Overview

Introducing the 2013 Honda VT750S, a motorcycle that perfectly embodies the spirit of all-round versatility. Positioned within the competitive cruiser segment, the VT750S combines classic styling with modern engineering, making it an ideal choice for both new riders and seasoned enthusiasts alike. Its sleek lines and muscular profile exude confidence, while its approachable seat height of 750mm ensures comfort for riders of varying heights. Sold exclusively in Australia, this bike is ready to tackle everything from leisurely weekend rides to daily commutes, seamlessly blending style and functionality. At the heart of the VT750S lies a powerful 745cc V2, four-stroke engine that delivers a robust 43.18 horsepower at 5,500 RPM and a torque figure of 62 Nm at a low 3,250 RPM. This powertrain, complemented by a smooth-shifting 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive, offers a satisfying riding experience characterized by responsive acceleration and solid mid-range power. The liquid-cooled engine operates efficiently thanks to Honda's PGM-FI fuel injection system, which ensures optimal performance in various conditions. Whether you're navigating city streets or cruising along a scenic highway, the VT750S offers a balanced ride with steady handling, thanks to its steel frame and well-tuned suspension. The Honda VT750S is not just about performance; it boasts an array of features that enhance both comfort and safety. The front suspension employs a 41mm telescopic fork, providing 118mm of travel, while the rear suspension features dual conventional dampers with 5-step adjustable spring preload, allowing riders to fine-tune their ride quality. Stopping power is delivered through a single hydraulic disc brake with dual-piston calipers up front, ensuring confident braking performance. With a fuel capacity of 10.7 liters, this motorcycle is equipped for longer journeys, reducing the frequency of fuel stops. Riders can choose from striking color options, including classic black or a spirited blue and white combination, further personalizing their ride. **
