Lmao classy… it’s straight copying Harley in every way imaginable.. don’t get me wrong Honda builds a quality machine but there is nothing original about this bike… if I’m not mistaken these things are really limited in power now.. like a 750cc.

I was never a fan of all blacked out bikes, but they have grown on me. I thought Honda did a great job here with the paint, styling and little accents to break it up a little. These 750's are bulletproof too!
yeah i just sold my 2011 shadow .... the value tanks on them compared to the harleys unfortunately..... it only blue booked for 4000 and the same year (and within a couple hundred dollars when new) iron 883 blue books for 5800... the only problem i had was this bike is really small im 6ft 3 and this thing is basically a girls bike... not a lot of power, maxes out at probably 85-90 ... cant pass quickly at highway speeds... its great for beginners tho and looks good... just wish it had more umph.....
yes stock exhaust. I just cut out the baffles. Bike was a little to quiet. Especially after I almost got ran over by a older lady. I decided to make myself a bit more noticeable.
+tkr he liked it. He rides a Sportster 883 that he has bored out and souped up to close to 1000 cc. Since he's not a tall guy my phantom fit him perfect since it's low. only thing he noticed was that the Phantom is a but wider than his Harley.
+Antony G I'm a first time bike buyer and am trying to decide between this bike and the Harley Sportser. The biggest deciding factor is that I'm 6'2. any recommendations?
+Trevor Ward, I would go with the Harley. I'm 5' 10 and my bike is on the low side for me. I chose the Honda for its price. If an 883 sportster is too much? Harley now makes a Harley Street 750. I would look into that. It has received good reviews.
I agree, I'm a 26-year rider, and have had nothing but HDs until I bought a 2007 Yamaha Royal Star tour deluxe. The Yamaha has been a great bike for me, more reliable by leaps and bounds than any HD I've had. She's got 50k on her now and in the future, I'll get another Yamaha likely. They are considered the most reliable brand on the market with Honda nipping at their heels. Either way you don't go wrong.
Kawasaki is a very close 2nd to yamaha. I've have more bikes them I can remember and beat on every one of them. Kawasaki is the onely one so far that's broken or spent any time in a shop. It's usually for something small like carbs need to be synced up or a gasket blew from wringer her out at well over 100. But most recently my 83 blew a head up while I was going through kansas. Hasn't left my buddys garage in a year or so. Last I heard he's buying and converting it to electric.
Yup. I'm lucky enough to own both. A 2012 Yam 660 Tenere which has been very reliable BUT I had to laugh when twice this year my 1984 Goldwing had to go out and get parts to fix the Yamaha.🤣 The old Honda truck is amazing.

hmmm sounds really cool!:) TTB< buttt I crashed my little faithful Shadow when I met a deer.... when I was not paying attention and looking elsewhere yip....shit but cool thing is I hurt only for a short time and I am not dead either so now I want a newer and bigger bike and new Helmet too. saving my money so slowly but saving none the less RH100 any donations?
I went and checked out the 2018 because of this video. My choice is down to this or a Vulcan by springtime, although I must say I’m heavily leaning towards the Honda 👍🏼
I had a 2009, pearl metallic white Shadow. Loved that bike. Traded it for a 2012 Honda State Line. Loved that Bike. Bought a 2009, low mileage Gold Wing.... made me wish I had the Shadow and Stateline again. Wings are fabulous bikes for cruising long days, but to just go out and ride... Shadow or State Line were optimal. And "Honda" is a Japanese word for "Bullet-proof".
Ohhhhhh. My bad. I'm know hardly anything about cruisers and looking to get one soon. That's why I've been watching tons of vids on cruisers. All that aside, your Shadow is gorgeous. It's How I want my future cruiser to look.
i'm considering this one its a beautiful bike. it will be my first motorcycle i'm also thinking about the 750cc Harley Street. Both seem very similar but the honda looks like it may be a bit more comfortable to ride. I'm 6'1" but i dont mind a little scrunch.
I own 2006 Honda Shadow Aero Classic VT750 C, it is one of the last ones with dual Carburetors, 4 spark plugs, Liquid cooled V-Twin model, has rear drive shafts so no chains to maintain, no issues so far, just normal maintenance, a beautiful machine which rides comfortably well. Honda is built to last, they know their bikes.
Hi Antony , I bought this same motorcycle recently but it is 2020, would you recommend using the exhaust that fits with the motorcycle or using one with a silencer? Or would you recommend a stock exhaust to be more noticeable on the road for the issue of my safety, please, what would you recommend? thank you regards
I am 64 yrs. old have owned triumps ,harleys. one that I built. one tat got a ribbon in sandiego show. have had two heart attacks, got arthritis. and bad ears. my son is 30 yrs. my jr. with an electra gluide. and I would love to purchace a bike like that and go for one more last long ride with him if my body could handle it. Listened to a lot of you guys and your one up manship bs. you should shut up and enjoy the ride while you can. Wish I could do it one more time,clear cross country.
Thanks for the advice. I appreciate you looking out. Sometimes the younger generations forget what's important, which is the now... will never come again.
I'll tell you, I love all bikes. My first bike was a Honda. Second was a sportster, 3rd is now a Drz400. I still have the sportster, looking to get a Honda cbr300 now, lol
I own a 94 Magna that I totally love. There is a point in getting a Harley, at least for me. I like all motorcycles except BMW'S, I'm not a fan of them.
@@highplainshollarhomestead3188 I've never owned one either. Never ridden one. I just don't like them. Maybe if I rode one I'd change my mind. Who knows?
I ride a Harley and recently rode a friend's Shadow. It is smoother, has better suspension, an easier clutch, better brakes, and quicker acceleration than my bike. It is, by all measures, a better bike. Period. However, I enjoy my bike's quirks.
I love Hondas! I wish Harleys didn't break all the time. My first 2 bikes were shadows but now I have a Indian which are super nice but my Hondas I could ride all day with zero issues!
Eh, I like it . It's a nice bike . Ride what you can and get out there ! Let it be about the experience . I have a Harley and 2 Hondas , they're all great in their own way .
you must be right because no one ever.in the history of motorcycle ownership.not once.it's not even legal.never ever bought the smallest air cooled street bike Harley makes as their first bike.
TheGreenGuy I added an after market exhaust. Small wind shield. It really made a difference. Cobra air intake and I was going to get a mustang seat but sold my bike.
i'd recommend getting a biger exhaust . i own one and hand to get some cobra pipes put on because it wasnt loud enough . my brother had the same bike and would run into the same problems. so keep that in mind.
Damn.. that looks and sounds bad ass.. I really like this.. I would really like to get one of these.. but I don't even have a motorcycle endorsement Lol.
This guy is not a Rider. Doesn't matter what bike you ride, it's feet up while moving. And I read in the comments that he sold his Sportster. A Rider would not sell one unless he had another one or is buying a new one.. But it may be a natural reaction for a Harley rider after riding a Honda.
My phantom, too, the baffle was removed and to be honest it sounds better than an aftermarket pipe. Not as loud but not too quite. Sounds like a factory performance exhaust.
u dont know what ur talking about just because a bike is new to someone doesnt mean shit, your comment looke like u dont even have a motorcycle dumbass.
He must have thought it was a piece of shit otherwise we would have heard his opinion. Wasn't that the whole point of this video? What does a Harley rider think of a Honda? Who the fuck knows now.
Antony G He said what at the end tusk bumper? I heard no meaningful insight on the bike at all. Nothing. I agree with Afterburner, he must not be too impressed with the bike or we would have heard more about it on this shit video, tusk bumper.
Checkmate Lol, tusk bumper!! Was I wrong in thinking that there was going to be a discussion on the bike compared to a Harley? That's why I clicked on the video, not to watch some dude ride up the street and back. You're right, he is a tusk bumper 🤣
Afterburner I thought he was going to say something conservative but instead all I saw was a shitty video with little more than some dude, who may or may not know his left hand from his right, riding up the street and back. Then Mr. Tuskbumper has the audacity to call you an idiot for daring to point out the facts, fuck him and this crappy video.
Points to be noted: 1. Harley riders are often short heighed. 2. You should freak them out by giving them a sports bike like Yamaha R1M or Honda FIreblade, or H2R ;)
He is probably trying to figure out what he is supposed to do with a bike that doesn't break every time you look at it.

Mason Mcknight im 5' 10 220lbs. Its a really low bike. Honestly though, I felt just a tiny bit cramped. Definitely not for riders taller than 6 ft.
tell him,he looks great on ya bike..
Que escapes tiene? La mia no suena asi. Los abriste? O cuales pusiste? Gracias. Me gusta el sonido
I ride the Aero VT750 , I notice your clutch also whinnes at engagement point , is this normanl on Shadows ?
a beast..
Nice!
Nice bike bro ! Looks good in all black.
What year and version is it? Did you changed something? I like the all black on it
What year bike is this, Antony?
aWildWaterMelonAppears 2014
so what did he think of your bike?
Dan Angeles he was impressed. All he has ever ridden were Harley's.
Nice sounding bike! Looks really good
Super clean bike, love it
No helmet, no leathers, beard, glasses, cruiser = pure badass
Thanks bro
0:30 finaly show his face
okay, this is called love at the first sight. what a classy bike
I have a honda shadow aero 750 with those same pipes....love those vane & hines
People. This is not my house. I could careless about the stupid sidewalk.
This guy is not a Rider. Doesn't matter what bike you ride, it's feet up while moving. And I read in the comments that he sold his Sportster. A Rider would not sell one unless he had another one or is buying a new one.. But it may be a natural reaction for a Harley rider after riding a Honda.
i got a 07 shadow bought it in 07 with 536 miles on her. now shes got 27000 on her. love my bike
My phantom, too, the baffle was removed and to be honest it sounds better than an aftermarket pipe. Not as loud but not too quite. Sounds like a factory performance exhaust.
Looks like Post Malone drives motorcycles on his free time
That dude looks like he's never been on a motorcycle before.
u dont know what ur talking about just because a bike is new to someone doesnt mean shit, your comment looke like u dont even have a motorcycle dumbass.
+Antony G, I just got a phantom today. How did you remove the baffles?
You'll need a drill, two inch hole saw and drill bit. It shouldn't take more than 30 mins. There's tons of videos that also show you how.
Nice bike, I just started out on a Harley Sportster. But this looks and sounds great!
Nice ass bike!
He acts more like a Huffy rider than a Harley rider.
Damn. Should have been top comment. How did this comment not blow up. Mad underrated
Beautiful ride. I'd kill for one of those.
I wanted to hear his reaction or hear you say how was it or something ! Lol good vid
He must have thought it was a piece of shit otherwise we would have heard his opinion. Wasn't that the whole point of this video? What does a Harley rider think of a Honda? Who the fuck knows now.
Afterburner He says it at the end idiot.
Antony G He said what at the end tusk bumper? I heard no meaningful insight on the bike at all. Nothing. I agree with Afterburner, he must not be too impressed with the bike or we would have heard more about it on this shit video, tusk bumper.
Checkmate Lol, tusk bumper!! Was I wrong in thinking that there was going to be a discussion on the bike compared to a Harley? That's why I clicked on the video, not to watch some dude ride up the street and back. You're right, he is a tusk bumper 🤣
Afterburner I thought he was going to say something conservative but instead all I saw was a shitty video with little more than some dude, who may or may not know his left hand from his right, riding up the street and back. Then Mr. Tuskbumper has the audacity to call you an idiot for daring to point out the facts, fuck him and this crappy video.
lol took me 3 times to hear what he say , the exhaust are loud
Points to be noted:
1. Harley riders are often short heighed.
2. You should freak them out by giving them a sports bike like Yamaha R1M or Honda FIreblade, or H2R ;)
I like Harleys and all but damn those Shadows are clean looking bikes!
so cool loco!!! greetings from england
your other left!
I love post Malone
Mike No 😂
Mike No 😂😂😭😭😭
My next bike for sure, put 21k miles on my CBR 300R, its time for a smooth upgrade..a nice comfy cruiser (;
Is this a stock set?if not what did you change. the sound of the bike sounds dayumm
