Bloody hell, was looking to see what the honda cruisers look like and see that they now make bikes with 1800cc engines now, are there any bigger than that .

Yep.. but most of them *aren't* made for perforance, but rather so you can say "I've got a 1.8ltr bike". The [url=https://www.bosshoss.co.nz/]Boss Hoss can have up to a 8ltr engine I believe.. but also weighs arounf half a ton!
The bike of note for out-right straightline performance is the Suzki Hayabusa.... 194mph from a £9,000 bike (available second hand from £3-4000ish)

But a Busa could never match the beautiful exhaust note of a VTX1800 with straight through pipes. Trust me, it is a sound you would never forget!

Yeah my mates have Goldwings for the touring , they go on all the Europe tours, recently went to Luxembourg and then Poland for the Polish Wings bash.

They are big heavy bikes but once on the move they are suprisingly agile. The Goldwing Trikes are really cool too.

Biggest engine bike I've seen was 4600cc , a V8 engine that was placed in a bike, called Boss Hog or something like that.

There is a Valkyrie F6C, a 1500cc flat 6-cyl. Once again, a lovely sounding bike!

The VTX is only available as an 1800cc V-twin, although for 2003 Honda are introducing a 1300 version
