DRL running lights. Help needed. Does the DRL share the same fuse as the blinkers? Backstory I added LED lights to the front and back. Did the front forks/blinkers first. Added relay/diodes to fix fast blinking. Everything worked fine including the white running lights on the new blinkers...

Time to part ways with my '86 VT1100C. I've owned it since 1994. It's been garage kept most of that time, but not all. Even been under cover when outdoors during business hours when I drove it to work. As you can see from the photos, it's in good physical condtion for a 35 year old bike. The...

I was wondering if a vt600 and a vt750 had the same passenger foot pegs? They look the same but wanted to make sure they’re the same before purchasing. Thank you.

Hello everyone, I have a 1993 vt600 that I cannot solve for the life of me. I'm having this issue where I cannot get the bike to rev out in every gear. I installed a tachometer to verify the RPM at which this is happening and its pretty consistently limited to 4500. it almost sounds like it...

2015 Honda Shadow Phantom, 8k miles My first cruiser bike and the first bike I've owned/ridden in the past 10 years. So I'm very rusty, technically and mechanically speaking. I just got the bike a week ago. Been riding it with no problems. I increased the rear suspension preload 2 clicks...

So I recently bought an 83 Shadow VT500. It was running absolutely perfectly up until yesterday. I took of the gas tank in order to paint it. I then put it back on, started it up, let it idle for a bit. But when i took it to the road it stalled after 3 minutes. It then wouldn’t start back but...

Hi, let me introduce myself my name is Harry and I’m new to the Forum. I have a 2008 VT750C2 Honda Shadow Spirit I’m having issues with, I change the oil and went to start it to cycle the oil through the bike and realized I left the dip stick out so it started spraying oil through the dip stick...

I have 84 honda shadow , been working on it for months now( between having the time and the $$) now I'm hoping the last problem is the stator and the R/R... would it be stupid to look for used parts..? And just order gaskets new... I really just want to be able to jump on the bike and hit...

My headache.. I meant bike needs stator , R/R , as well as the 2 gaskets and seal to hopefully run (decent) can anyone recommend a site/ store that mails parts in Canada..?

Hi everyone. This is my first post here, and it will definitely be a doozy. I have a 98' ACE 750 that I bought with basket case carbs. Not a problem for me, as I am very familiar with Honda carbs (I got very familiar with them from my V65 Magna.) Well, of course I had no problems cleaning and...

I Just bought the bike not long ago, but I noticed when I rode it home from the dealer the throttle response seemed a bit off. Like if I got on the throttle hard it would be a 1 sec delay then accelerate and not much as I feel it should be, it seems Boggy or struggles to accelerate. few days...

Hey all! First bike, first post. Got a 2006 Honda Shadow VT750DC (dual carb), 5700 miles. I cant get the bike to run. Symptoms: It will start on full choke but then die out after 30 seconds or so, if I set it to ½ choke after 30 seconds it will run an additional 10-15 seconds then die. It...

Hello everyone, Just purchased a 1983 Honda VT500 in Rapid City South Dakota. Pretty excited to start this journey of restoration and daily riding(as long as I can in this state). A bit about my bike history this is my third bike that I have owned through out the years. I was looking at getting...

Want to replace the stock exhaust on my 2002 Spirit VT1100. Prefer the look of short shots in black but haven't been able to find anything. There are only a couple options from the big brands that I can see and they are chrome which is not my style and long which also isn't to my liking. Anybody...

Purchased a 2001 Honda Shadow Sabre VT1100C2 as a 'project' bike. Front cylinders were not firing, so, I switched the coils and then the back cylinders were not firing. Thought it was a bad coil, so, purchased and new coil and installed and the back cylinders are still not firing. Is this a...

So my old mechanic whom I've known for years now builds bobbers. I have this little 125 custom he wants. He needs 1800 priced to move on the bobber which I am sure he salvaged for nothing and spent a week on IF that this guy is a mechanical genius. So deal is I give up the red bike right, and...
