Gorgeous, sexy, and wonderful as the VTX 1800 is, I feel it would be irresponsible for me to take it on the road.

hondas are awesome, we took a trip from Louisiana to Mexico with a group of about 25 Hondas and like 15 Harleys, not one Honda had to stop other than for fuel, all but 3 Harleys had to stop due to engine trouble.
The tanks all sit unaesthetically horizontal, the bobbed fender variety doesn't bob right, the factory colors are ALWAYS crap(I saw one in baby blue in a showroom!--who the hell would be caught dead riding a baby blue Harley?)!
Of all these, the Honda aftermarket reigns supreme in beautifying your ride.
