2012 HONDA Vt1300 Interstate, Long Distance Operator. Who hasn t dreamed of owning an awesome custom motorcycle? And who hasn t dreamed of taking off for a weekend or a week and going on a nice long ride where the cell phone doesn t ring and there s no email to answer? That s what the Honda Interstate is all about. With its 1312cc V-twin engine the Interstate is the ultimate expression of progressive retro cruiser styling, with one big difference: It s built to go the (long) distance, with touring features like floorboards, roomy leather-clad saddlebags, and a custom windscreen. Built for the long haul. With its potent 1312cc, 52 V-twin, the Interstate delivers strong low- and mid-range torque, ample passing power, and an exhaust note that s like a siren song for the open road. The lap of luxury. Long-distance riders know that the Interstate s floorboards, saddlebags, and classic fork-mounted windscreen are all you need to turn this custom into a great open-road machine ready to take off at a minute s notice.
