Any Honda cb1300x4 riders out there? This model as far as I know was only exported from Japan to Germany I would be interested to know how any owners rate the bike and would also be interested in talking with anyone who owns one of these bikes. My model is a 1998 and am really enjoying it.
Cheers

how heavy are they and do they take much riding due to the weight?

Never seen one around Perth. Rare as the proverbial hens teeth I reckon.

This will have all the info on this model I had a honda 750v4 before and found it a little high . the x4 is a lot lower and so real easy to ride .extra weight no problem. this bike is a bute to ride even in slow traffic (2 up). overtaking is a breeze - no need to change down with so much torque 121 nm (89.2 ft.lbs)@5000 rpm

nice cruiser. :niceone: pics on my profile

White Trash rode one to Flyin's funeral. Silver, with a fly screen. Probably why he's moving to Auckland...

Have owned one of these bikes now for about a year, was not intending to buy a honda but after the first ride i was sold. Very comfortable and really fell for the look of the bike thou i have changed a few things since purchase.

Would I be right thinking the current CB1300 engine is a version of that engine?

It looks like it has the identical engine to the Honda Big One.

Rode both CB1300 and X4 in Thailand this year

no comparison X4 horrible except on open roads where it was OK
CB1300 good bike even in traffic

These bikes were not new and not necessarily maintained well
But I wouldn't ride a X4 again (rode 2 of them) but it was hard choice between my new Bandit and the Cb1300
price was the big decider
