About the Honda VT 750
The Honda VT750 Shadow is a mid-size V-twin cruiser powered by a water-cooled 52° V-twin of 745 cc, produced in multiple variants from 1983 through the 2010s. The best-known versions are the VT750C Shadow (classic style with teardrop tank) and VT750S Shadow (sportier naked-cruiser style). The water-cooled engine copes better with extended city riding than older air-cooled V-twins. A low seating position and smooth power delivery make it approachable.
The VT750 Shadow targets riders who want American-style cruiser looks without the weight of a large Harley or Honda Goldwing. The low seat height of around 700 mm is an advantage for shorter riders. Reliable and low-maintenance thanks to hydraulic valve adjustment. Competes with the Yamaha XVS750 and Kawasaki VN750. A popular choice for first-time cruiser riders due to its forgiving character.

What to check before buying
- Check the cooling system for leaks at the water pump and radiator; in city riding the cooling fan may engage frequently.
- Inspect the fuel tank internally for rust on long-stored bikes; rust particles can block the injection system or carburettor.
- Check battery capacity; the VT750 draws more current than lighter bikes due to dual ignition coils and accessories.
- Look for steering head bearing wear on high-mileage examples, particularly on bikes ridden over rough surfaces.
- Check rear tyre pressure and wear; wide rear tyres wear quickly when the bike is ridden with abrupt throttle inputs.
