HONDAVTX1300T Tourer 2008 - 2009

　　In 2003, Honda introduced the VTX1300 series, with the VTX1300S being the first model powered by a similar layout to the engine used on the larger VTX1800 series. The powerplant was inserted in a cruiser bodywork rolling on wire-spoke wheels.

　　Instead of the linked braking system used on the VTX1800 series, the VX1300 line of smaller cruiser motorcycles packed a standard braking system. Also, unlike its larger siblings fed by a fuel-injected engine, the VTX1300 was fueled by a constant velocity carburetor.

　　In 2009, the Japanese maker launched the VTX1300T Tourer, a touring-oriented machine packed from factory saddlebags, a windscreen for better protection, and a passenger backrest for enhanced comfort.

　　The bike packed the same suspension as its siblings, with a 41 mm telescopic fork on the front, while the rear end was handled by a five-position spring preload-adjustable shock absorbers.

　　In the braking department, the VTX1300T Tourer was stopped by the same system as the previous models, with a dual-piston caliper and a 336 mm disc handling the front end, while the rear wheel was stopped by a single-piston caliper and a 296 mm disc.

　　The 2009 Honda VTX1300T Tourer was powered by a 1,312cc four-stroke liquid-cooled V-twin engine delivering an output power of 74 hp at 5,000 rpm and 123 Nm (91 lb-ft) of torque at 3,000 rpm.

　　The 2009 machine was in its last year of production and featured only color changes. In other departments, the bike was identical to previous models.
