Not a Honda Nighthawk 750! The dropdown menu doesn't have my bike, a Honda Shadow 600 VLX. This bike has been a reliable toy for 21 years. It's given me the ride, the play, the outdoors, the get-away-from-it-all that I bought it for. Bought it when I was 47. Haven't had time to ride much in the past few years so it's time to pass it on. It's a lot of bike and a lot of accessories for the price. Perfect for newer riders or smaller riders and women who don't want a big, heavy bike. New bikes are too expensive for people starting to ride. I would rate Comfort at 4 stars and the rest of the metrics above at 5.

Great condition Honda Shadow 750cc Spirit. Just under 30K miles. I have gone and bought myself something bigger so it’s time for this beauty to go to someone else. This bike is light, loud and easy to handle. Shaft Drive and very low maintenance. It has been a great first bike. New tires last year and new battery this year. I have the title. It is also set up for a battery charger. No test rides without cash.

I actually wanted the 2023 Honda Shadow Phantom in Adventure Green, but couldn't find one close enough to where I live. I found the Phantom in Matte Black, thought maybe I'd just paint it, but...the Shadow Aero, which looked incredibly ugly in photos, looked surprisingly good in real life, with striking blue and cream paint. I sat on both bikes, but I fit better on the Shadow Aero, as it has a higher seat height than the Phantom. And I bought the Shadow Aero. The Shadow Aero is a very different ride from my 2006 Honda VTX 1300C, which I'm glad I didn't trade in. Of course, the Shadow Aero, which is half the size of the VTX, doesn't have massive reserves of power, but if you give it a chance, you'll find that it has power enough, and you'll get over 50 miles per gallon, which is sweet. The Shadow Aero is fuel injected, the VTX is carburated, so the Shadow Aero rolls on the power less suddenly than the VTX, but it certainly has enough get up and go for a speedy takeoff or for passing. And it's a showy bike. I call it my mini-cruiser. It gets lots of compliments; even people who aren't motorcyclists find the whole look of the Shadow Aero very pleasing. The one problem I've found is the seat. Although it is a nice-looking design, riding on it is truly a pain in the butt. After an hour of riding, my tailbone is so sore that I have difficulty moving my legs off the footpegs onto the ground. Excruciatingly painful. Bear in mind that I bought my VTX used with a Corbin seat, which isn't a problem even on all-day rides, so I know there are more comfortable seats available. Maybe the original seat on the VTX was as much of a PITA as the one on the Shadow Aero; I dunno. This is just my second week with the Shadow Aero, and the uncomfortable seat is the only really vexing problem I've found. My solution will be to remove the seat cover and place a combination of memory foam and gel that feels better to me, then I'll refit the original seat cover onto my 'improved comfort' seat. There seems to be plenty of room between the rigid foam and the cover, so I think that will work. Increasing the seat height a bit will be fine for me; the Shadow Aero has a much lower seat height than my VTX 1300C, and I'm quite comfortable on the VTX; I just ride in a bit of a different style on the Shadow Aero---I call it riding 'small' (although I must admit that on my first couple of miles on the Shadow Aero, before I figured out how to adjust myself to the bike, I felt a bit like a Shriner, riding on a motorcycle that seemed very tiny compared to the size of the VTX !) I really don't want to spend $700 to $1000 on an aftermarket seat, especially when considering that the base price for the Shadow Aero is less than $8000. Adding padding to the original seat seems a much more reasonable solution. When I've resolved the seat problem, I'll be very happy with my 2023 Honda Shadow Aero.

Hillsboro Motosports purchase of a 2021 HONDA CBR300R. DO NOT deal with these shady people. Classic bait and switch techniques. They seems to get good reviews; however, they are not very professional nor honest with customers. They've apparently had it too easy. Honesty in customer salesmanship is not in their in the offing. I have spent a good deal of amount of money in previous years with good and reliable M/C shops, but never here.

So I just purchased my first 1997 Honda Nighthawk 750cb, and let me tell you, these things are sleepers as far as engine reliability and power. The 75hp is as some us would say a great takeoff and catch up machine but, they like that 55mph to 65mph sweet spot (about 4200rpm) 5th gear just a sweet cruiser that handles with ease gets me about 50mpg and 1000 smiles to the gallon.Its not the crazy tiptoe 5 gear 120mph type, doing 0-60 in about 4.5s it has pep but its that middle line between over and under powered a mutual relationship ever biker considers for when looking into a new ride. even for lighter riders, At 6'3" 170lbs myself i can one hand this off the ground if needed, I grunt but it is doable at approx 500lbs and still A newer rider, i have no fears of trying to hold onto it at stops.The ride height is perfect for my chicken/toothpick legs, yet my wife 5'5" athletic build has to tip toe and side crotch the saddle a little to get her feet down. With a size 12 steel toe i recommend trying to move your shift peg position up for your foot noticed the boot sits low like real low touches before the pegs when you bank and lean because of the angle your toe is at. For what it means to you it truly is one of the greats as far as reliability honda hit the nail with this engine theres a reason they haven't changed in so many years of production you will notice basic maintaining more than wrenching (p.s take the carb in its do-able but takes alot of time and patience, like alot of patience 😉) hands down one of the best cruising commuter bikes I've been on been riding 43 miles one way to work with it every chance I get and wouldn't trade it or sell it I will hold onto this gem for future generations because I am certain it will still be running the same by that point in its life.... hope this helps!!!!!

For anyone looking for the best all around cheap street bike, look no further. 31,282 miles on the clock and I've never touched the motor or even the carbs. Pros: Dead reliable, excellent engine and transmission, Good torquey power, quality made, easy to maneuver around town for a rather heavy bike, confident solid handling (lives high speed sweepers), comfortable riding position, nice exhaust note, naked retro looks, easy to work on, cheap to buy and maintain. Cons: Brakes are reliable and don't fade, but stopping power is all in front. Rear drum feels slightly wooden, and locks up easy, could use a 6th gear for better freeway cruising, not even a gas gauge on mine but no biggie..one less thing to break...I use the odometer (get about 140 miles on a tank but I weigh 235 and 6'2" frame), She's a bit cold blooded on cool mornings at start up... Choke it to 2000 rpm for a couple minutes or she'll stumble. Overall a satisfying personality with juicy power and yet no racer pretensions. It's not as quick and fast as many bikes, but considering it's age, it keeps up surprisingly well and does everything you ask it to.
