The perfect machine for young and old alike, the Honda VT600 Shadow is an easy bike to ride. Its low 690mm seat height works perfectly for even the shortest of riders and its sweet 54bhp V-Twin is more than enough to bring plenty of smiles.
The torquey power-unit was borrowed from the indestructible Transalp, Honda fitting it into a low-build frame with a gentle 35 degree rake for the front forks making it a doddle to ride.
This immaculate machine has been dry stored and barely used since it left the factory in 1999. Its most recent MOT expired in September of last year, the odometer having taken nearly 16 years to creep around to the indicated 1,750 miles. Barely run in, it’s high time it got proper use and if you are looking for an easy to ride machine with complete reliability, a big V-Twin sound-track and haven’t got Harley-sized pockets, this looks like the perfect choice.
