  • Honda VT1100 Shadow Spirit

    I wonder if anyone knows anything (good or bad) about this bike. I am looking at a 1985 model that has an alleged fuel system issue not allowing it to start. What would be the value of a bike in this condition?


    Thanks, MP

    Easy to maintain bikes, but they sucked at high speed from vibration. Look at Viragos instead instead.

      Does that bike have a fuel pump? I seem to remember that being an issue on a friend of mine's wife's bike. Hers was a Honda Cruiser from the mid 80's. Hers had a remote fuel tank too IIRC.

        I believe it does. and I think that is possibly a problem with this one now.
