Overview
The 2011 Honda Shadow Phantom VT750C2B is a cruiser from the Shadow family, produced for 2011. Its 745 cm³ liquid-cooled 52-degree V-twin uses SOHC pushrod valve actuation with three valves per cylinder, and the motorcycle weighs 249 kg.
A 655 mm seat gives a low perch that can make it easier to put both feet down. The 1,641 mm wheelbase and 249 kg weight call for deliberate handling at walking pace; the rear suspension has five-position preload adjustment to tailor it to the rider and load, with 3.5 inches of travel.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Shaft final drive
The shaft drive avoids the routine chain cleaning and adjustment required by a chain final drive.
Automatic fuel enrichment
PGM-FI with automatic enrichment handles the richer mixture needed for starting without a manual choke adjustment.
Adjustable rear preload
Five preload positions let the rider tune the rear suspension for different loads.
Things to consider
Heavy at low speed
At 249 kg, it takes more effort to maneuver in tight spaces and at walking pace.
Limited rear suspension travel
The rear suspension's 3.5 inches of travel can leave less room to absorb larger bumps than the front's 4.6 inches.
