HONDAVTX1800C 2003 - 2004

　　In 2004, the Japanese motorcycle maker released the Honda VTX1800C. The cruiser-style motorcycle came in a similar package as its predecessor without any upgrades, except with minor changes in the color department.

　　Until 2004, the VTX1800 was the first production motorcycle that featured the world's largest V-twin engine, superseded by the 2004 Kawasaki Vulcan 2000, with its massive 2000cc engine.

　　The Honda VTX1800C had a muscular appearance with a significant rake and rail, long and low to the ground. The powerful engine delivered precise acceleration, and the five-speed transmission offered smooth power transfer to the rear wheel.

　　When the VTX1800C was launched in 2001, it was known as the VTX1800 or the VTX. Compared to the VTX1800R and VTX1800S retro machines, the bike was differentiated by the two-into-one exhaust system and its speedometer mounted within the handlebar risers.

　　Fitted on the double-cradle steel frame, a 45 mm inverted telescopic fork handled the front suspension, while dual shock absorbers with five-position spring preload adjustability drove the rear suspension.

　　Also, the cast aluminum wheels were fitted with two 296 mm discs and three-piston calipers acting as the front stopping power, while the rear had a single 316 mm disc with a three-piston caliper for strong braking power.

　　In the performance department, the 2004 Honda VTX1800C delivered 107 hp with a peak at 5,000 rpm and 163 Nm (120 lb-ft) of torque at 3,000 rpm from the 1,795cc liquid-cooled V-twin engine with an electronically controlled fuel injection system.
