Honda VTX description

This bike is in excellent mechanical condition, i needed a new car and i was insulted by a dealer with a trade in value of $1800, no way, i couldn't do it! mechanically i babied the hell out of this thing, i have at times run it hard, but i took care of it, and i won't be insulted with that kind of a trade in value.  I hope someone gives this thing a good home and i can be happy about giving it to them.

You could remove the aftermarket parts from this thing, get your $1800 and still have a ride able bike, if you had all the stock parts.

SO:

2002 VTX 1800 Honda

31,000 Miles

Currently in Missoula, MT, you either pick up or arrange to have it shipped to you.  I would suggest checking out uship.com it’s an ebay like marketplace where you say what you need shipped and shippers bid on the shipment, If you have a little patience you can usually get an awesome deal.

Excellent mechanical condition as you would expect from a Honda.  The only problem it has ever given me was the Stator and a fuel regulator. (both were fixed when the issues came up).  It’s a rock solid beast of a bike that I expected to never have to sell, I bought it brand new – broke it in properly, and no one other than maybe a mechanic who was working on it has ever ridden it.

Custom Corbin Aftermarket touring (two backrest) seat, recently (last season) refurbished to â€?brand new’ condition.  - This in itself is worth $1000 (check other ebay listings for just the seat)

3 inch handlebar risers (to let you sit back in your custom seat).

Roadhouse custom exhaust.

Kuyrakian Hypercharger

Power commander with an actual custom dyno fuel mapping, not an uploaded map, but one specifically made for this bike, with these mods, by a professional.  101 Ft/lbs torque AT THE REAR WHEEL – I can’t remember what the HP was, but HP isn’t the real measure of an engine anyway.

Aftermarket Tachometer (X doesn’t come with one stock – don’t ask me why)

Full windshield

Custom handlebar grips with a built in �throttle rocker’.

Comes with a bike cover.

Saddle bag mounting brackets (See condition as to why no saddle bags).

Rubber on the tires is good, I don’t know percentages but they both have to be ~ 50% of their useful life remaining.

Other than the paint, I babied this thing, changed the oil at or before every 3000 miles, and always when the bike was hot to keep the gunk out of it…(if you don’t know always change your oil when the engine is hot).

I’ve changed ALL the fluids in it twice even though they say you don’t need to (breaks, clutch, gear oil, coolant etc.)

Hit the jump to see the video and for more info on this years trek. The 2009 Postie Bike Challenge will take place from October 3rd to the 13th and will go from Brisbane to Melbourne, the destination changes every year.  The route taken will be about 2,000 miles (the direct route is about 1,000 miles).  If your interested, get your entry form and deposit in ASAP, last years event was sold out.
