I have a 2006 Honda 750 Shadow Spirit that has been a Great Bike--never been in the shop for any malfunctions--this is my 5th Honda Product and all of them have been very dependable...
I sat on one of these at a dealership years ago. Probably 2009 - 2011. It made me think Honda needed to push this design into a dirt track competitor. Give the venerable HD XR750 a run for its money and the Indian FTR750.
Here in England I have a VT750 C2, I moved my footpegs to the same position as the 'S' as it is called here. But I also put a Harley rear wheel in the front..! It's great reliable bike made of decent metal... unlike some Harleys ... Oh, and I've owned some Harleys...
Your are 100 percent right daddy warbucks. My honda rebel 250 will start on a 30 percent battery charge. All these buck Rogers bikes with the Key fob a push button start once that key fob is lost good luck getting around the pc. And how long will those electronic circuits last? I rebuilt my Honda Rebel custom bobber from the ground up and restored alot of parts, you can't do that with these new bikes.
Awesome paint scheme. It'll make a great bike for someone with the right riding profile. My biggest issue with that bike is the range--I'd have to fill up every day.
I live in the same county as you and on November 27th all the leaves on my trees where off and it was cold with grey skys? I am totally convinced this video is from a alternate Universe and this guy might be a alien.
I am trying to buy one of these for 2750. It's a 2011 with 9k miles on it. I am excited to get it. It's the exact same color, looks identical to the one I'm gonna buy.
So it’s the same frame except for the fork neck? You said the rake was different, that would require the frame to be different wouldn’t it? I’m asking because I’d rather clone one than try finding one
Lol , what's a normal shadow . ACE Aero Spirit Phantom vlx RS , and I'm probably missing some designations . Nice vid , I wish my aero had that color and I am not color particular .
@@crabhab I'm tellin ya, man, that bike is a friggin missile. The engine is so unstressed and yet the torque is insane. if they would put better components on that bike (Better brakes, better front forks and shock) it would be damned near unbeatable. And keep it fully faired, not that half-fairing the other Bandits had.
Dennis M it is a torque monster for sure. I bought mine second hand from a local dealer who had put a yoshimura slip on without a tune so I bought a dale walker tuning kit with K&N filter and it is insane. Probably around 120-125 at the rear wheel and 95-100 lb/ft of torque
I am forced to count the vast number of; "All-American", filler-words; "Awesome" used, and my brain starts to explode! It destroys any sensible interest in the video! I love all the Honda Shadows, but the use of the dreaded word; "*******" makes my finger hover over the; "Delete" Icon!......Stop doing it!...😉...😉...😉...!
The RS was a 'dog'...good low end torque but no top end at all...you were lucky to get to 90mph (with a 200lb rider). Top heavy, terrible to ride thru the curves-it is a straight road bike.

I love the super short yet tasteful intro

For me it's the Honda VTX 1300S I have put 166,000 miles on it with only needing normal service or repair. Any Honda is the way to go.
You may have convinced me to get a Shadow RS as my 5th Honda. Wish I could find this beautiful factory paint though!
I really love this bike.I can't stop watching this video.....over and over and over and over again.

In my humble opinion, the Shadow is the all time best bike Honda ever built or builds. Simple but excellent.
This is a very nice modern classic!
Honda makes incredible machines and I ride a hd...
I'm thinking about buying one of these ones, seems more reliable than any Bonneville, royal Enfield or guzzi.
Sean you said "Awesome" 11 times. 😅 Watched it again just to count. That might be a record. Must truly be an awesome bike!

I love that bike, my first bike was a 1998 Honda Shadow 750 ACE.
Still a beautiful looking bike. Wish I could ride again.🙁
Nice. If this was today. I’d buy it. Took a 1100 1997 Shadow for a ride. Too moch for me.
Honda marketed the RS as a street tracker.
That's a cool looking bike, I can't believe it hasn't sold yet. Didn't you get that one a while ago?
I believe he is asking around 3k and the market doesn't want to yield that when you can get a low mile ace or aero for 1.5

Is it fuel injected?
Did you re-release this video? I’ve seen this before. Hmmm...
reminds me of the old night hawks
Isn’t this the same video from 2 months ago? Did you get another RS!?
Those are excellent
How much did you pay for it, I'm paying 2750$ for mine and I wanna know if I got a good deal. It's the same color, year, and has 9k miles.
They're selling one for $4,999 with 1,900 mileage is that a good price?
Is this engine what honda built the flattrack 750 from? Also called the rs750....from Wyoming USA 🔫🤠🇺🇸p.s stay safe
I want one for my son's 1st bike.
I like 1960 honda tornado cafe racer 250cc with beefy tires better!
Like riding an old British bike
Take a shot every time Sean says "Awesome"
Only thing I'm not looking forward to is, no rpm guage, no fuel gauge, etc
He did not start it ;-;
It’s fuel injection will system probably kill it off before it get its 50th birthday
Is it the longest lasting bike? Nope. My 2011 Suzuki GSX1250FA is. Period.
Dennis M I love my 2011 GSX1250FA. I wish Suzuki would bring it back to the US market

good looking bike but its a turd for power
