    So I've completely gone and turned the bike upside down and converted it into a really nice bobber (1985 VT750C). Unfortunatley im having a nightmare of a time getting her to run right. I've got pod filters on it and the exhaust straight piped. I have shimmed the needles with 2 shims and have my...

    I picked this beauty (2016) up past weekend to replace my 1996 Magna. I started riding about 5 years ago and bought the Magna as my bike to learn. Magna was a wonderful beast but given the age, I spend fair amount of time repairing it rather than driving. I wanted something similar so went...

    Was given a 2004 Honda Shadow VT750C and it has been sitting for the past couple years, had been started up every now and then and was consistently added fuel stabilizer to it. Wondering if there is anything else in getting it running again and tuned up. So far I have or am going to: - New...

  6. From Stock to Not (except it's the opposite of bobbing)

    Bought Pearl from an Air Force buddy as my first ever cruiser and motorcycle as an "adult" (newly married, in college, post military). Always been around my family's 1100 Sabres and loved them. Wife didn't approve at first (could have been because I bought it without telling her, but who can...

    I have a 2020 Shadow Aero, and apparently Honda discontinued their OEM sissy bars... Any ideas on an aftermarket bracket, bar, and backrest that will fit the existing grab rail bolts on a BT750C?

    Calling all Shadow enthusiast, I recently purchased a 86 shadow 700c. This is my first project bike. I purchased the bike in NOT running condition. The Carb was pulled from the previous owner and everything with it (Great :rolleyes:). Excited to get to work. Through trial and error she’s...

    I've been working on a honda shadow i bought that wasn't running. I've replaced spark plugs, several hoses, and installed a brand new fuel pump. I've managed to get it kind of running.

    This morning while putting my bike cover on, I noticed a hose dangling from underneath my seat. I didn't have the time to follow it and see where it went to but, one thing I know for sure is there was no smell of fuel or wetness of any kind on the hose. I'm just curious of how many hoses are in...

    I started taking my project bike apart and noticed that the head gasket was blown. Evidently, it has been blown for a long time. The top of the piston and the cylinder bore are covered in rust. Also, it looks like the intake valve struck the piston. I've been looking for oversize pistons...

    Hey guys! Noob here. I have a 98 shadow vt750 ace. I need a replacement crankcase/clutch cover, the one I have has a hole in it. I'm having a horrible time finding one online.

It seems difficult to find a shop manual for the NV750 (my one has the RC14E engine) I have been referring to the '83 VT750C Manual which I have figured is as close as I can find. I am still struggling with a couple of things... after taking...

    I’ve got an ‘83 750 I’m trying to get running, and I’m stuck on getting it to fire. The battery has to be recharged after every starting attempt session I do, but it does have spark on all plugs. The plugs are wet upon examination and I even shot a little fuel through the carbs to encourage it...
