INTRODUCTON

• With a new fuel injections system ensuring easier starts, smoother, more responsive performance and better compatibility with the environment, the new Shadow VT750C makes complete riding enjoyment much more easily accessible to a wider range of riders, from relative newcomers to more experienced souls rekindling an old love affair with the road

INTRODUCTION

• The new Shadow’s attractive retro styling is highlighted by plush saddle-type seat, a more comfortably swept set of handlebars and a new dual shotgun exhaust system that delivers an inspiring throb of sound and feeling for the perfect accompaniment to any time spent in its saddle. All beautifully comes together in Honda’s latest generation 750cc class V-twin Custom for the best fit and best styling at the best value money can buy

STYLING

• New, larger 14.6-litre fuel tank capacity (from 14.0 litres), same as Shadow Spirit
• Newly designed instrument panel with relocated indicators mounted on fuel tank. Yellow low fuel indicator mounted on upper triple-tree
• New shape handlebars with custom-looking cast aluminium risers

• Classic Honda V-twin engine features new PGM-FI fuel-injection system with single 34mm throttle body, dual injectors and IACV (Idle Air Control Valve) for smoother, stronger and more responsive performance, better fuel economy and lower emissions

• Smooth-shifting five-speed transmission

CHASSIS

• New fuel injection and emissions control system increases weight slightly, though new dual exhaust is actually lighter than earlier 2-into-1 system
