Don’t say we didn’t warn you—one look and you won’t be able to tear your eyes off the gorgeous Interstate custom. Like its equally stunning Stateline stable mate, this 1312cc V-twin 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.
So we won’t mind if we catch you staring. In fact, we fully expect it.
Cross-town or Cross-country, this Motorcycles made to cruise.
The Interstate is a looker, a stunner—first and foremost. Better still, since this is a Honda, you know the beauty runs much more than skin deep, showcasing engineering and innovative features like that beefy 1312cc 52º V-twin with Programmed Fuel Injection and smooth, maintenance-free shaft drive. A plush, deep-dish saddle, full-size floorboards and a custom touring windscreen make all-day cruising a breeze, while roomy saddlebags let you pack enough for … well, that’s completely up to you.
Sonic Vroom.
With its potent 1312cc, 52º V-twin, the Interstate delivers strong low- and mid-range torque, ample passing power, and a pulsing exhaust note that is downright hypnotic.
Long-Range Luxury.
No matter where, or how long, your ride takes you, the Interstate will get you there in style and comfort, thanks to spacious saddlebags, full-size floorboards and a large, custom windscreen.
Brake Time.
A 336mm front and a 296mm rear disc brake ensures strong stopping power and control.
