KEY FEATURES: Performance-cruising, value, style and a look all of its own: There's no doubt that the newest member of our VTX family, the American made 1300S, is sure to be a huge hit. The engine's a proven performer. The ride is pure VTX cool and comfort. And when it comes to style-well, you can see that for yourself. The classic lines of custom styling flowing around a big V-twin engine. What more could you possibly ask for in a bike designed for a pleasant day's cruising? The VTX1300S offers quality, style and ample power for cruising, touring in the country, or setting out with no destination in mind. Its engine's single-pin crankshaft provides a strong feel of big V-twin performance, while a twist of its throttle unleashes a blast of low-to-midrange performance. Detailing is impeccable, with the strong influence of early American bikes, evident in the design of its deep fenders, wide, saddle-type seat, and large, curvaceous fuel tank topped by speedometer and indicators all built into a sparkling chrome instrument display. The chromed dual exhaust pipes produce a pleasing, throaty exhaust note, and every detail glitters in polished paint, metal and chrome. Settling into the wide, low and comfortable riding position, the VTX provides a comfortable upright view of the world that's perfect for more relaxed riding speeds and lazy days of back road cruising. Whatever way you like to travel, the VTX lets you sit back and enjoy the ride.
