2009 Honda VTX 1300 T
Description
You want a bike for the city, but you also love to take off on a moment's notice and head for a distant point on the map. Can one bike do both? Check out the Honda VTX1300T Tourer, which blends classic cruiser cool with the practical features needed for long-distance adventure. It comes equipped with a windshield, spacious saddlebags, and a sturdy passenger backrest for all-day comfort. A big 1,312 cc liquid-cooled V-twin provides all the power you'll need, while dual counterbalancers help to ensure that harsh engine vibration will never spoil your ride.
Engine/Drivetrain
VTX1300T engine is a 1,312 cc liquid-cooled 52-degree V-twin that delivers strong low-end and midrange torque, with ample power for passing and relaxed cruising.
Powerplant design features a single-pin crankshaft to accentuate the VTX1300T engine's character.
Dual two-axis primary counterbalancers help to minimize harsh engine vibration without eliminating the powerful pulses transmitted by the VTX1300T's traditional V-twin design.
Each three-valve cylinder head features two 31 mm intake valves and a large 40 mm exhaust valve to produce optimum flow for the incoming air/fuel charge.
Simple-to-service screw-and-locknut valve-clearance adjusters.
Single 38 mm constant-velocity carburetor offers crisp throttle response.
Electronic control unit (ECU) provides 3-D ignition maps for each cylinder, creating ideal spark advance settings for superb rideability.
Coolant-heated carburetor improves rideability and ensures smooth operation in cold conditions.
Two sparkplugs per cylinder for efficient combustion at all engine speeds.
A unique dry-sump oil system utilizes a closed-crankcase design and places the oil tank inside the gearbox case. The result is a freer-revving engine for improved power and a lower engine height, allowing optimum rider ergonomics and a low 695 mm (27.4 inches) seat height.
Custom chromed two-into-two exhaust system produces a deep exhaust note.
Radiator with cooling fan maintains consistent engine temperature for optimum performance and long engine life.
Automatic cam-chain tensioners.
Reliable electric-starter system.
Sturdy clutch utilizes a rubber clutch-centre damper to ensure smooth and quiet shifting.
Five-speed transmission with carefully selected gear ratios for exciting roll-on performance.
Shaft final-drive system provides smooth, low-maintenance operation.
Driven-flange design at the final-drive gear minimizes final-drive noise and wear, and simplifies rear wheel installation.
