Default Would you buy it...Honda VT1300CX

I've got a mint 2002 with all the paperwork (and I'm talking every bill ever) only
11k miles, full fairing and cowl. She's the DB's... But

I've seen this stupid, new, Honda and it might be a cheap Harley but it's awesome. Head says NO. Heart says go on cos you've got the cowboy boots, the leather jeans and the Marlon Brando Wild Ones jacket.

What would you do?

Tbh I'd think about it a bit longer. The moment I thought buying it was the wrong decision I wouldn't think about it again. For me its ****e. Only my opinion of course, to me it wouldn't give me one thing I ride a bike for. Well you asked....good luck with your hat and boots though or are you joshing?

Nope, it's a bit gay, alright a lot gay

This what we're talking about, yup it is, 12.8 ltr tank, s'pose it's for bar hopping as the yanks call it, i mean where are you going to put your luggage?
But it's your money, your choice.

Get a proper HD then, although carp and slow they don't change so will be carp and slow but worth a similar amount in a few years time when you see the light.

If you want the Marlon Brando look you want a Triumph T5 from the late 50's you can get a ratty one for about £5K
