Honda's VTX 1800 cruiser was pictured on the cover of Cycle News 20
years ago. The crankshaft alone weighed 41.4 pounds... In contrast, we
also tested the 1000cc smaller Suzuki Intruder Volusia VL800 cruiser
in the same issue... Our cruiser-special issue also featured a test of the
Yamaha Road Star Midnight Star... Ricky Carmichael won his eighth-
straight Supercross, the latest coming at the Houston Supercross at the
Astrodome. Husqvarna-mounted Travis Preston won the 125cc main
event. It was the brand's first Supercross win of any kind.
