The GTX-F LTD X-Wedge from the BBC is a touring cruiser with a couple of features that set it apart from all other machines in its class, such as the passenger's saddle, which has been positioned in front of the rear wheel, which in turn increases its maneuverability and the comfort level for both the rider and the passenger. Other features such as the hard, spacious saddlebags, the fork-mounted fairing, the pillion backrest, the windscreen and the auxiliary fuel tank under the seat ensure this machine is more than capable of going the extra mile.

At its heart lies an 1917cc, BBC-S&S 117 SMOOTH EFI X-Wedge engine is paired to a six-speed manual transmission, and produces 97 horsepower and 153 Nm of torque at the crankshaft. What sets this engine apart from all other V-twins on the market is its S&S Closed-Loop Electronic Fuel Injection which makes it conform with EPA standards, without affecting the power output.
