Howdy, Honda folk! As of this afternoon, I'm a proud new owner of a '05 VTX1800S (New old stock) Picked her up and put the first 50 miles on, and I must say it is a great machine!
Very smooth ride and driveline, and the made in USA quality really shines on this baby! Two tone black and green paint is like glass, and the chrome is lusterous!

Thanks! Only a newbie on the Honda side. I've been kickin' it with y'all for a few years, back when I had the V-Max and M-50...
