2013 Honda Shadow Spirit 750 C2.


                                   2013 Honda Shadow Spirit 750 C2.

The Honda Shadow Spirit 750 is a sporty, competent V-twin classic cruiser motorcycle, with a great dragbike vibe. The Shadow Spirit 750 C2 has had a huge fan base for more than 20 years, and its reputation is well-deserved. Its classic good looks and unforgettable rumble are sure to attract attention. This is a reliable, powerful middleweight that you’ll love from the first turn of the ignition key.

The Honda Shadow Spirit 750 VT750C2 is powered by a 745cc, liquid-cooled, 52-degree V-twin engine which is kept in check by a wide-ratio five-speed transmission. The engine offers a perfect balance between sportiness and efficiency, rewarding you with a fuel consumption of 56 miles per gallon.

With a curb weight of 556 lbs, it is lighter than the norm: the average 2013 cruiser motorcycle has a curb weight of 657 lbs. The 3.70-gallon fuel capacity could be better for longer trips.

The clutch is light and reliable, and the five-speed transmission offers smooth gear shifts. The 26.6”-high seat allows most riders to put both feet flat on the pavement at lights, and the 3.6-gallon fuel tank makes this a great motorcycle for longer excursions.

The 2013 Shadow Spirit 750 C2 ABS has a starting MSRP of $9,240, a reasonable price to pay for a member of the class of 2013 cruiser motorcycles (the average price is $13,240).
