Hi all, Finally bit the bullet and purchased my first bike, a 2007 Honda Shadow VT750! The bike's in pretty good condition overall, with 13750 miles on the odo and no signs of any crashes or poor maintenance, which I'm pretty enthusiastic about. However, seemingly at random when I'm riding it...

Hey, all. I have the 09 Shadow VT750 C2. I’ve been running into some problems with the weather getting colder. I’ll start the bike cold with the coke pulled. It’ll fire up and idle pretty good for maybe 30 seconds, but after that the bike will then die and refuses to start again. It’s a new...

Newly acquired 2000 honda shadow 600 single carb. I took the carb out to clean and then reassembled but now I am not getting fuel to the bowl. I have verified that fuel is getting to the carb port but is not filling the bowl. I've also removed the auto fuel petcock and ran a line from tank to...

So I’m looking for some advice on how to fix my bike. The issue I’m having is it seems like the bike is trying to stall or is starving at 70+ mph I do have after market exhaust on my bike ( Vance and Hines short shots). Things I have done or tried is changed plugs, replaced bowl gaskets on...

Currently I've got 3/8 fuel lines from tank to pump, and pump to brass T. Then it turns into a 1/4 sized fuel line. I've had some problems with what feels like fuel delivery when I open up full throttle. I'm wondering if switching the line from pump to brass T to a 1/4 instead of 3/8 would...

So I've been working on my 02 shadow 1100 for a few years. Everything is all set to be road ready. All but one issue. Fuel delivery. Today I pulled the carbs and cleaned them again only to notice there still isn't fuel coming to the carbs. I removed the fuel pump and gravity fed the fuel into...

I have a 1999 Honda Shadow Spirit 1100 The other day I had just left home to go to work and my bike died all of a sudden down the street. After about 10 minutes it started and ran long enough on choke to get it back home. First thought was the carbs. Wrong. After work it started up and ran...

S the previous owner installed a aftermarket universal fuel pump. Not sure if it was because they boared the engine out or if they didn't want to pay for the oem stock pump. But does anyone know what psi the fuel should be at for this bike? It is a 2007 shadow spirit 1100c Originally, but like I...

I have an 85 Honda Shadow 700. Just bought it from a guy. Put new fuel pump and filter on because that’s what it needed he said. Having small battery issue (just not keeping charge) but it was riding well for an hour or so but now everytime I engage throttle bike sputters real bad and sometimes...

Hi all I have a 2000 Honda shadow Sabre and I'm replacing all fuel lines. I noticed some have plastic over the line is this necessary? Whats the purpose and can I just replace these with regular old fuel line?

Hello all new to the forum, I bought a 2000 Shadow Spirit VT1100C last year on love it. I got it from a Honda dealership and they went through it and rebuilt the carb. My question is I am getting about 60 miles before I have to go the reserve. I feel I should be getting a little more mileage...

Hey guys, I hope you all are well. I have seen many threads on HOW to replace the fuel filter, but have been unable to find any on what actual filter model to use. I currently ride a 2003 Honda Shadow Ace 750cc. At times when accelerating, I find that my throttle briefly "skips a beat" as...

I just purchased a 1998 honda shadow 1100 with 25k on it about a week ago. The bike ran excellent the whole time until today, I started it up this morning to go for a ride and made it about 2 miles down the road when it stalled out rolling up to a red light. The bike started back up immediately...

If you guys can help me solve the puzzle... I have a 1997 Honda Shadow 1100 ACE, rode it up and down the street, backfired, started losing power, then turned off. The bike wouldn't start up back up. After the matter, I put in a new AGM battery, Installed iridium spark plugs, cleaned carbs...

Just picked up a 1985 Honda 700 that was running when I got it but you had to manually pulsate the fuel pump to be able to rev it up. I also believe it needs a starter solenoid because the push button doesent work but starter works fine when you jump the relay. I let the bike sit outside for 4...

Hello, I have a 1999 Honda Vt1100c3 with everything stock but the exhaust. It's been very well taken care of before me by a master motorcycle tech who owned it. This bike has a little over 60,000 miles on it (I put 6,000 on it last year). Lately when I ride, she starts and runs just fine, maybe...
