Hello Fellow VTX Riders,

I need some help. I am looking to purchase a 2002 VTX 1800 C from a seller on E-Bay. The Item Number on E-Bay is 4500789356 and the link is

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... gory=50010 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=4500789356&category=50010)

I'm located in Denver, Colorado and would love if I could get somebody from Northern Florida to take a look at the bike for me. Maybe even test ride it. The Seller is located in St. Augustine. I have the contact info to get in touch with the Owner.

Thanks so very much for you help....

I would offer to help, but I am not a very good mechanic, and dont really know what to look for in a used bike. If you absolutely cannot find anyone, post again and I can go take a look, but not sure what good it will so you. Can send a PM if you want.

I am a motorcycle mechanic, primarily Honda. I own a 02 VTX1800R. After an accident I rebuilt my 1800 from the ground up. Have repaired, modified, and reassemble several VTXs. I am about 45 minutes away.
Could give you pictures and/or description of what I see.

Went and looked at the VTX1800C in Florida. It is in very good condition. Lots of extras. Has some really neat things Scott had done to it. Frenched in tail light, molded tank, chopped front fender, a great paint schem, matched RC component rims( I believe) and other things too numberous to name. Less than 3500 miles. I believe you wiil really enjoy it. :D :D

Hello Bruce,

I wanted to thank you for checking out VTX1800C for me. I appreciate your comments.

This just goes to show you how great the VTX Family is....It's like having a brother or sister in every state out there to help you when you need it.

Remember, when we meet up sometime either at the Colorado 4th of July Ride or If I'm ever in Florida...I owe you a few beers...

Thanks again...
