2014 Honda VT1300CS Sabre[edit | edit source]

Skinnier and more aggressively styled than the Stateline, the 2014 Sabre brings a narrower front wheel for even more character, while retaining the menacing looks and glorious road stance. The Sabre also keeps the chrome accents, the massive bullet-styled headlight and turn signal casings, the dual stacked exhausts and the streamlined tank shape blending into the seat and following the arched backbone frame to perfection.

Sharp-looking and with an equally exhilarating riding stance, the 2013 Sabre is definitely a cruiser you want to be seen on.
