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.

[@TheLilbigBlack]

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.

[@kennyh5083]

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!

Excellent video, Truly Love all these magnificent Japanese Cruisers 🥇🇯🇵 ❤️🤍!!!

[@jameswhitley678]

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

[@j.s.gleason1124]

I have a 2015 Yamaha XVS 950. Drop dead reliable. Nice riding cruiser with the Cobra intake and exhaust and mustang seat.

[@marcocycles411]

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

[@insufficientdata9845]

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

[@gregsullivan8065]

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.

[@karenspence5808]

09 Custom, here. ❤

[@marcocycles411]

So it’s official now we the Vulcan Crew Riders we going nationwide with this plus it’s free to join welcome to the VCRs club

[@donweaver1600]

Me also it's a keeper

[@WilliamWeaver-wc3mx]

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 ! ❤

[@NotACrat]

I've owned 25+, Tweeke'd all of them My fav's 1. Honda VT500 Ascot 2. Yamaha V Star 650 3. Sportster 1200 Screaming Eagle 4. Katana 650 5. Yamaha Maxium 650

[@timkis64]

[@johnkessler9878]

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

[@joeking1722]

I have over 91,000 miles on my 2000 Kawasaki 800 Drifter.

[@muhammadtauseefrazzaq2429]

You forgot the VTX1800 I know many people who have gone way past 100000 miles without a problem.

[@mortenknoth89]

Suzuki m109r is the same model as vtx 1800

[@sidgrover8628]

I agree the VTX1800 is number one by far 👍😎

[@ddkgarage4567]

Don’t forget about the Honda Valkyrie :) probably the most reliable out of them all.

[@afiqbakri]

I have 1997 Honda Shadow VLX VT600. Already reach 800,000km and still counting running perfectly. Every 3000km I will change new engine oil 15W50. Never gonna sell it. Still in original condition.

[@richardmedeiros4337]

I have a 2001 royal star 1300 with a 150,000 very low cost of repair, and a 2010 900 Vulcan with 15,000 just oil change fun to ride,may have to sell can’t ride anymore but I still try,buy what you like and take care of it have fun,be safe

[@canaryveteran]

I keep hearing well over 50k miles like thats good.... Ive had my brandnew fury for a year and only have 20k miles

[@RaymondPexton]

The honda 1800 is back, put that in your next video

[@RobertTrombley-g6l]

I have a Yamaha drag star classic 650 it’s a 2002 model and only 4k mileage,very reliable

[@markjerorsr1495]

I had a Vulcan 750 for many years but had to sell it after divorce. I do miss that bike. Her? Not so much.

[@alainremi267]

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 😃😃😃

[@RaymondPexton]

Very nice video, we'll done.

[@raymonheath1436]

Yamaha 1600 wildstar, 2003 fabulous bike used to ride over the pyrenees from france to spain for a coffee on the many sunny days i get here all year round😊

[@ichbinmartin]

I sold my (new bought) Intruder C800 with more than 100000km and all that without any problem!

[@jamesswanson4303]

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.

[@blemons100]

What about the vstar 1100? Is that a reliable bike?

[@bigtime474]

Put a Corbin seat , a small windshield on a VT1100 Shadow and roll on!

[@rigger314]

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]

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.

[@michaelmagaw6870]

'04 1100 Shadow Sabre

[@brtn36]

VIRAGO 1100

[@Rich-l7b]

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.

[@LynnKorte-ve4qf]

You are reviewing motorcycles and praising them for durability when most are to new to tell ,so what's up with this ,a factory promotional sales quest,some of the bikes you are reviewing are nothing but trouble

[@dingmagadia4130]

Very informative for us riders

[@NvrGoATM]

The fury is ugly!

[@kennyh5083]

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!

[@leewarry8641]

Ugly as & do get electrical problems ,clutch problems as well as stif clunky gear changes. Mate has had 3 all duds no trade in value at all shops here in oz won’t even take them as trade in . Sorry but when I look at one I feel sick .just trying to con yuppies into thinking it’s a chopper .

[@advdad1129]

Which one are you talking about?

[@ThaElMongo]

I got a 06 Suzuki s40 thumper and you can’t kill the thing , will never sell this bike
