This was my first bike aswell but a 95.. I still have it today, very good bike,big bike for sure it did intimidate me at first but I couldn't resist it..
I bought an 02 vt1100 a year ago, had to rebuild the carbs, now it leaves harleys and sports cars in the dust, ive had mine up to 110mph some guys say theirs will do 125mph, i dont care to go that fast, i am thinking of going into debt to get a cb1100, but this one is paid for, so idk..
You its funny you say that I had Vance and hines on my 98 honda vt1100 aero mine wouldn't go over 96mph I had it jetted man what a difference in power it will do 110
You said these Shadows are not geared for high speeds. But The 1997-2007 VT1100C Honda Shadow Spirit (the one your riding) is geared higher than all the other VT1100's (14% higher) The others are geared lower including the VT1100C2 Sabre, VT1100C3, VT1100T.
My 2004 Shadow 1100 goes 115 at least with a windshield. I pulled the baffles from my stock exhaust and it rips much more since. Get yourself a Memphis Slim windshield at least. Your engine sounds horrible. I think your exhaust is messed up. Remove the baffles? My bike hits 100 in seconds.
Sam Braxton are those the original handlebars? I was recently given a shadow spirit vt 1100c but I dont like the current handlebars. I like your setup though if you can let me know thanks!
They are not the originals, but sadly I don't know the spec or names of these bar. They were installed when I bought the bike. I have ridden a stock layout and these are just slightly taller, not too aggressive. Sorry but I hope that helps.
You know when someone really likes riding when there is snow on the ground,no windshield and they are gassing on it in the strait a ways.
