Vt750c

Life is for living and there's no better way to make the most of it than cruising around on the new VT750C Shadow. This brand new model is the ultimate low-rider, with the lowest seat height in its class and the most laid back riding style. The same famed V-twin liquid-cooled 745cc engine is mounted into a traditional style cruiser but with all the modern features to create a reliable machine that will turn heads without costing you the earth to maintain. Shaft drive transmission ensures an easy to maintain bike and low running costs while the low-rider style is achieved by the new double cradle frame and super low retro seat. The Shadow is available with a host of accessories including windscreen, saddlebags, pillion back rest and fender trims, as well as Honda's Ignition Security System (HISS) to make sure no one else gets their hands on your pride and joy.
