Overview[edit | edit source]
Honda VT 600CD Shadow VLX Deluxe
Few entry-level customs can boast as many
big-bike features as Honda's VLX. Just like its larger stablemates, VLX is
powered by a 52-degree V-twin engine. And like the big boys, VLX boasts
three-valve cylinder heads for maximum power and twin spark plugs in each
combustion chamber for maximum efficiency.
VLX also has the lowest seat height of any of
our cruisers for both a comfortable riding position and easy flat-footed
stops. Then there's VLX's unique 'hardtail' rear suspension that emulates the
'rigid' look of custom choppers. But thanks to its hidden Monoshock design and
seven position preload adjustment, there's 90mm of plush suspension travel.
