The VTX1300S ups the ante when it comes to classic retro cool. Add an eye-catching new Titanium colour, and you'll quickly realize this brilliant 1312cc V-twin is as mesmerizing to look at as it is exhilarating to ride.

Honda's VTX1300 is all about style and panache, featuring deeply valanced front and rear fenders, a chrome-hooded headlight, and a broad fuel tank with tank-mounted instruments.

Its semi swept handlebar and floorboards complete with heel and toe shifter create a classic retro style that sets the VTX apart from the competition.

Rider comfort is enhanced by comfortable ergonomics as well as a firmly padded saddle featuring a low 695mm seat height.

Additional features include staggered dual exhaust pipes that produce a pleasing, throaty exhaust note, as well as traditional spoke wheels and large 140/80-17 front tyres for a commanding profile. RRP $15,990.
