Candy Red VTX1800R, 1 owner bought in 2007. Local in town usage, not abused. Garage kept, bike cover provided with sale. Upgrades: - Hard Krome Straight Pipes, VERY LOUD - Honda wind screen - Chrome engine guard - Chrome light bar - Mustang Seats, front and rear - New honda battery Engine/Drivetrain - Engine is a 1795cc liquid-cooled 52¡ V-twin hammers out immense power--106 bhp at 5000 rpm and 120 lb./ft. of torque at 3500 rpm. - V-twin engine features 4-inch cylinder bores and the largest connecting rods and cylinders Honda has ever made. - Offset dual-pin crankshaft with two primary-shaft-mounted balance weights allows a high-performance engine design while eliminating harsh engine vibration. The result: muscular poweracross a broad rpm range for unequaled acceleration and roll-on performance. - The 41.4 pound forged steel crankshaft uses bolt-on weights, reducing crankcase width nearly 2 inches and reducing crankshaft weight 8.8 pounds compared to a conventional one-piece design. - The engine mounting system uses carefully matched hangers and rubber mounts to eliminate unwanted vibration, while preserving the powerful character of the engine's V-twin design. - Each three-valve cylinder head features two large, 36mm intake valves and a huge, 45mm exhaust valve to produce optimum flow for the air/fuel charge. - Two iridium-tip spark plugs per cylinder for efficient combustion at all engine speeds. - Simple-to-service screw-and-locknut valve-clearance adjusters. - 4.5-liter airbox supplies a large volume of cool, clean air to the engine. - Advanced high-pressure programmed fuel injection (PGM-FI) features 42mm-diameter throttle bodies delivering air to two specially designed Denso(r) 50-psi high-pressure fuel injectors. Fuel is delivered through 12 nozzle holes in each injector, producing an atomized fuel mixture that is highly combustible for maximum efficiency and power. - Electronic control unit (ECU) provides individual digital 3-D fuel injection and ignition maps for each cylinder, creating ideal fuel mixture and spark advance settings for superb rideability. - A unique dry-sump oiling system utilizes a closed crankcase design and places the oil tank inside the gearbox case. The result is a freer-revving engine for improved power, and a lower engine height, allowing optimum rider ergonomics and a low, 27.3-inch seat height. - High-capacity radiator with cooling fan maintains consistent engine temperature for optimum performance and long engine life. - Maintenance-free automatic cam-chain tensioners. - Reliable electric-starter system. - Primary-drive gear uses a cam-type damper to minimize powertrain lash. - Sturdy maintenance-free eight-plate hydraulic clutch with clutch-center damper assures smooth gear shifting. - Five-speed transmission with carefully selected gear ratios for relaxed cruising and exciting roll-on performance. - Shaft final-drive system provides smooth, low-maintenance operation. - Driven-flange design at the final drive gear eliminates final-drive noise and wear and simplifies rear wheel installation.
