  • Review of my VT750DC after 1,000 miles of ownership. Great motorcycle for touring and 2up after minor modifications.
    Muffler Mod DIY HERE. Not in this video but I did also drilled out the honeycomb plate after the tip was out. That made it sound a lot better and less of a tin sound.

    I have this same bike. Fully stock. No windshield, no saddle bags just me and 45 horses and the black top. I would love to have the cruse control though. Very nice bike man!

    One of the most reliable cruisers by far. They're also easy on the eyes too. I love Shadows. Great bikes.

    Cool man. My dad has this same bike and just gave it to me. He's going to buy a gold wing. Before this bike I was riding a moped.

    I have a 2009. It will go 110 with a windshield, I get 52 to 60mpg depending on mountains or basin riding. But, it's not a highway bike. It needs a 6th gear, and it's a little light on its feet at 70. Put a passenger on the back, and she will feel every bump on the road. If you want a highway bike, go bigger. After 150 miles, you are spent on this bike. It's super-reliable, and fun for whipping around town. SDBrockets, this is a very nice video.

      The baggers are cool but if I need all those creature comforts I'll just drive my dang car. Riding should be about riding, not trying to build a recliner on wheels. To each their own.

    This is one of the nicest looking cruisers made by Honda. I like it without bags, windshield and sissy bar though.

    Nice bike. I have the exact same. Mines a 2007. I love it, can't get enough riding time. I'd like to talk to the owner and find out where he got his saddle bags and other accessories. I have a smaller set of saddleman bags right now but what he has on his bike would be much better and larger and lockable too. Cheers!

    I have the same Memphis windshield setup on my SS VT1100C. I was (was) going to delete the windshield but comfort is king. I did remove the saddles.

    • @SBDrockets
      @SBDrockets  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Wally W at 6:48 there’s the company address and phone number you can call, I bought the bike with them on but you could try to find them online, LeatherLyke saddle bags

    • @SBDrockets
      @SBDrockets  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Very nice bike. Thanks for the video. Is that a 13 inch wind shield? I like the shorter ones. Memphis Shades?

    Nice bike! Would you recommend this over a Yamaha vstar 750 for a beginner?

    • @SBDrockets
      @SBDrockets  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      TX Camper you should drive both and make the decision. I haven't rode the Yamaha so I can't say.

  • @REAPERxx420
    @REAPERxx420 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    So I'm going to look at one of these today. My question is does it coast at 80mph on the highway without being in the higher rpms?

    Nice video man. How tall are you and how's the leg room on the bike?

    • @SBDrockets
      @SBDrockets  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks, I am 5.5 with plenty of leg room. Unfortunately this bike was sold. The buyer was about 6ft and he was fine on leg room.

    • @BlakeRTyler
      @BlakeRTyler 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Awesome, thanks for the response! I'm about 5'8 and looking to move to either a 750, 1100, or a 1200. I'm currently on a Shadow 600. It's comfortable and fun, but on longer rides it's a bit cramped.

    • @Flabbycakes

      Why did you sell it?

    • @SBDrockets

    Youi motorcycle liiks like my 2001 VT750DC. We have the same LeatyherLyke Saddlebags.
    Where did you get your Luggage Rack and who is ther manufacturer. I have the large LeatherLyke Cruiser Case. The rack I have is too small. It looks like yours would fit.
    I also did the mod on with the 38T sprocket, took out chain links, and changed the clutch springs. I didn't do the timing advance yet. Now I don't need to look for a 6th gear at highway speeds. Did you do the pipes or the hole-saw mod on the stock pipes?
    Check out the other suggested mods at: www.vt750dc.com/mods-and-info
    Ride safe!

    • @SBDrockets
      @SBDrockets  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This bike has the hole saw mod with adjusted carb screws to allow more fuel into the motor to balance the extra air let in, and my rack is from Cobra
