Bike Profile

Get a high from being low. The Honda Shadow Spirit is a low-down dirty scoundrel that will make your own spirits soar. The powerful v-twin 1099cc power plant gives you rocket like energy while the deep, plush comfortable seat and upright position lets you enjoy the ride. The 25.9 inch seat is a perfect height that will allow any sized rider plant their feet and feel secure.

There's nothing insecure about the way this bike handles on the road. It leans comfortably into turns and can keep up with anybody on the straight. There is a lot of power in this bike that could leave some beginners feeling a bit unstable. It takes some nerve to handle about 58 horses all galloping at full steam underneath you. The bike has a blast off and needs to be handled with care by novice riders but it is definitely handlable for any skill level.

A nine-plate clutch makes shifting seamless and easy and maintenance with the Spirit like most any of the great Hondas is negligible. You won't have to worry about constantly tweaking and fiddling with this bike before you head out to enjoy what a bike was meant to do—run.

Advantages: Great power, fast, comfortable.

Disadvantages: The relatively large front wheel (for the low position of this bike) cuts real close to chopper styling and can feel a bit floppy at lower speeds. Smoothness deteriorates a bit over 80 mph.
