About Honda VTX
The Honda VTX has long been known as one of the very best cruising bikes out there. Currently, two bikes dominate the Honda VTX field. They are:
Honda VTX 1300 C:
The Honda VTX 1300 is a perfect example of what happens when you build a bike from the inside out. A massive 1300cc engine, sweeping curves and tip-to-tail chrome add up to a ride that you’ll have to experience for yourself.
Honda VTX 1300 R:
The Honda VTX 1300 R has everything you would expect in a retro motorcycle. Cast wheels. Dual exhaust with custom-looking short pipes. And crisp tank-mounted instruments and gauges

Honda VTX 1800
Honda came late to the super-sized, V-twin pool party so it had to make a big splash. It did.

Bizzzzt...tink. The electric fuel pump of the Honda VTX 1800 pressurizes a pair of 12-orifice injectors and the countdown begins. Hold your finger over the starter button and think of what you're about to do. Chunk...whir, whir, whir. The motor valiantly struggles against a pair of 101mm pistons meandering through 112mm of stroke. (God bless Honda for letting you bring the beast to life without retracting the sidestand, grabbing the clutch or recalling specific properties of liquid hydrogen to some square head with a polyester tie.) And then, like there was nothing to it, like watching a rocket scrabble skyward from across the bay--blub, blub, blub. There you find the largest production V-twin motorcycle ever made, idling away in your driveway.
Just like that, two massive cylinders of the Honda VTX light off in happy syncopation, a 41-pound flywheel helping to steady the beat and a chip-head computer keeping time. No duet on the choke or a practiced hand on the throttle. Seamless, contained...and almost a bit anticlimactic. So much for the 2002 Honda VTX being a hyperpowerful, ill-mannered brute.
Motorcycle Cruiser The Big Test

Three our of four chose the Honda VTX1800N, hands down, as the ultimate Big Twin cruiser, and all three were the core testers who put the majority of mileage on these models.
The Honda VTX1800N was obviously the winner of this comparison, we ran out of things to talk about at dinner. It's sweetly styled, and the accessory options are absolutely beautiful. The Honda VTX power is tremendous. The Honda VTX 1800C has been at the top of my list from the start, and now this new Neo-retro version is right there with it. Can't lose here, folks.
