Big Red has turned up the heat with a full line of cruisers for 2008 that range from 250cc to 1800cc and start as low as $3,199.
1800 CC CategoryThe big dog on campus is the VTX 1800cc line of motorcycles; it's Honda's answer to Harley-Davidson's dominant position in the domestic marketplace. The VTX kicks asphalt at the traffic lights and possesses a demon of a torque curve that is between 3,000 and 5,000 rpm. And with two 900cc cylinders of sheer grunt, it is one fast lead sled. VTX1800N MSRP: $13,699 to $16,649 
Neo Retro (new and traditional styling cues) might seem a contradiction in terms, but the VTX1800N is all that - from its swooping fenders and straight-cut mufflers to the LED taillights and gorgeous cast aluminum wheels; it is a stylish head-turner. Call it throwback beauty with a modern-day touch. The VTX1800N is available in Black, Dark Orange Metallic (Spec 1), Black with Black Custom Art, and Dark Orange Metallic (Spec 2).
VTX1800T MSRP: $14,899 to $16,449 
The T in VTX1800T stands for touring. The VTX1800T is custom built for show and go right off the showroom floor. Thanks to its full complement of touring accessories that come standard, it is the perfect cruiser built for the perfect road trip. It combines a massive 106hp 1795cc V-twin with all the touring touches you could ever need: roomy saddlebags, big windscreen, cozy passenger backrest, and more. The VTX1800T is offered in Black, Black/Candy, Black Cherry, and Black/Metallic Blue. The 27.4-inch seat is trimmed with chrome-plated steel studs for a distinctive custom look and provides all-day comfort.
VTX1800F MSRP: $13,499 to $15,799 
For those who favor a cruiser with sporty high-performance styling, the VTX1800F blends custom looks with big V-twin power. Built long and lean, this machine is equal parts dragbike and marauder, sporting a low gunfighter-style seat, chromed 2-into-1 pipes, chopped fenders, and 10-spoke wheels. The VTX1800F is available in Black and Candy Red Tribal.
1300 CC CategoryFor 2008, the popular VTX1300 is available in three grades including VTX1300C, VTX1300T and VTX1300R. Each bike comes as a turnkey package and comes loaded direct from the factory. Your job? Get out and ride. VTX1300C Price MSRP: $9,699 
2008 VTX1300C The VTX1300C embodies the DNA of the VTX family line with its classic styling and clean lines. Enthusiasts of the brand will appreciate the new-for-2008 slash-cut dual pipes, beefy 1312cc V-twin, and sleek shaft final drive. Custom cast wheels and meaty tires wrapped in bobbed fenders complete the picture of a machine that was meant to rule. The VTX1300C is available in Black, Metallic Silver, Pearl Yellow, and Candy Red. VTX1300T Price MSRP: $10,999 to $11,099 
Honda understands the needs of the touring biker and built the 2008 VTX1300T, fully decked out for cross-country travel straight from the factory, in a turnkey package that's both stylish and functional over the long haul. It's built with the exact same purpose as its VTX1800T sibling except for a smaller power plant and price point. The "T" comes with a large touring windshield, spacious leather saddlebags, and handy passenger backrest. It is the perfect choice for riders seeking big performance. The "T" is available in Black, Metallic Silver, and Metallic Red. VTX1300R Price MSRP: $9,599 to $9,699 
Oh yeah! This is what I'm talking about...classic old-school cool. The VTX1300R ("R" stands for retro) comes with larger fenders, chrome-hooded headlight, and timeless tank-mounted instruments. Riding low is a snarling 1312cc V-twin growl through staggered dual exhaust. The VTX1300R is available in Black, Pearl White, and Dark Blue Metallic. 750 CC CategoryThe 750-class cruiser looks like their big brothers but can come in (depending on options) at half the price. It has everything you need and nothing you don't. It's a Hot Rod with classic lines. Shadow Aero Price: $6,799 - $7,099 
The middle weight cruisers have full-sized looks, equipped with 750cc performance without the full-sized price tag. Stunning is one way to describe its long, low, retro styling, simply drenched in chrome from tip to tail, and boasting classic fenders, spoked wheels, and five all-new colors including: Candy Dark Red, Metallic Silver/Black, Black/White, Candy Dark Red/White, and classic Black. The Aero is the perfect machine for riders wanting more for less. Shadow Spirit Price: $6,799 - $7,099 
The Spirit has rugged retro styling, a big-bike look and feel, low seat height, athletic handling, and a price that makes it easy to own. Bobbed fenders wrap around low tires, while dual shorty pipes snake behind a super-low 25.7-inch seat, delivering classic custom lines, light steering, and agility. Style, performance, and comfort - talk about the best of all worlds! Comes in five colors including: classic Black, Metallic Silver, Candy Dark Red/Flame, Ultra Blue Metallic/Flame, and Metallic Silver/Flame. The 2008 special color of Metallic Silver/Flame will be produced in a limited color run of less than 500 units. 250 CC CategoryLooking for an entry-level motorcycle to get started? Honda has been making small displacement bulletproof motorcycles since the 50's. You can't go wrong with Big Red. Rebel Price: $3,199 
There are entry-level cruisers, and then there's the Rebel, which sports more style and user-friendly performance than any other 250-class machine out there. Dependable Honda four-stroke power, exceptional handling, styling as classic as it is attractive, and an all-new Silver paint scheme...what's not to like about this great entry-level cruiser on the road? Comes in Black or Silver Metallic. Back to Metric News... |
