Engine/Drivetrain
- VTX engine is a 1312cc liquid-cooled 52° V-twin that delivers strong low-end and mid-range torque, with ample power for passing and relaxed cruising.
- Powerplant design features a single-pin crankshaft to accentuate the VTX engine's character.
- Dual two-axis primary counterbalancers minimize harsh engine vibration without eliminating the powerful pulse feeling transmitted by the VTX's traditional V-twin design.
- The engine mounting system uses carefully matched hangers to eliminate unwanted vibration, while preserving the powerful character of the V-twin engine.
- Each three-valve cylinder head features two 31mm intake valves and a large 40mm exhaust valve to produce optimum flow for the incoming air/fuel charge.
- Simple-to-service screw-and-locknut valve clearance adjusters.
- Single 38mm constant-velocity carburetor offers crisp throttle response at all engine speeds.
- 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 spark plugs 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 27.0-inch 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.
- Maintenance-free automatic cam-chain tensioners.
- Reliable electric-starter system.
- Sturdy clutch utilizes a rubber clutch-center 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 eliminates final-drive noise and wear, and simplifies rear wheel installation.
Chassis/Suspension
- Massive tubular steel frame contains the engine's power and gives the VTX a long, low, classic stance.
- Large 41mm extended front fork provides 5.1 inches of plush yet responsive travel.
- Dual chromed rear shocks with five-position preload adjustment feature an advanced internal valve system for a comfortable ride.
- Front disc brake features a twin-piston caliper with a large-diameter 336mm stainless steel rotor. Combined with the rear single-piston caliper and 296mm stainless steel rotor, the brakes provide excellent stopping power.
Additional Features
- Specially designed tank-mounted chrome housing features a speedometer, odometer/A&B tripmeter, and indicator lights for the turn signals, high beam, neutral indicator, oil pressure and coolant temperature.
- Electric speedometer with easy-to-read classic numerals uses an electronic speed sensor in the transmission, which eliminates the front-wheel-mounted speedometer cable. This contributes to a clean, uncluttered look.
- Extensive chrome finishing of engine parts includes cylinder-head covers, valve inspection covers, airbox cover, left crankcase cover, clutch cover and left-rear engine cover.
- Distinctive chrome-hooded headlight housing features a powerful, 55W/60W halogen bulb with a computer-designed multi-reflector for superb lighting in all conditions.
