (with reserve) on a trip. Maybe could have gone 200 miles but didn't want to risk pushing this beast, they're really heavy! Enjoy riding your VTX! You own a bike that's hard to come by and sought after by enthusiasts. Maybe 1 day Honda will realize how popular the VTX series is and come out with the VTX 2000!

[@tgmotorider.narratinglifeo3480]

I wish they would come out with a 2000 cc v twin. Thank you for watching and I am definitely digging this bike. I love my Thunderbird 1600 but I find myself on this VTX a little more.

Honda does not play the displacement game. Id rather they make another 1800 but bump the HP to 135 and Torque to 160

I have an 02 1800c. These were made in Ohio at the Marysville Plant. I chose to put progressive forks springs and 444's on the rear with dunlop elite 4 tires. Not any softer of a ride but keeps the tires glued in the corners with noticeable improvement.

I rode my vtx to work then when I got home I jumped on the Yamaha roadstar 1600 went round the block and got back on the vtx 🥰💕💕🥰💕💕💕 erytime I throttle!!!

[@istvanbalogh8254]

I purchased my VTX 1800C with the factory black n red flame paint job which looks like a Custom paint job. My VTX is a 2006 with original owner who sadly passed away and the son didn’t ride so, him and his mom after a year of deciding to just keep it or sell it, they opted to sell it, lucky for me I was the only one that was willing to drive 120 miles to view the bike and told the seller I’m definitely interested and I’ll bring cash, his asking price was at $5200 but I had $3200 in one pocket and $2000 cash in my other pocket . When I seen the bike, it was like brand new with not one scratch on it, he had all the original receipts from the invoice when he purchased it from the Ohio Honda dealership to him having the engine dyno tuned with Vance and Hines pipes and K&N filter, and Bridgestone BT-020 200/60R16 Rear... which makes it handle and sound better Then my 2000 Harley Davidson Softail Springer, and that sounds sweet. I offered him $3200 cash and -- he excepted my offer. The bike had 17400 original miles on it 🎉🎉! Now my favorite bike I’ve owned thus far which is over 7 cycles from Harleys to Suzuki C90 boulevard. Harley Davidson Sportster/ road king road glide . Yamaha 1700cc bar none this Honda is my go to cycle now. The best deal I ever dreamt of having . Not sure why Honda discontinued this VTX CRUISER, all I know it’s one hell of a ride . Talk about being at the right place at the right time!! What a deal of a lifetime!!

[@tgmotorider.narratinglifeo3480]

That’s great you got a deal on that one, you just can’t beat the price per horsepower. I’ll bet the Vance and Hines pipes sound good. I know what you mean out of all the bikes in my garage I tend to favor the 1800 as well. Thanks for watching!

It put out 95 horsepower and 118 ftlbs of torque at the rear wheel. It has a mustang seat and I put handlebar risers. It took a 5,700 mile road trip this year. It was very comfortable. It was very comfortable. I payed $4,500 for mine. It had just under 27;000 miles on it. It now has 45,750 miles. I also put progressive rear shocks on it. They ride much better than the stock shocks. I have heard people getting 200,000 miles out of a VTX.

Just bought a 2002 VTXC, real old school motorcycle

[@Clutch_Kick187]

In 2007 I bought an 05 1800N S3 brand new.. It had been sitting on my local Honda's showroom floor for a bit over 2 years.. Orig msrp was like $14,500 and I got it $4k off at $10,500.. No one was buying them at that time for some reason.. It was fast for a cruiser back then but after trying a couple street glides and letting them lower in value, I sold it in 2012 and got a street glide.. The fairing, gauges, radio, cruise control, abs, hard bags, and the sound.. That was the only thing I hated on the VTX was the sound.. I had V&H long shots and a nice intake & good tune, but just a horrible tractor sound.. It was noise, just not nice noise.. My harley with a cam sounds amazing.. When these still cost 5-8k bucks I would rather spend $8-10k on a nice bagger harley..

[@mattdonna9677]

3 days ago I bought my neighbors 1-owner 2002 VTX 1800, immaculate, new tires +brakes, 3,000$. It's a lot more fun than my 50cc Yamaha Zuma and as much fun as my 1st generation V-Max. P.S. Good and honest review !

[@tgmotorider.narratinglifeo3480]

Thank you I appreciate you watching!

[@mmerc364]

After a longer ride to and from Ocean City, MD, I definitely agree with your assessment that on the VTX 1800 you ride in more of a "C" type position! I also wish the handlebars were swept back just a little more. It would make for a more comfortable, laid back ride!

Get the stock handle bars off a R..or S..and floor boards..that's what I have..comfortable for me..im 5'11

He asked when I’m going to update mine. Mine is set up perfect for me! Wtf would I change from this monster 1800?? Progressive shocks and front springs and I fit a 200 on the back replacing the stock 180. Ultimate seat, forward controls, Cobra swept floorboards replaced C model pegs.

The M109 may look better but I've heard tons of complaints about the shifting feeling super clunky on them and jumping out of 2nd gear pretty often. I just picked up an 02' VTX 1800 the other day and it is a SERIOUS upgrade from my Suzuki C50 Boulevard. It also just reached only 20k miles today so I'm sure it's still got plenty of life left in it. I thought Harleys sounded cool before I got this beast (yes, it has Vance and Hines pipes), but the way this thing roars when you push it makes me giggle every time. These bikes are definitely a keeper!

[@tgmotorider.narratinglifeo3480]

@@kutzelberg8088 I couldn't give you an honest answer / opinion since I personally have only had Vance and Hines before, but just by listening to some they honestly don't seem all that different. They both probably have their own distinct sound, but either one you go with will definitely sound loud N' proud

[@bradanderson1024]

I just can't fiqure out why Honda did not put this 1800cc engine in the fury? They would have sold thousands. They build a chopper with a small engine with no where to go. Who would customize further a bike with a boring small engine. They should have kept the 1800 and stopped making the 1300. I went to buy a fury years ago. Found out they only had a 1300. I walked out very disappointed. How stupid can they get, I thought that they want to fail.

[@tgmotorider.narratinglifeo3480]

Yeah I’m with you on that. Considering the market segment they are appealing to, which is us you would think they would have kept the 1800 twin. The only thing I can think is that they figured they had it covered with the Valkyrie even though that’s a V-6.

[@johnwayne7128]

If you want a fast bike in corners get a sport bike.. lol I have a meanstreak and I rode this vtx and it's no comparison.. vtx smokes it.. I wish the meanstreak had more power as I do love the look of it but it's a turtle

[@realBkay]

I had a 2008 VTX 1800 F1. The first 2 years I had it, I hated it. The last 4 years I had it, I loved it. Should have never sold it. My doesn’t Honda make it anymore? B/c they want u to buy that dogshit Fury or spend $25k on a Gold Wing - “the cheap one”. BAWHAHAHAHA!!! I traded my VTX for a 2014 Valkyrie, in 2015. I love the Valkyrie but I wish I still had the VTX, too.
