This is a nice bike for a first cruiser. Rides smooth on the highway, handles well on the twisties. This is the bike I used for the advanced rider course, and it sailed through. It's quiet, so it won't piss off the neighbors when you warm it up (it's carbed.) It is reliable, no down time. Just hop on, push the starter button and go. Not a lot of gadgets to go wrong, but you do need to track mileage because their is no fuel gauge (there is a reserve tank with .7 gals to get you to the station.) No much more to say, it's just old school fun.

The 2015 Honda Shadow Aero is a testament to Honda’s commitment to crafting timeless and reliable motorcycles. This cruiser stands out with its classic retro styling, combining a low-slung saddle, ample chrome, and a teardrop fuel tank that harken back to the golden age of motorcycling. The 745cc V-twin engine offers smooth, responsive power that is perfect for both city commuting and longer highway rides. Riders will appreciate the Shadow Aero’s comfort, thanks to its well-padded seat and relaxed riding position. The bike’s low seat height (at just 25.9 inches) makes it accessible for riders of all sizes, ensuring confidence and control at all times. The shaft drive is another standout feature, providing a low-maintenance and reliable option compared to chain-driven alternatives. Handling is superb for a cruiser of this class, with the bike feeling stable and balanced at both low and high speeds. The suspension, featuring a 41mm front fork and dual shocks in the rear, absorbs road imperfections with ease, contributing to a smooth and comfortable ride. The braking system, with a front disc and rear drum brake, provides adequate stopping power and instills confidence in various riding conditions. One of the most impressive aspects of the 2015 Shadow Aero is its build quality. The fit and finish are excellent, with every detail meticulously crafted. This attention to detail, combined with Honda’s legendary reliability, ensures that the Shadow Aero is a bike that will serve its owner faithfully for many years. In terms of value, the 2015 Honda Shadow Aero is hard to beat. It offers a perfect blend of style, performance, and comfort at a very competitive price point. Whether you are a seasoned rider looking for a dependable cruiser or a newcomer seeking a user-friendly and stylish bike, the Honda Shadow Aero is an excellent choice that delivers on all fronts. Highly recommended.

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.

I am 71 years old with a bad knee from a previous collision with a drunk driver, I'm looking for a bike as my final bike to carry me to the point I can no longer ride, I've owned 35 different bikes in the last 55 years all brands and types, there are advantages and disadvantaged to cruiser sitting position but the bike is fairly comfortable, there's another bike I'm looking at the NT700 but I think the ACE is the one it's lighter than a Harley has plenty of power I've run this thing to 110 mph most evo Harleys won't do that, plenty of luggage space, it handles great and is STABLE in turns like it's on rails, if you like rumbling exhaust of a 45 degree twin you might be disappointed because it's quiet, other than that I love this bike it's bullet proof, reliable old school no gas gauge,, those that say it needs more power I disagree plenty of power love the bike.
