1988 Honda Shadow 1100 on 2040-motos

Honda Shadow description

NICE SHADOW 1100 READY TO RIDE!Those who don't look closely probably think this bike really is a Harley, so slick a styling job have Honda done on their big cruiser. There's even a 'Made in USA' logo on the back of the seat. Like Kawasaki's rival 1500cc Vulcan V-twin, not to mention most Harleys, the VT1100C is assembled in the States using a mixture of Japanese and American components.The finned 45-degree V-twin engine looks the part, too, though the slim radiator up front gives away the fact that the 1099cc motor is cooled by water rather than air. It's a typical Honda unit: sohc, 3 valves per cylinder with maintenance-free hydraulic adjustment, and a claimed max output of 59bhp at 5000rpm.The Shadow's chassis is predictably basic, with a simple steel frame holding kicked-out forks and a pair of angled-forward shocks. Wheels are five-spoke alloys, and come in 19-inch front, 15-inch rear sizes, the rear wearing a chunky 170/80-section Dunlop. Braking is by a big single 336mm front disc with twin-pot caliper, plus a 180mm rear drum.Please ask for JOE CANEZ when inquiring about this vehicle, thanks.
