LOWERED $ - Priced to sellREADY FOR THE ROAD!! *** Low mileage 2006 Honda Shadow Spirit*** VT750DC, Spirit 750 You're looking at a 2006 Honda Shadow Spirit 750cc. This is not a stock bike. Many upgrades and much more! I'm moving soon and have to part ways with all of my toys. This is the best bang for the buck you will find in a drop dead reliable middleweight cruiser. The performance and accessories give this bike a custom look at an affordable price. Adaptability In some ways this bike is a Chameleon. Both the seatback/luggage rack and windshields are quick release. You can go from a stripped look with all removed to a 2up windshield and backrest in 1 minute. Do a web search for 'Paladin back rest' and 'National Switchblade windshield' for more information. Ride-ability If you're not familiar with the differences in models for Honda Shadow Spirits, there are shaft drive and chain drive. While you may think that chain drive is antiquated, you'd be wrong. Chain drive allows you to customize the gear ratio which in the case of this bike makes a dramatic difference in ride feel, RPMs at speed across the gear range. This is a 5 speed bike with lower ratios at stock. Changing the rear sprocket has made a world of difference at cruising speed. I went from a 41 to 37tooth steel rear sprocket. Prior to the change, it was 'revvy' at 25-35 mph local streets in 2nd and a bit even in 3rd, now the smooth low grumble of a proper V-Twin. At highway speeds, the whine of those revs is gone all the way up to 85mph which is probably as fast as you'd want to go on a middleweight cruiser. Safety/Sound Speaking of whine, many metric cruisers have a whiney exhaust note. The Vance & Hines Cruzer pipes improve the look as well as have a balance between loudness at open throttle to let drivers know you're there, but subdued low grumble at cruise. I left the baffles in and like this balance. Others have removed the baffles, which is up to you, but too obnoxious for me. Some Harley riders I've ridden with have said it sounded close to a Harley and larger than a 750cc. Performance Couple this with the Thunder Manufacturing Stage 3 Jet kit, this ride has extra horsepower to go. From Thunder Mfg., "We spent countless hours on the Dyno to ensure you the best jet kits possible. Thunder Mfg. jet kits are stage 3 kits designed to work with our air kits. " I have the matching tuned air kit so you're good to go! While I haven't put it on a dyno, there was a BIG difference in acceleration and power with little difference in fuel economy. That power is there when you need it, just rip the throttle. Reliability This machine has not had one problem. Period. Hondas are known to be bulletproof. If you'd rather be on the road than in the shop and have money in your wallet and not your mechanics or in the bank versus more expensive cruisers, you've found the best middleweight on ebay in NY Metro.

Makes it feel like a 6 speed.
