Segment: Custom/Cruiser
Production years: 2006, 2007
In 2007, the motorcycle maker released the VTX1800N, a cruiser machine part of the VTX series in Honda's range that came unchanged from the previous models but with new colors, such as Metallic Black with Red Custom Art, Dark Red with Red Custom Art, and Metallic Black.
The VTX1800N featured a neo-retro style with cast aluminum wheels, custom hot-rod retro look front and rear steel fenders, wedge-shaped mirrors for a streamlined appearance, a large fuel tank for extended range, and bullet-style turn signals with chrome visors and clear lenses. The bike was available in three different custom building options.
The 2007 Honda VTX1800N followed the steps of its siblings and packed the same 1,795cc liquid-cooled V-twin engine with 107 hp on board at 5,000 rpm and low-end 163 Nm (120 lb-ft) of torque at 3,000 rpm.
The bike's stopping system was identical to the one used on previous models, comprising three-piston calipers and two 296 mm discs mounted on the front wheel, while the rear wheel was stopped by a dual-piston caliper and a larger 316 mm rotor.
The massive double-cradle steel frame was fitted with a 45 mm inverted fork acting as front suspension. Two chromed shock absorbers with five-way spring preload adjustability took care of the rear suspension.
The motorcycle was ready to be customized by the riders with Honda Genuine Accessories, such as a passenger backrest, a custom windscreen, leather saddlebags, and many chromed accents.
