Upgrading to Class 3 Cruiser

[nightblade]

Hello everyone, this is my first post here although I've been a lurker for some time.

 

I've been riding my Phantom 150 for almost 7 years now and I feel it's time to upgrade. The Honda VTX 1300R kinda caught my eyes when I was randomly surfing the net a few weeks back.

 

Can anyone tell me more about this bike. The handling, maintenance, quirkiness of the bike or their riding experience and also shop recommendation.

 

Thanks for the help

It couldn't be that expensive! Could it be the price tag for the 1800 instead? Might as well throw in 25K for the 1900 Midnight Star.

Ya it is. I asked went I was there too see NDR's ST. Maybe that's the reason it's stuck there for so long. Quite a old model too I heard.

I think an upgrade from phantom 150 to a huge cruiser is an overkill..

 

Why dun get a middleweight one to accustom yourself to weight and handling issues??

 

I think VTX weights 3 times of the phantom? and maybe is 1.5 times as long?
