HONDAVT1300CR Stateline 2013 - 2014

　　First released in 2010 as a cruiser machine part of a custom cruiser lineup in Honda's range, the 2014 Honda VT1300CR Stateline was a motorcycle designed for long-distance touring with a comfortable riding position.

　　The bike was presented at the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show in Japan side by side with a VT1300CS Sabre model. The motorcycle featured an updated engine and brakes borrowed from the VTX1300 machine but built with an unusual frame geometry, new bodywork, and new suspension components.

　　Also, the bodywork was designed by Honda R&D Americas (HRA) in collaboration with a team of engineers from Honda's Asaka R&D Center (HGA) in Japan. The carbureted engine used on the VTX1300 was updated with an electronically fuel-injected engine.

　　The line of cruisers comprised three conventional cruiser machines, such as the Sabre, Interstate, and Stateline, which was the entry-level motorcycle due to its lower price but also joined by a Fury named version that featured a more chopper-style appearance.

　　The 2014 Honda VT1300CR Stateline had a low-slung and streamlined profile topped by a flowing front fender and a low, comfortable seat. In addition, the model packed a range of advanced features, such as a modern LCD instrument panel, a fuel-injected engine, and an optional ABS braking system.

　　As for power, the 2014 Stateline was fitted at the center of the chassis with a 1,312cc liquid-cooled V-twin engine coupled to a five-speed manual transmission and a low-maintenance shaft drive. The bike boasted 74 hp with a peak at 5,000 rpm and 123 Nm (91 lb-ft) of brute torque at 3,000 rpm.
