I've owned a honda Vtx 1300 for a few years and never had any issues out of it. I bought it for 3k, and it's been super reliable for me. No issues at all, love my bike ๐

My wife and I bought a big bore cruiser for something for both of us to ride together (she understandably didn't like riding on my sportbike - zero blame there and she turned out not liking riding herself on her shadow 600). We went to a large used dealership (one of those places with 500 used bikes of every type inventory). I rode 4 or 5 of them and bought the one that I thought was most comfortable - which was a Vulcan 1600. I didn't have much excitement about it overall, but fast forward 15y and I still have it. It has cost me nearly nothing over the years and starts every time and is smooth as butter.
It's never been my favorite bike in the garage, but it's hard to argue the ROI I got from that thing a decade and a half ago.

I started on a Suzuki Savage 650, moved up to a Kawasaki Vulcan 750, currently riding a Honda VTX 1300. All three are very reliable; all were purchased used for cheap.

vulcan 1500 and vtx1300 have been 2 of my favorite cruisers to date.

I rode a Yamaha VStar 1100 Classic for 10 years and about 50,xxx miles. Not without issues (starter clutch) but overall I was happy with the bike.

I still have my 1999 intruder 1400, 26000 miles and not one single problem with it in all those years, very well built bike, still runs and rides like new, not a fast bike but off the line it is very quick to 60,

I absolutely agree that the Japanese cruisers are the best value for the buck. Reliable, low maintenance, it makes a great entry level bike. Good job Brandon & Chase on showing some typical examples.๐

I rode a bone stock '07 Yamaha V-Star 650 26K miles thru all 48 states over a 3 1/2 month period in '17. I still own it and it is my daily rider with over 95K miles on the clock. I have a '02 Goldwing and an '91 Kawasaki Voyager XII as well.
There are three types of people when it comes to dropping a bike.
1. Those that have.
2. Those that will
3. Those that lie that they never had.
What is the most interesting thing about dropping a bike is 90% of the time it will be near or at a dead stop.

My first bike was an 800 intruder. Fantastic beginner cruiser with very clean examples topping out around $2500 USD in 2024. The older metric cruisers offer incredible value for those wanting reliability on a budget. 2nd bike was an intruder 1400, 3rd bike was a Harley ultra, 4th bike was a goldwing.

I'm 56yr old rider 240lbs and been in the wind 39 yrs this year I was a harley guy in the beginning until the prices went thru the roof but now I'm currently on a 2014 900 kawasaki classic cruiser, heel toe shifter, floor boards, belt drive and good running bike, plenty of power handles great and affordable and looks and sounds great as I get many compliments on the styling and sound does the same thing the $20k bikes do for a fraction of the price, best $5k I've spent very dependable cruiser and low cost to maintain.

I test rode Harleys for years. Then I rode a Yamaha Royal Star Tour Deluxe. I was hooked. Got my bike in 2014 and still have it. I doubt I'll ever part with it.

Loved this video! I'm going to start looking for an older shadow now. Thanks!!!

Thanks Kase and Brendan, love a nice (cheap) cruiser. Bought a 98 Honda Valkyrie in 2010, great summer ride, needs frequent tinkering

The old Suzuki Intruder with the straight bars was always "the one that got away" for me. Loved the looks of that bike.

My good buddy is just getting into bikes picked up a Rebel 300 and is having a blast learning on it!

I love cruisers ! I own a Yamaha Stryker which is a 1300cc bike, and a Kawasaki Vulcan 1500. Both bikes are amazing and I got the Vulcan for under $3k.
I'll never own another Harley. Biggest waste of money. I am mid 50's, done with sport bikes and like to cruise, and I can go fast if I want to. I used to own a Shadow 750. Awesome bike.
I disagree that Japanese cruisers don't have the same following as Harley's because times are changing. They sold a gazzillion Vulcan 650S's. Those bikes are so popular.

I have 2 Suzuki VL1500 Intruder (C90). One of them was my first ever bike
I earlier had the Yamaha XVS1100 Dragstar/V-star. That's the most fun cruiser I've ever ridden. Dual discs, low weight, and a fun engine. And it's beautiful.
|
I absolutely adore my 1400 intruder 4 speed model. Ive had shadows, kz, scooters, groms and my intruder is my ride or die bike.

I've had a 2005 Suzuki C90 for a couple years now, and I absolutely love it. Can't see myself getting rid of it till retirement, then I'll get a newer Goldwing.
Been riding for 16 years, I've been lucky enough to not drop anything I've been riding yet.

Yamaha VStar 1300 is an excellent good sized cruiser that can be had for very little money. Fuel injection, liquid cooled, belt drive, comfortable, and extremely reliable. A really underrated bike that a lot of people have forgotten about.
