Motorcycle specifications HondaVTX 1800 C 2002 A powder keg
A big custom bike with an upside-down fork, that should be enough to give you a hint. Once again, Honda hits hard and overturns established values. The new twin powering this power cruiser measures almost 1,800 cm3. An enormous mill that belches out no less than 106 hp and a whopping 16 mkg of torque. Figures normally seen on machines prepared for drag racing competitions. Such a block needed a few adjustments to prevent it from spinning out of control. The big twin is equipped with balancing weights, and is mounted on silent-blocks. For added safety, braking is handled by the CBS system. Transmission is via a universal joint. Sitting low to the ground, it's pleasant to note that despite its substantial weight, the machine is welcoming.
the riding position is not surprisingly defined, typical of a custom bike, but contrasts with the enormous potential of the engine. Arms out, feet forward, lulled by the singular suppleness of the twin, you almost forget to be careful... Turn the throttle firmly and the VTX shows its true face. Horsepower surges forward with a savage thrust, leaving many a machine, even sportbikes, in its wake. With more torque than a Hayabusa, this custom bike will challenge any throttle enthusiast. Measured at 201 km/h but capable, it is said, of 220 km/h, the VTX commands respect. It's a pity that so much power can't be used for long trips; the seat ensures comfort, but the non-existent protection limits ardor, as does the reduced ground clearance. But honestly, what's a dragster-custom made for? Surely not to be a sweet little tourer...

thanks Rating : 5/5 Respond to bill
i would like to find the vibration problem of my vtx 1800c 2002
it shakes when I accelerate instantly when it goes into torkage mode
it's coming from the engine for sure it's obvious
the gas tank starts to vibrate
the seat begins to vibrate and all that happens when he reaches cruising speed when he's not forcing it becomes smooth and enjoyable
quesce qu\'il a quand il force légérement????
i wonder if it wasn't designed that way from the factory
my vtx has a power commander and hypercharged but according to the previous owner was never calibrated on a dino
would that be the problem?
thanks for your help...

I bought my VTX 1800 new in May 2002.
It has 88,000 kms today.
I like it as much as the first day.
Honda maintenance since always.
Never a breakdown
I'm on my 14th rear tire.
We often cover 5000 kms in 3 weeks in August, and the rest on rides between spring and autumn.
This summer, we're off on a little road trip: Normandy, Provence, Italy, Giens, Bassin d'Arcachon, Normandy.

I've had a vtxc 1800 for 6 years... The best bike I've owned in 20 years.
Performance, comfort, looks.
Only flaw is the weight unless you don't mind...
I'm selling mine, I want to get back to something for long trips. Rating : 5/5 Participate in the conversation

in my opinion, of all existing twin-cylinder power cruisers, this is the one that gives the most thrills. Rating : 5/5 Respond to Graffic
don't attack in traffic circles, or too bad for the footrests. Rating : 5/5 Respond to hifi007

Super engine torque, you can go 70km/h in fifth gear with no problem, the pout! pout! and the vibration is delectable. With pipes vances & hance a power commander and a hipercharger, I now have 123 hp in the engine. This is the bike that gets the most power out of the dino with so little modification ( VTX 1800 C ). Its big muffler is a real plug for power. The only hitch is that the rider's pedals rub the asphalt at the drop of a hat. Accustomed to racing machines, I often overestimate the steering angle and the footrest rubs when I'm a nanan child, but luckily it rises high enough for me to be able to turn corners every time. I can't wait for the Suzuki B KING!!!! See www.vtxoa.com for VTX information. Rating : 5/5 Respond to ytirsapof
