Overview
The Honda Shadow Aero VT750CA ABS is a cruiser from the Shadow family, produced for 2011. Its 745 cm³ liquid-cooled 52-degree V-twin has SOHC pushrod operation and three valves per cylinder; the motorcycle weighs 251 kg.
A 658 mm seat height puts the seat low, while the 251 kg weight can take more effort to manage at walking speed. The shaft final drive avoids chain cleaning and adjustment. The 41 mm front fork has 4.6 inches of travel and the dual rear shocks have 3.5 inches, giving the suspension room to absorb bumps. ABS is fitted to the 296 mm front disc; the rear brake is a 180 mm drum.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Low seat
The 658 mm seat height makes it easier for many riders to get their feet down at a stop.
Shaft final drive
The shaft drive avoids routine chain cleaning and adjustment.
Front ABS
ABS on the front disc can help prevent the front wheel from locking during hard braking.
Things to consider
Heavy at low speed
At 251 kg, the bike can take more effort to maneuver in parking lots and at walking pace.
Rear drum brake
The 180 mm rear drum brake has no ABS, so anti-lock assistance is limited to the front.
