Love the colour, and the bike looks great without a windshield or bags on it. Really lets you see that sort of flowing design that Honda was trying to do with this one. Not real keen on the exhaust, but that's just personal taste - and it's not my bike either. I decided I was going to get an 1100 Shadow next spring, now I know which one.
I might add that Honda really styled this right. It looks better and sleeker than comparable Harleys. I have one and must say the build quality isn't quite what Harley does, but then you're not paying Harley money for one. I bought mine last week for $3200. It has a Corbin solo saddle, Viking Leather hard bags, Memphis Shades Slim windshield, and Cobra engine guards. It's a reliable, inexpensive way to get into motorcycling.
Sweet. I have the 99 C3 in the same color combo and some Vance & Hines straight shot headers, still in the box. Now that I know how great they sound I might put them on it. Great video!
some people say that this is a wannabe harley, but i rather ride a wannabe harley, because i like to ride a bike, not taking it a part along the roadside al the time, and i sertainly don't feel the need to take a extra job , so that i can feed a harley dealer. Btw, great video. and for a change without music. so when you want clean hands, buy a honda, and when you want dirty hands, buy a harley. it's so simple sometimes.
@bauxi11 Bought a 1998 green/white VT1100 C3 Aero yesterday !!!!! Very good condition with only 9600 km Previuos owner installed completely new Vance&Hines Longshots 4 months ago.He has the same opinion like you regarding carb modification. So on my bike nothing has been modified with the carbs. Unfortunatley winter and snow here now , so only start ups can be made ! But sounds great ! The bike has a sissy bar....... this will be removed as soon as possible
@MCentusiast I didn't modify the carbs, I still use the original one. I also bought the jet kit, but didn't install it. Some people say that they reach a good rise of power with it in combination with an air filter from k&n. On the other hand I heard from customizer, that it is really tricky to adjust the jet kit and it doesn't bring anything, but maybe an increased fuel consumption. Better to buy a bike with bigger engine.
Ive pretty much only ever rode sport bikes but have been considering a bike like this.... Liked the Honda but the sound was so bad and quiet.... This I like thanks for the upload!!!
I honestly switched from a sports bike to a cruiser......ill never go back, as with the sound, you can put new pipes on it.........you will want atleast a 1100, I had a 700vt shadow previously and it just didnt have enough get up and go
@MCentusiast The C3 is a wonderful bike. I'm riding it since 3 years, I bought it with 1.000km. I just had problems with the battery and the charging regulator. But I think this was bad luck. No other problems, and I have now 17.000km on it. I wish you great rides with your new bike and all the best. Regards Bauxi
I used to own the model prior to this one and I can only say, I do f***ing miss that bike! Watching this makes me weep: the sound is just so perfect. Not too loud, not too soft but just right. It is so sad that the entire production of those masterpieces has now ended along with the entire infamous plant in Ohio being shut down for good. All Honda motorcycle productions have now been moved back to Japan....
Great bike. Seat is super comfy, great ride height (I'm 5'10") heavier than looks though. Absolutely no complaints other than this model has ridiculously expensive parts. White walls come standard too ;)
Yes, normally I have white wall tires too. They change the look completely. At the time when I recorded this video, the white wall version wasn't available for a long period of time.
I just love the VT1100 C3 ! Your bike looks very very nice and in top condition ! I am in the process buying a C3 from 1998 equipped with Vance&Hince longshots Have the C3 any weaknesses you know of ? Things to be checked before buying would be appreciated !
@xu9s Thank you. I can say, it is much much more than the stock version. But I wanted it louder and better sounding, because the stock version in Austria is so silent, that it is really more than embarrassing. It didn't make fun to ride with the stock exhaust. I bought it on ebay from the dealer gm cycles. I can really recommend him. I've put on the Vortex tips at the end. I didn't make any different settings. I also bought the jet kit, but didn't install it. Maybe I will for next year. Regards
Definitely the best sounding shadow ever. Much more better sound than my one with stock pipes. Do you have any problem with austrian police? New limits are very strict in Austria, I mean. Are you still under limit?
Jürgen Burgholzer Hello Jurgen, glad to hear it....I'm finally riden again and dont it feel great.Love my bike.Love the two tone color.As we say in Maine....ride safe.....Jim
hello Jurgen, great bike. i'm în love with this aero. i'm curios whats is it near the headlight- the chrome ornament on the left and right of the headlight. it gives the front end of the bike a verry nice look.
Hallo Jürgen! Vielen Dank für deine rasche Antwort. Auch wenn die Nachricht nicht positiv ist, du hast mir sehr geholfen. Ich suche schon wie verrückt nach Antworten im Netz. Da und dort habe ich gelesen, dass ich natürlich bei einer TÜV Zulassungsstelle die H & V Anlage testen lassen kann, und die dort entscheiden ob sie zugelassen wird. Ehrlich gesagt, habe ich keine Angst vor Polizeikontrollen, vielmehr geht es mir darum, ob ich dann jedes Jahr bei meiner Honda Werkstatt ein Pickerl bekomme, wenn die Anlage nicht im Typenschein vermerkt ist. Wie ist das bei dir, in Wien sind die Fachwerkstätte streng, und unter uns, ich will so ein schönes Bike nicht in irgendeiner Hinterhofwerkstatt zum Pickerl bringen. Meine ist grün/weiß. Ich bin unglaublich zufrieden und jeder der a bissl Ahnung hat, weiß ein HONDA Motor ist das Beste vom Besten. Die längere Variante von H & V habe ich auch schon gesehen, kann man alles bestellen aus Deutschland oder direkt aus den U.S.A aber alles ohne TÜV. Ich muss dir sagen, ich finde das ganz übel, es geht doch hier nicht um PS, wir haben keine Rennmaschinen und gefährden auch nicht andere Verkehrsteilnehmer nur weil wir eine etwas schöner klingende, brummender Auspuffanlage haben, und dann solche Schickanen. Trotzdem vielen Dank und viel Spaß mit deinem schönen Bike
looking to trick mine out a little bit I would like to go 21 inch rim on the front and stay stock on the rear I also would like a bat wing so I can put some music on the front and I like the look I have the clear and chrome one I took off will sell 200
Sucking air at Idle replace the stock air box with K&N also sucking air at cruising speeds. That mini backfire and bubble sound! If that doesn,t cure it you'll have to rejet the carbs.
Thanks for the nice reply ! If there are V&H longshots installed must the carbs be modified ? The bike that I am interested in has V&H longshots but not modified carbs
Aftermarket exhaust aside, Honda was clearly trying to mimic the "potato potato" sound Harleys are known for. 45 degrees, single crankpin and all that. Though in Honda's case they opted for an overhead cam design as you can rev it higher than on a pushrod engine.
Hello, Very nice scoot!! looks lean and mean! I also have a Aero 98 Black and Wine! Take frogman up on visiting the Aero site: Nothing but great folks and great info!!! Im digging the Jacket! what brand? Keep riding!! Gman!
Hallo Jürgen. Bin glücklicherweise auf deine Videos gestoßen. Würde dich gerne um Hilfe bitten. Wir haben den selben Geschmack, wie´s aussieht. Habe vor kurzem auch eine Honda Aero C3 erstanden, und würde mir gerne dieselbe V & H Auspuffanlage zulegen, wie du sie hast. Auf der Suche danach könnte ich verrückt werden, egal ob auf amerikanischen Webseiten oder deutschen, ich finde keine mit TÜV für Österreich. Deshalb meine Frage, hast du die Anlage typisiert? Wenn ja, welche Probleme ergeben sich dabei? Soweit ich weiß, gibt es für Honda Aero C3 nur dieses eine Modell H & V, aber eben keines mit Zulassung für Österreich. Kannst du mir dabei helfen.

Hi, I have always owned a crotch rocket now that I'm getting a little older I'm looking for something more my age. I found a great deal on this same exact bike and I'm contemplating on buying it. I think its beautiful but have never ridden anything like it. If anyone has any experience with shadow's please give me some insight, I would love to hear you'r input on these type of bikes.
Nafir Alvarez I have a 98 VT1100 AERO and love it. It's a long bike and won't even fit my 8 foot trailer. I have rode 500+ miles in one day with no problems. If you can get a good buy grab it. I bought mine just after hand surgery. I couldn't even ride but wanted the style. It's a fun bike and a real head turner.
Shadows are really good bikes, very well built and fully reliable. And they have character, in contrast to most other metric cruisers. But what belongs to this type of bikes, better try it if you like it. I love it, others hate it. Mostly there is nothing between.
+Nafir Alvarez Ive owened Harleys Crotch rockets triumphs etc... My Honda 1100 Shadow Spirit is the best one out of all of them. Not the fastest but the most comfortable and reliable. My 1100 V65 Magna was a close second.
+Jürgen Burgholzer, thank you for the response. The bike is beautiful, I hope you're lucky enough to still have it. I'm deciding whether to install them on my bike. It sure is beautiful where you are. Everything out here in west Texas is brown. lol if you still have it, have you done any more upgrades to it? If so, I'd sure like to see them. I wish I could post a picture on here. Thank you, sir.
+Dragonuv2002 Thank you. Yes I still have it. But hadn't enjoyed it the last year. Too much work. I have to make some decisions now, because otherwise I will end up in a burnout in a few days. But I'd never sell my Bike. Meanwhile I also changed the handlebar and I have white wall tires on it. This is a completely new ride and also changed the look and the lines of the bike dramatically. Please send me a message. I really like to see your bike.
I'm 6'2 and about 190 pounds. I have driven a 2004 ninja 250r for about 2 months. I want a VT1100. Would this be a mistake if I got one or should I get something smaller? After about 3 weeks of riding my Ninja I did ride it around the block and what not so i'm confident in my riding abilities. I have found some VT1100's for sale for about 1,500 dollars and about 20k miles on them. The 250 just isn't big enough for my big ass LOL...
The VT1100 is OK for your size and weight. It is easy to handle despite the heavy weight of the bike of 660 pounds. Whatever your ninja should be easier to handle. It's a great feeling to ride the shadow, but it is at your descretion.
For the driver it is very comfortable. For me it's possible to ride longer turns with the Stinger seat then with the original one. But it's a single seat. The passenger seat place (which is none) only works for a few minutes.
What year is this bike? And also, I'm a beginner rider. And I was looking at the 1998 Honda VT 1100 C3 Shadow Aero to possibly be my first. I'm a little short though. 5'5 and about 170 pounds. Would you recommend this bike?
Rick Canson The bike is 2001. I'm 5"9 and 158 Pounds and the bike is very easy to handle for me. You don't realize the real weight of the bike. I really can recommend it. Sure, a Harley sportster or similar is easier to handle, but it feels like a Moped for me.
Jose Augusto Silva You can see technical information here: www.bikez.com/motorcycles/honda_vt_1100_c3_shadow_1999.php For the actual market price I have no Information. But don't only look for the price, better look at the condition. You can find models which look like they are new (like mine). And you can find models you better a scrap.
Servus, Jürgen, ich hatte dich schon vor einer Ewigkeit angeschrieben, bezüglich der Vance&Hines-Anlagen, damals hast du mir geschrieben, dass du die Sitzbank verkaufen würdest. Besteht das Angebot noch, wenn ja, was würdest du verlangen. Vielleicht könnten wir per E-Mail Kontakt aufnehmen, will hier nicht vor der ganzen Welt;) rumdiskutieren. Danke im Voraus
Smokeey i got a 2001 vt1100c spirit as my first bike and love it. But it’s a big so make sure it fits your size. But from all the research I’ve done, the Honda is a great bike, reliable and fun.
Jürgen Burgholzer Ist dieser Auspuff legal? Ich kann nicht sagen sie laut er in echt ist. Außerdem bin ich noch nie Chopper gefahren (bis jetzt Sport Maschinen), interessiere mich aber sehr für die Shadow und frage mich immer schon ob alle Chopper illegal unterwegs sind oder ob der typische Sound da gestattet ist. Und falls nicht erlaubt: schon mal Probleme damit gehabt?
One of the best sounding I have heard. I like the Stinger seat, too.
Thx Bryan
I'm going tomorrow with my father to look at my first motorcycle. A 1995 Shadow 1100 A.C.E with the white and purple paint job.
So freakin excited!
Great! Wish you that the bike is in the condition you want it to be. Enjoy it!
@@bauxi11 The bike was great! It ran really smooth, pretty good shape considering its age. And it came with a bike cover! I bought it for $1,500 :)
@@Snail2G Congratulations. Great price too. Should have tremendous value. In Europe it’s 3-5x that price.
I want one,I don t care about HD,I ve loved Hondas all my life,but only now will I buy my first...so excited.
I'm happy for you! Enjoy your bike!

Wrong. His 1100 Aero most certainly does have a single crank pin.
I don't know exactly. I guess about 170 km/h.
Jürgen Burgholzer Ist dieser Auspuff legal? Ich kann nicht sagen sie laut er in echt ist.
Außerdem bin ich noch nie Chopper gefahren (bis jetzt Sport Maschinen), interessiere mich aber sehr für die Shadow und frage mich immer schon ob alle Chopper illegal unterwegs sind oder ob der typische Sound da gestattet ist.
Und falls nicht erlaubt: schon mal Probleme damit gehabt?
Jürgen Burgholzer Danke und Lg!
