Up for sale is my 2005 Honda Shadow VLX Deluxe. The bike comes with plenty of extras, a clean Kansas title, and more than enough chrome to turn heads!
The bike is in excellent condition, and is a strong runner. It never cranks for more than a second without starting up.
In my opinion, this particular model of Shadow has the perfect balance between power and fuel economy. I have gotten 65+ mpg out of it before. It will do highway speed all day long.
To top it off, the bike has brilliant chrome just about everywhere you look! The Candy Orange finish has the look of a custom job.
The bike has been well maintained. Last year, I had the rear tire replaced, changed the engine oil (full synthetic), replaced the spark plugs, replaced the battery, installed a new air filter, installed a new headlamp bulb, and kept up with all the rest of the maintenance per the owners manual.
This year, I maintained her through winter months, changed the engine oil and filter, had the front fork seals replaced, and flushed and cleaned the coolant system.
Here is a list of the extras:
- Viper Windshield
- Brilliant Chrome Engine Guards
- Passenger Backrest
- Chrome luggage rack
- Leather Saddle Bags
The bike comes with:
- Two keys
- Owners Manuel
- Tool Kit
- Motorcycle Cover
Thank you for taking a look! I would be happy to answer any questions or inquires by either phone or e-mail. My phone number is: seven-eight-five, 8-nine-3, three-six seventy-two.
Thanks,
Trey
