gonefishin said:The Honda Canada site is showing a 2007 VT750D Shadow Spirit with dual carbs and chain. Looks interesting since the chain drive provides an opportunity to shift the power curve a bit with a different sprocket and shorter chain - might help with any vibration problems. The dual carbs would be a bit peppier, I am thinking.
I am wondering if the clearance might be a bit higher than the Aero. Any comments on that angle? Would be good for my needs to have a bit more clearance.
Would be nice if they did something about the old technology brakes, though.
No I saw that but didn't realize one was being discontinued while the other was taking its place.mark v said:You are correct.
You also missed this page from the Honda Canada site.

AGREED! real motorcycles have a chain!trjam said:get the chain instead of the shaft while you can, you wont regret it.
Ya for sure, I got it in May/2006 as a clear out deal, sweet price. It wasn't any different than the 2006, just saved a lot of $$$$. These Spirits have got to be one of the best value for dollar out there and I think they modify nice,too.Nyiles said:I have the '06 model. To me, the '07s look nothing like the Spirit. It's more like an Aero with different fenders. I like the drag bars & chain drive on the older model. It looks more like a power cruiser.
I highly agree!wildwolf said:Of course, if you DO like the new Shadow Spirit 750, you should also consider the new Vulcan 900 Custom if you are looking for a new ride.
