2003 Honda Shadow 600 VLX Deluxe, RNOFew entry-level customs can boast as many big-bike features as Hondas 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 theres VLXs unique hardtail rear suspension that emulates the rigid look of custom choppers. But thanks to its hidden Monoshock design and seven position preload adjustment, theres 90mm of plush suspension travel.
