2002 Honda® VTX1800R2, CLEAN BIG BORE CRUISER AT RG MOTORSPORTS!

Compared to the Classic VTX1800C model, the R machine was differentiated by its profoundly valanced front and rear fenders and the slash-cut two-into-two chromed exhaust system that enhanced its retro appearance.

In other departments, the bike carried the exact specifications as its siblings, with the same powerful V-twin engine and almost identical appearance with its two-piece dual seat and pulled-back handlebar.

Like its classic brother, it packed a set of cast aluminum wheels fitted with three-piston calipers and two 296 mm discs acting as the front-stopping power. In contrast, the rear wheel was stopped by a single 316 mm disc engaged by a three-piston caliper for solid braking performance.

The double-cradle steel frame packed on the front a 45 mm inverted fork handling the front suspension, while on the rear, the bike used a five-position spring preload-adjustable dual shock absorbers.

Also, in the power department, the 2003 Honda VTX1800R packed the same 1,795cc liquid-cooled V-twin engine as its siblings, delivering an output power of 107 hp at 5,000 rpm and 163 Nm (120 lb-ft) of torque at 3,000 rpm.

Overall, the VTX1800R was a robust and reliable cruiser machine with impressive performance and comfort, making it a popular choice among riders who enjoyed long-distance cruising and touring.
