Create Your Own Destination

If you're looking for a motorcycle with that classic cruiser look and the best modern engineering, narrow your search to the Honda Shadow Aero. The V-twin engine puts out loads of torque, with a throaty dual exhaust note that'll cause double-takes on every street corner. The comfort lasts all day, or all weekend, thanks to the low-slung seat, pullback handlebars and forward-set pegs. And with a low-maintenance shaft drive, the Shadow Aero is the textbook cruiser that's anything but average.

Performance Features

V-Twin Engine: Nothing pumps out the torque like a big V-twin. The Aero's power makes it perfect for around-town cruising, commutes and casual weekend-long rides.
Three-Valve Dual-Plug Combustion Chamber: It's the best of both worlds: The three-valve combustion chambers used on many of our V-twin cruisers feature two intake valves and one exhaust, helping them breathe efficiently to boost both horsepower and torque.
Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI): Forget about fiddling with a choke—the Shadow's fuel injection system means no-hassle startups on cold mornings or at high altitudes, and optimal performance in any condition.

Style Features

2-Into-2 Exhaust System: Sleek pipes feature bullet-style mufflers for that classic cruiser style of yesteryear. Large-diameter head pipes and the 2-into-2 system design combine to put out true, V-twin cruiser sound.
Tank-Mounted Instruments: A key element of the Shadow Aero's look are the tank-mounted instruments. Set in a gorgeous chromed pod and complemented by the chromed fuel-filler cap, they really set off the bike's classic lines.
Blacked-Out Styling: The closer you look at a Shadow Aero, the better it looks. That's because the styling is so unified. Check out the way the blacked-out engine, black rims, black frame and black seat all hang together.
Chrome Highlights: Chrome highlights include cylinder-head covers, air-cleaner cover, engine sidecovers, brake and clutch-lever brackets, rear brake pedal, shift lever, handlebar, rear shock covers and more.
Full Front Fender: Wide metal front fender gives the Aero a classic styling touch.
Spoked Wheels: Spoked wheels give the Aero a classic look.

Comfort Features

Comfortable Saddle: Broad, low-slung solo seat features a detachable passenger seat.
Low Seat Height: The Aero's low seat height makes flat-footing it at stoplights or in parking lots a breeze. And the Aero's narrow seat/tank junction makes it feel even lower.

Drivetrain Features

Five-Speed Transmission: Wide-ratio five-speed transmission lets you cruise the boulevard at a low, unhurried pace, yet allows you to hop on the highway without revving the engine through the roof.
Shaft Final Drive: Clean, efficient, proven, and low maintenance. Shaft final drive is the perfect choice for a machine like this, and for riders who pile on the miles. You never have to worry about lubrication or adjustment out on the road. And an added plus: it helps keep your bike cleaner, too.
