Hi, I'm an old man, and 32 years ago I had an intruder 800cc, now 32 years later I bought an Honda Shadow 750, I'm in love again... And ty, great video, you're great too
From Costa Rica: pura vida hermano!
Sorry for my bad english
I love how a 750 cc, almost 2.5m and 260kg bike is a small lightweight entry bike according to american standards
i got one and it feels pretty heavy to me.. yet again i’m only 5’6 and have never rode a bike but got it since i’d like to learn and ride
@@27BILLY99 yeah that's my point, everywhere else in the world it's considered a pretty large bike. Only Americans would characterized it an entry level motorcycle.
I live in Germany, and I have learnt a lot from US RUclips Channels. They make fun of our kiddy bikes and we of their Highway speed!
@@khaiber_kakar lol
@@manosmilonakis6056 here in the US, roads are huge, long, and drawn out. My commute is down a long highway 30 miles each way.
Have a 2004 with 60K and other than oil change and tires I've spent nothing on the bike, so dependable!
gtags1 same here I only have 6,000 miles nothing but tires and oil service is it
Do you do all the upkeeping maintenance yourself
vkhiev I do
Do you think a 750 would bd good for a beginner? Im 230 lbs and id im not trying to go fast, i just want something that i can possibly take on the highway and not worry about it
Logan Enlow yes it should be fine, they ride nice very little shake. I’m 200 lb and I’m good on it, rides nice even with my wife on the back, and I did a lot of highway miles going to work on it
I've owned lots of cruisers, like yourself. Ridden plenty more. Indians, Harley's, Honda's, Suzuki's, Kawasakis.
The 750 shadow is the absolute epitome of a cruiser I think. Something about it, it's just right.
Purchased an 07 honda shadow spirit 750 with 18k for 2400 dollars with new tires and exhaust. Cant wait to get it out of the parking lot and on the road. I hope it's my last cruiser.
@@FuelHauler48 Hows the shadow treating you ? Do you like it ? I'm looking into getting one that's why I'm asking.
@@ApexAZnn My shadow is treating me well. Oil and filter change, gear oil, new turn signal bulb and she is running great. I've put 700 miles on it and after putting the suspension to 1 below max it handles great for me 6'1 215
@Balkan Boy the shadow can handle like the dirtbike of cruisers. Easiest handling in the city but crusier look.
@Balkan Boy plenty of torque and easy for city driving. 4th gear at 50 mph is the sweet spot on this bike but with me 6foot1 210 it tops out at 102. Wet weight is 540ish but has plenty of lean angle before scraping peg and the models with the smaller front tire have easier slow speed maneuverability. My bike has the 21 but can drag a little rear brake and help at low speeds.
I just picked up a 2004 Honda Shadow 750 this week for $650! Just a little over 3,000 miles on the bike and everything on this bike is factory. Previous owner left it sitting for 10 years. This week I took the bike on a four-hour ride and it ran like a champ!!! Well worth the money.
I have a hard tail 06 750 spirit, it sounds awesome straight piped. Even Harley guys compliment it. It was my first bike, I'm a smaller guy at 5'4 145lbs, so I don't think I'll ever need a bigger bike.
Once upon a time, 750 was big. 500 was enough.
Yea and an 1100 was considered a heavyweight.
The national speed limit was also 55 mph lol. I agree that people underestimate smaller displacement bikes, But lets be honest a 500cc v-twin will not be able to reach the 80mph speed limits we have now days. However 750cc and up is more than enough for normal size people.
In most the world 750 is still big. But most the world does not have the long roads with 75mph limits like we do. Or fat people like we do.
@@nbookie 😂😂😂 fatties were very rare in the 1970's.
The kwakka 9 was a rocket ship. Peace from Australia 🐨🌴👍
@Nightingale The funniest part about people who are dropping like 30grand on their 30grand motorcycles like that is that the v-rod i paid 5000 for would smoke them lol, or some guy on his stock ninja 650. Motorcycles were never about speed in the first place, imo (not cruisers, that is). At least not for me. I like bikes I feel good on, and after all the bikes I've ridden, a Shadow 750 is still my favorite. It's light and easy, will last forever, very modifiable, can eat highway miles and basically uses no gas at all and you can get a brand new one for less than 8000 bucks lol.
The Shadow my third bike and my first new bike I bought. I have traveled between Victoria, BC to Edmonton, Alberta (X3), and all over Washington State, USA numerous times. It does have plenty of power and handles HIGHWAYs and backroads, takes the counters with ease.
Rad. Vancouver Island here!
Buying my first 750 2006 Shadow Aero. I'm much more a cafe racer or rebel guy, but I LOVE the Aero. Pick it up this week!
Woot!
I'm the one that bought this bike got to ride it the other day and I'm happy with it nice bike. would I buy a nother one from SRK if they had one I was interested YES I would. everything went gust Like they said it would. thank you!
I just got a 2007 shadow 750 today and and I love it. Has all the power I need.
I inherited a 2003 Shadow 750, my first bike and I'm probably the 4th owner. It's got some problems due to neglect/abuse but I love it.
I have an 07 dc I'm 6'2" little cramped for me but I'm going to add forward controls other than that it's great
I have an ‘03 and it’s a great bike
I’m 6’4” forward controls and highway pegs make it awesome, drag pipes help even more, I love my 06 in black
I just stepped up from a ‘06 Rebel 250 to a ‘00 Shadow 750 ACE & I love it!
We lost our home and everything in it in that storm. The God we serve came through in epic fashion. Today we have 3 homes. Your worst day can easily be the start of your best day. God Is Good. All the time.
I've owned 10 bikes in the last 17 years. My VT750 Aero was a great bike. Sure it's not blazing fast, not the most torque. But it is nigh bullet proof, it's fun, unassumimg and surprisingly good through twisty stuff (did scrape a lot lol) they are a much under rated bike.
I know this is old video, but was very helpful in confirming my decision on this bike. Grew up on bikes, road one everywhere, day or night, nice or raining weather. Had a bad accident that pit me in crutches for almost 2 years. 20 + years later went to get back on. Did not want to be "wanting" more, but do not want a tank either. The shadow seemed to fit my wants, (no more sport bikes too) never really been a cruiser guy so was unsure if a 750 cruiser. 750 sport bikes had good power to size but no experience with cruisers in this size. And always been a Honda fan, though have owned all four Japanese makes. Hey, I'm half Japanese, what can I say. But am all American beef. Though I have given the Harley sport 750 a look, and suzuki boulevard c50, but shadow I think wins out. Thank you much. I did buy a couple dirt bikes when I healed, so I have been on bikes since, did have a gs500 but was too small. But now its 20+ years later still want more then a 500 but not to much either.
Just picked up a 2008 in 2024 only has 15k miles on in new exhaust mini apes solid bags and it’s my first bike and I’m having a damn blast man if anyone sees this and you’re thinking about getting a bike GET ONE
So just to be clear everybody is fine correct?
I totally agree. I just sold my Honda Shadow Ace 750 and upgraded to a VTX 1800 C. I rode the shadow for 4 years and loved it. I must admit though after a while it does start to feel underpowered. The best mod I did to my shadow is switch down to a 38 tooth sprocket and did the four degree mod. The problem with the shadow is that after about 5500 RPMs the Power Band drops Like a Stone. I used to have trouble keeping up with my buddies who mostly ride 1500s. After I got my VTX my body's only see my tail lights haha
I did jets, k and n, power commander, and 38 sprocket on my 98 shadow. Dynoed it from 65hp to 80hp. Miss my mid sized baby.
@@JimmyMelgoza ...I call bull shit.
@@dalehumphrey2477 Hater
I agree about being under powered but luckily I don't ride that much to care. Not that I wouldn't jump on getting a shadow with more power.
Still a great running bike.
I have a 2006. Great all around bike. My daughter loves our rides. Runs like a champ.
Once upon a time a 750cc was a big bike... I ride a 1978 Honda CB750K and would take this anywhere.
I got a steal on one. Some dude on Craig's list having a baby sold me his 2007 Honda shadow spirit... Badass black color, long shot Cobra pipes, tons of chrome, low miles. Never had a problem and can cruise at 80 and still have power with someone on the back no problem. I don't know why anyone would think this is a bad bike for anyone.
Man you can't say it was a steal and not say the price!
Sad that he'll regret selling because of kids. I'm a daily rider and I have my kids. His loss your gain
What is low miles ?
Our Viking saddle bags
I want a set. Same bike

@Evan Kabir You are welcome :)
Just got a 2000 shadow spirit 1100 for $1800. Excellent shape. And it’s my first bike! Absolutely love it
I have a 01 shadow spirit and love it
I used to have a 98 750 ACE. Absolutely loved the bike. And even though they have plenty of power for their intended purpose, the older chain drive twin carb models have plenty of room for more power. With modding the intake, a free flowing exhaust, rejetting the carbs, and a dyna 3000 ignition, I had boosted power to where I the bike would be pulling hard all the way to where I was bouncing off the new rev limit (7k) at 127 mph. I wish I had kept her, and spent some coin on new cams and higher compression pistons. Awesome bikes! I love them.
Same here.
I own a 2008 Honda Shadow Aero 750, with 70,000 Km on the clock (43,500 miles) and it has been a great joy to own. Oil and filter changes, final drive oil changes, 4 sets of tires, and one headlight bulb: that is the extent of repairs and maintenance on this bike at this point.
It happens to be for sale, because I switched to a Honda CTX700 with fairing. Now I'm curious how that CTX will fare in the next couple of years. I don't think it will beat the Shadow.
If you own one, look after it. These bikes are plentiful, but most are treated poorly. Could be a classic in another 20 years.
just got the same bike ! 3k miles and garage kept. never owned or rode a bike before so this is all new for me, got lots and lots to learn
My first bike was a 2006 Aero. Looked just like this but with Vance and Hines Short Shots. Had it for 7 years and did nothing but tires and oil changes. Fantastic ride
I have a 2007 aero and it's awesome and I love it and everytime I pull up people think it's a Harley great bike
The irony is that "little" 750 Shadow might have comparable power to weight to a lot of the twin cam Harleys given how much lighter it is. Also a great sounding motor, those 750 Shadows are great bikes, plenty of power but manageable enough for a new rider and absolutely rock solid reliable and cheap to maintain.
For real. The 88ci. Harley engines can't even keep with my v star 650. And the 96 just barely outruns me.
Dj Gilbert i think you need to understand that both riders need to be aware that it's a race.
Bruce. They are my riding buddies. We all know it's a race. Get your ego right stop complaining. We all ride we all shot on each others bikes
I ride a zx9r , had my license for 8 months , more scared of the Honda lmao
@@bruceclark5627 Nope u need to understand Harleys suck compared to honda
Interesting..... I own a VFR1200f (bombed) and once went on holiday to Thailand and hired various big bikes from Patong big bike hire...... Guess what? My favourite was the Vee twin Honda 750. Not my usual cup of tea but I loved it? Not sure why but it was nice.
Just got a 2009 shadow 750 spirit. The guy that owned it before me had the tank stretched, put on cobra pipes, k&n filter, and jetted the carbs. Oh and a brand new beautiful black paint job and lowered the bike, 7k miles $2,400.
I live in Houston, Texas and Harvey did quite a lot of damage, mostly flooding. And I don't think a motorcycle would have helped us out, especially when most of the roads got flooded. I do enjoy watching your vids and just be careful.
Hello family ! I am 53, a 20 year re-entry rider after owning over half a dozen street bikes all inspired by MAD MAX, and Honda Interceptors. I was in my 20's then, and now in my 50's I have arthritis in my left knee. It's bone on bone and I was dreaming of owning a Vulcan 900, but it was too big for me at a stop light. The Honda Shadow Spirit 750 is low. I am 6' tall and it feels SO comfortable. I just bought one YESTERDAY ! Yes ! Yesterday for the first time in over 20 years. I got as far as my driveway and chickened out. I need a riding partner for my re-maiden voyage. I feel so much conflict, yet it felt SO natural. I'm just afraid of stop lights, although the previous owners had the entire church pray for me.
I bought a 2008 Shadow Aero in great shape last year. Totally satisfied. Love it :)
Just got an 04 are, lm loving it so far.
My dad had this same bike with dam near the same set up. He always had big touring bikes my whole life but as he got older this was perfect for him. He missed the passing power for highway 70mph+ but would always say if you just wanna get out and cruise around (that was 2-4 hours of driving around the state to him) its all you need.
I was looking for a nice cruiser project, ideally an 1100. I got a Shadow 750 for cheap that didn't need much. Haven't looked back since, that was 5 years ago now.
I am in that exact situation myself, I have seen a nice 750 (nice for a bit of a clean up project lol) and your comment has helped me decide!
I had a 89 Shadow 1100 and hated to sell it abot 10 years ago, looking to replacement and keep seeing the 750s tease me. I dont see why they ar $1000 cheaper than the 1100s. I am pushing 60 and dont need the speed.
@@bnighter Unless you're really heavy, the 750 has enough kick to keep you hooked.
@@fgcvhhbvjhbj I’m 5’4 120lb you think I’ll do good in this bike?
((It grows hair's..))
BAHAHA, that part had me busting up (regarding wind shield) 😂👍
I've always wanted a Honda Shadow, after watching some of your videos about the Shadow. I want one even more. Just looks like the perfect bike for me.
AND NOW I HAVE ONE
@@Vulcan_Tech nice job! What year?
@@Vulcan_Tech congratulations 🎉🥳
Ride safe sir
Got an 07 vT750 C Aero a week ago at a local motorcycle dealership here in my town. Got it at a special price and I am absolutely in love with this cruiser. Took it out for a quick freeway ride and it runs fast and it’s super comfortable ride!
My wife has a '08 honda shadow 750 spirit and I find that at highway speeds, the floorboards are buzzy as well as the handlebar. Overall it's a nice bike
Totally brilliant narrative. (And a great review!)
Nice review, what was the phone holder you recommend that requires a matching case?
Love my 1100 shadow sabre...learned to ride on it.. 3rd season for me.
The 98-00 VT1100 Shadow Aero was the years that were super cool. They had the single pin crank, beach bars, wide whites, two tone paint, and the speedo in the headlight. I have one and it's never going anywhere.
It’s a great bike for any skill rider. I’ve been riding longer than most and have a Bandit 1200 for fast fun and a Shadow 750 to poke around on and take it easy. You can use it for a bar hopper or what I would call a short trip cruiser. Trips of a 1,000 miles or less. You go go cross country easy on it but it wouldn’t be as nice Tom up as a big Tour bike. Just a great do anything kinda cruiser
That's so cool, i'm a 6'3 and i'm looking into getting into this after seeing a nice black shadow in my neighbourhood today. Just cruising and whatnot, would be totally worth it coming from an M4.
I just got my first bike, a used 2012 Honda Shadow Phantom. Absolutely love it!!! Such a great bike.
In this video, you talk about storms and hurricanes occurring and how crazy it is. I’m watching it in 2020... 😂😂😂
Aww, your video ended like the episodes from The Sopranos
Got my 09 shadow 750 a month ago. First bike. Love it. 🤘
Had a 2001 A.C.E. model. Put 50,000 miles on it. Lots of good times. Great for the back roads. I prefer a bigger bike for the slab; always felt these bikes could use another gear on top.
I live in Houston TX and my VT1100 Shadow took a swim for a couple days. I'm close to getting another one because of how much I like them.
Dry it out take out all four spark plugs and spin it up give it new oil and air cleaner element, plugs and fire it up I would be willing to say your swimmer is still a great bike .
Great bike I have a 2003 shadow ace chromed out bought it when I lived in west palm had it shipped back to UK in 2016 great vid by the way
Do you have any reviews on the shadow 600s?
I’m curious if I’ll fit on one I can’t find any locally or I’d go sit on it I’m 6’2” as well !! Trying to find out before I drive 2-3 hours away to look at one
may I ask about your saddlebags? did tehy came with the bike or where did u get them? are those viking brand ? thanks in advance.
I have had US Saddlebags (made in Mass and you can actually talk to the owner) on my bike since 2006. They still look great.
Just bought a 2009 750 today !
Love it !
Yep I love my 06 shadow it's a typical Honda and does everything well it's not the fastest bike out there but quite happily sits there at 70-75 all day long
I just bought a 2003 spirit with the purple flames Vance and hines lots after market chrome. I love it and I use to own a 2005 1200 custom sporty and I like this more..
Love just watching your reviews of bikes
I just traded in my '01 750 for a 1300 VTX and there is no big deal. I mean the VTX is a more comfortable cruiser with more power and weight to hold the rod better and it rides smoother. But the 750 was a fun bike to ride and I do miss it, but I can't have three bikes in my shop (also own an VT1100 shadow) The 750 is great bike and I'd ride it across the country with no problem.
would the 750 shadow be a good next motorcycle for me i have a 250 rebel right now
I know this is from a while ago, but where did you get your Highway Bars (Engine Bars?)? I've been dying to get a set for a reasonable price for my Shadow Aero...any ideas?
Last summer I followed (on my Spirit 1100) a friend on her 750 Aero for about 200 miles and she was doing 80-85 mph all the way.
Love the words of wisdom man, keep rockin
Great show , I own a "05" Honda Shadow Spirit . I still have my 80's 450 Nighthawk .
Hell yeah. I've had my '03 Ace for about 5 or 6 years now and I had a '99 750 Nighthawk as my first bike. I liked the NightHawk, but it was ungodly uncomfortable for me to ride more than about 45 minutes...
+1 on the anti windshield. I'm too tall for them and I just get a lot of turbulence that shakes my head around. Without them is smooth.
I've sat on this bike (2017 model) and the Vulcan 900 custom. Both are super comfortable. I'm 6'6" and go between 215 and 225. Being that you're a taller rider, which would you go with as a new rider?
Great channel. I'm a new rider and these videos are helping me decide what to get for my first bike. Been riding my buddy's 1200 sportster and I love it but I don't think I need that much.. I'm 145.. thinkin about a 750 shadow or a 883. Love these videos
You really need something smaller than a 750 to learn on. My first was a 100 Suzuki next was a 400. Next was a 1100 Yamaha which was too top heavy for me. Next a 750 magma that was perfect. Now I have a 750 Honda shadow spirit
I have a 2002 Honda Shadow spirit. It has 80,000 miles. Only expense is tires, oil changes and air filter. I redline it all the time. It has been rejetted and is pretty quick. They are tough motorcycles . The only thing I recommend is a Ragina racing chain and sprockets....
Great review on the bike! Funny ass commentary too😂💀
What tire brands do you recommend for best grip n longevity
Do y’all recommend this for a beginner ?
Does anyone know where or how I could restore the speedometer and odometer on a 2006? Mine are not working, screen is toasted and needle came off.
What kind of windsock is your gopro wearing ?
I got my 2012 Phantom up to 100mph on the highway the other day with 400lbs of flesh on the back. The 750 is more than enough for anyone who wants a reliable bike for riding instead of flash.
Thumb up just for the word of wisdom! Keep it up man
The perfect bike for me. I love my 2000 ace
I have 2009 Honda Shadow Spirit. My 4th Honda. Thanks for making the video.
So I’ve watched your videos a lot recently since I’m buying my first bike and I just now realized you live in Lancaster PA 😂😂 I used to live in Elizabethtown!
I bought my wife a 750 Shadow I've owned them before just like the one he's riding I took it out for a test ride had it cruising at 90 they're great bikes
A 750 is all you need for a nice highway bike. Back in my day used to have an R-75/5 and it did just fine on the highway.
My first road bike was a Kawa 90. I put 5000 miles on it in one summer, mainly highway. Done tons of long-distance cruising on a Yami Maxim 400, and rode across Canada on a Virago 750. You DEFINITELY don't need 1100 cc's to cruise! But I like the lower RPM of the Shadow at highway speeds (the Virago was turning 4500 or so at 100 km/h). Might be my next bike (and another cruise across Canada!)
Had my 2003 vt750 DC spirit for a while. I'd recommend it. Getting it back up and running now after sitting because of a new baby. Question for the shadow experts out there. The stock front tire is 110 80 19. Hard to find locally. Would a 110 90 19 fit this beast? Thanks in advance
what year did these go from chain drive to shaft drive?
My first brand new bike I bought was the shadow ace 750 97 or 98 it was brand new I've owned many cruisers currently a vtx 1800 but that shadow was sweet wished I kept for short rides around town and stuff like that great motorcycle I'm heavy guy not real tall but it was big enough for highway cruising plenty of go power
Ditto! 1998 shadow. Customized. Im 250 and it was plenty for me. I own a indian scout to continue the style and i love it but i miss my shadow too and rode it till 2016..
I bought a Vulcan 800 road it for a year then a 1500 nomad then traded it for another brand new bike in 2000 Yamaha 1600 roadstar now I own the vtx 1800 i still loved every bike I had
Bro, how about 0-60 test for shadow 750, vlx 600 and vstar 650?
I just bought a Honda shadow 600vt and I love mine this bike looks great too!
Michael Faulkner watch that duel carb lol
I have a 2015 harley street bob. Rode it 3.5 hours to a rally this summer with my girlfriend following me in the truck with her 2002 honda shadow 600 vlx. Well my harley died on me 5 miles into the way back home and i had to put it in the trailer and ride the girlfriend's shadow back. What a nice ride. Bike was awesome. Comfortable, just enough power to keep up with traffic, smooth, just all around a great purchase. Glad she bought it and id ride it anytime.
I have the same aero bike same color black cherry love it. It was 1st true bike upgraded from Ruckus. It's an intermediate bike quite heavy n powerful not so easy to learn. I went with 750cc not planning to upgrade soon. Wish it's abit higher ground clearance. So far so good
I’ve always loved the Honda Cruisers. I have owned a Yamaha Roadstar for the last 4 years with no issues, but, am looking at buying a VTX 1800 just because I love the way they ride. Still not parting with the Roadstar though.
I rode one of these many times on the highway (70 mph) without a windshield for about 6 to 8 hours and the body fatigue from sitting up in constant wind was ridiculous! Nothing manly about feeling dog-tired while riding 75 mph!. Got a Memphis Shades full windshield, and it makes a huge improvement on highway rides. Plus it blocks the 1,000 bugs that wanted to splat my face and jacket. I like this guy's video but his advice about windshields is way off. If you get the right height and angle, a windshield makes highway rides so easy. On this bike, the right height is top of windshield even with the tip of your nose. The right angle on this bike is when windshield follows the angle of the forks perfectly, like a linear extension of the forks if you step off and look from either side. Most everything else he said, I agree with. Other good upgrade: mini floorboards instead of stock footpegs. The stock handlebars vibrated along with high engine RPM's at highway speed, so I got heavier handlebars.
Yeah. I have a wittle bitty windshield. Normally not a problem but windy days make me work a bit harder. Can be crazy. 🤪
right guy doesnt ride enough to take his advice on anything, windsheilds i used to and still think their ugly, but now that ive riden behind one,, i wont fly any other way not for long hauls at least, and anyone who says you dont need a 1500 for cruiser smh its better to have and not need than need and not have, and Cruiser implies (CRUISING) so you get 350lbs of gear on a 750cc shit with your lady riding backburner you aint hardly passing road signs,
Love the bike sweet thanks for sharing God bless!
I love honda shadows. I own a 84 vt700. Plenty of power for me. I agree with your comments about windshields. I have that same issue.
I have a Shadow Aero 750, 2009, 22.3.K, 50 mpg avg, and recently was thinking of selling. Here is my list of additions:
"A picture is worth a thousand words: Drive Shaft (NOT Chain), Fairing with no cracks, Valves balanced and tune up 2019, steel side covers (not plastic), leather locking saddle bags with key, luggage rack, sissy backrest, driver backrest, engine guards, Hondaline light bar and highway lights with on/off switch, wide rear view mirrors, rear tire 2015, front tire with excellent tread, new battery (2020).
After watching all the videos comparing Rebel 300, 500, and looking at bikes by other companies inbetween and of different sizes, none of them is as great as the Aero. Did you know that you can get a driver back rest? So does the faring- keeps 90 of the bugs kissing me... ;) I have one and it makes a big difference on those long runs and all those bumps... It is fast, cool as a cucumber, packed with accessories. Thank you for the video... MD
This is the Bike I’d have if I could ride. (I’m Visually Impaired) It Looks like I think a Motorcycle should look. Honda’s are Said to be very reliable & you & others have said that it’s a good starter bike. GOD Bless You.
Listen to this kind gentleman everyone. Never take for granted what God has blessed you with. You are not promised anything in this life. Always be greatful and praise Jesus Christ!
Most people are talking about power... I Own a 1990 Shadow 1100, No one man should have all that power (30 years ago).
I love that you quote the word off the hop
I just took delivery of a 2022 Honda Shadow Aero which has sat at a local Powersports dealership for a year. The salesman was kind enough to fill the factory empty fuel tank for me. I drove the bike 3 miles home on an 80 degree day. It sat in the sun for about an hour in the driveway. I went out to install a bag onto the passenger seat and detected a strong gasoline smell. I then noticed a 6 inch diameter fuel spill in the ground under the left side of the bike. I kneeled down and noticed two small hoses pointing down and one of the hoses was dripping gasoline. I called the dealership and they sent out my salesman and he wondered why, what he called an overflow hose was leaking fuel. Overflow hose on a fuel injected bike? He then opened the fuel cap and the level was right at the bottom of the filler neck, It was still dripping fuel the next day during the heat of the day. I’ve had two 650 Yamahas and a 103 HD Heritage Softail and never encountered an overflow line. The salesman said they will send someone out on Tuesday, tomorrow June 6 to trailer it back to the dealership. I’ve read this has happened to other Honda 750 Shadow and Phantom owners in a Shadow Forum who had to live with this, what I define as a defect, by not filling the tank up to the fuel filler neck, but somewhere below, which one owner defined as the sweet spot. What in the world?!?! kind of design is this? I described in writing to Honda, Powersports Division a day ago on their website. No reply yet. I refused to ride the leaking bike to the dealership as they asked when I called. I was enthralled with the bike as I was riding it home and I hope the dealership can come up with a solution. Have you experienced or heard of this and what is the other overflow line next to that fuel overflow?
I have a 2009 Aero...except mine's black with snakeskin flames on it...2009 was the only year Honda offered that paint job, & only on the Aero...& it's a rare bird too...I've toured it through 10 different states & have yet to see another one like it in person...seen a few pics of others online, but not many even then...never could get an exact production number, as Honda only keeps up with the number of bikes produced, but not the numbers for specific paint schemes...I'm currently murdering it out...looking sweet...🖖🏿😎👍🏿
What’s happened in the bike world. 750 cc Is a big bike, especially with your speed limits. It must be more than adequate.
