    Did a 2,000 mile trip round Europe this year and it was faultless. Fuel consumption was about 51mpg which I thought was good.
    1300s has plenty of power and torque. Riding position is good and for pillion. Controls all work perfectly. Handling is ok. Headlight gives a clear view.

    Easy to ride. Well balanced. Easy to shift. LOTS of low end torque. Great gas mileage. Easy to customize.
    This is a great first bike. All you have to do is change the oil, fill the gas tank and check the air pressure and go.

    Great bike and great price. I am 6'2" and feel very comfortable on my 1300c. I think it looks better than any HD in it's class. I bought it over HDs.

    I had a 1100 Sabre prior to purchasing my VTX 1300C. I love the step up in power but sure can tell the difference in weight. I love the bike on the road, nice and heavy. I've had the VTX only a couple of week now so I'm going to have to get used to the additional weight. Overall I think it's a reall ...

    Would I buy another one? Yes. Comfortable to ride, and seat hight is just right for short folks, engine is quite smooth and not too loud.
    Only problems are that the speedo is off a bunch, and the side embelembs do not fit real good, too much plastic on engine, needs a tach, and temp gague, antifreez ...

    Awesome bike! looks great, rides great and it's a Honda. I just a bought a new 2007 Honda VTX1300C 3 weeks ago. I now have 900 miles on it. I had it back to the dealer for the 500 mile service and they asked me if anything else needed to be looked at. I said it's a Honda, no everything is perfect.

    All around nice ride, would by the 18 next time though. Braking could be a little bettler up front, and the front springs should be be a lot stiffer, too soft up front for braking, handling, and ride. But progressive suspension fixs all that.

    Overall I would give the bike a 8.7 out of 10. You can't beat Honda reliability, and the price new makes this bike a 10. Good power when short shifting or getting on it. However, it falls off fast after peak torque. I would recommend anyone who loves to ride and not want to go broke in the process t ...

    Sold my superglide last year 'cause I was out of work. Wanted to ride but not enough money for an HD. I've had Honda's in the past and loved them, so figured I try it again.
    Kind of dissappointed about no tach and no fuel gauge. My Superglide had both and write where you could see them. Position of ...

    I have parked my Wideglide because of always having to work on it (it is a 2004). Every 500-1000 miles the HD has to be tuned up. The Honda VTX 1300 C is dependable. Change the oil and check the tire pressure, then ride, a lot. If you buy the bike new, don't nurse it around too much. Ride it like y ...
