What’s a good buy

It might have helped to lube hoses so they'd slide on easier.

Simply replace the hose on the other side with a longer piece!

Are these the original handlebars?

So, I just completed the MSF course, got my endorsement. I also bought a 2004 shadow 750. It's in my garage and i'm a little intimidated by the weight. Is it going to be harder than riding those 250's at the msf? I have to practice on my street, can't get to an empty lot. Do i just get on it and go or is there something i more i need to know about this heavier bike?

Keep it for you and your dad's sake , I have one just like it and it is my favorite of my three, Even though it's just a six.

Praying for you! It is a very tough road to go down buddy! I’m here if you need to talk! Y’all are like family to me!

Hey bud I got you if you ever need help

I have a 2004 V6,and the electric windows have been a headache..The guide plates which are siliconed to the glass pop off.Its a common problem on the mustangs..I just recently replaced my headlights for the second time..I bought the smoke headlights from american muscle.Unfortunely they block out the light too much..I went to LEDS and now they are brighter..I had the same problem gettingt the bulbs i as you did.I had to leave out the round sleeve that pushes up against the back of the headlight fixture.I used the old retainer off an older fixture..Im worried about it leaking now.On the drivers side i was able to get the sleeve on.

No more Honda Shadow videos for us 🙁

Nice motorcycle my friend

Very helpful

I have a proble with the volume can you tell me what am doing wrong

Where did you get the elbow at please?

Going by pic of what bike use to look like, that's not a Spirit. I have a 03 Spirit 750, if u look them up, the rear fender is smaller, not as large as pic shown of what bike use to look like.

I bought one, and now I'm just finding videos all over youtube of people having problems with them so much for a reputation for reliability

This motorcycle would of been so much better if it was a straight air cooled twin and lost the radiator, and added or kept the fuel injection. They didn't switch to fuel injection until the 2012 model... and there's very few used one of those out there to find for sale. I love my straight twin air cooled Hondas. I'm not even sure how you'd change the rear drum brakes on the shaft drive version. I would be like, WTF am I suppose to do to replace these? The gas tank is kind of an illusion, because there's a big airbox going up the center of it. Anyway, I wouldn't pay more than 2000 tops for this bog standard bike. Probably the worst thing about this bike is the rear foot pegs are located way up high, meaning as the driver you can't move your legs every now and then back and forth between the front and back pegs to keep from cramping. You're stuck with the front pegs and that's it. If your feet go looking for non existant rear pegs during a ride like mine being use to them being there, you're libel to hit dead air or worse hit the ground with your foot and run over your toe. In fact, I'd rather have my feet on some rear pegs once I get going on a long stretch and don't have to shift or brake. Makes it a lot easier to stand up when going over a bump too.

There's lot of folks that work on metric bikes... Honda and Harley-Davidson are neck and neck with 20% each of the market share for motorcycles in the US... Yamaha is 12%, Kawasaki is 12%, and Suzuki 7%... so metric bike make up over half of the market...

I bought Die Hard batteries many times for cars in the past, so I am glad I was also able to find one for my '12 Spirit. I find it easier to find the correct parts for vehicles by taking the old ones to the parts stores with me whenever possible. Even though I live in a desert environment and humidity here is low, I use battery connector spray to keep the connections from corroding.

Rock on bro! Thanks for documenting your journey im 40 and just bought my first bike.

Exact same bike owner here sounds like the pipes may be causeing deceleration afterfire you could try messing with the air fuel screw and or swap out the pilot jet just some pointers to keep her healthy!! Awesome looking ride man

Excellent video, thank you for being honest and open with your personal learning to ride experience. I started riding at the age of 49 in 2012. I now have over 125,000. I love riding and watch a lot of U2 videos. I even wrote a monthly column in a free motorcycle magazine for a while. My Honda is the third bike I have owned is in hibernation here in Buffalo from about mid November-to about Mid April. I hope to be a snow bird someday. Be safe and enjoy!! Go Bills!!!

That's a crankcase vent not the pcv hose or pcv valve. lets not spread misinformation.

Good job, bro! Awesome video!!..👊🏽

How did you clean the gunk and corrosion off of the engine compartment?

That's good that you bought the new battery

That very first C5 Corvette was mine 😂 I do like the 69 better too.

Hope you can get back to this. I just got a 03 Shadow Spirit a month ago (my 1st bike). Enjoyed this playlist!

That's what I'm talkin' bout

Great video Niel!! Really appreciate you summarizing our show. A lot of great cars came out yesterday in support of Metro Ministries and 1Voice Foundation. Spectators and participants were amazing, and our host Northpointe Village was gracious as always.

💯💯🙌

Looks like you two are having so much fun at these events. Love to see it.

I’m so jealous! My stereo is broken so I’m using a Bluetooth speaker.

The crossfire injection was nothing but trouble My friend was a gm mechanic back in the day he hated them

Nice bike. Why no license plate or directionals? 🤓

Nice! I’ve seen those kits and wondered how well they work.

Great video! I’m the owner of the Blue mustang, I appreciate the compliments!

That chevrolet is beautiful 😍 🔥🔥

Loving it, sweet rides!

I didn't know you were Venezuelan. I have a sound mixer friend who's been trying to bring his family to FL for years but he's been mired in bureaucratic red tape.

Love that metallic blue classic stingray!

Move the clamp off the rubber until it is in place. Plus those don't need clamps. And that tool has a name...pliers.

Thanks I brought the fm tranmiter and filled your set

Any regrets buying such an old shadow? Id like to get one. The prices for pre 2010ish models are far more affordable for me. Plus I don't want an expensive prestige first bike. Great videos!

That’s not a pcv. The passenger side is

My hose was split on my 03 cobra, just used electrical tape around the split... Probably going to do this soon. Great upload man! ❤A leaking PCV valve hose can cause so many issues... Poor idle and stuttering/Engine dying at low idle. Not fun! 😄

Did you go to Ride at Joe's Tampa for your motorcycle training? I think that I rode the same Suzuki GZ 250. Just more dents missing a turn signal with the Fran Haasch sticker on it. Ironically my first bike is 2011 Honda Shadow Aero. I rode it around a parking lot at a dealership in Sarasota. Then I rode the Shadow home, back to North Tampa. Where are your turn signals? I figured that you probably have LED turn signals integrated into your bike somehow. I like your rear tail light integrated into your rear fender.

what problems can this make, this is the one hose that I never got around replacing on the new motor swap we lost the elbow 🤣 we just bought something to put in place

Very nice bike... Shadows are bullet-proof bikes... I own a 2020 Honda Shadow Phantom 750... Here's a quick video of her the day I upgraded her exhaust and bags... kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXnQYYOwlqt_pa8 Be safe out there and enjoy your bike...👍🏾🙏 Have a great rest of your night 🌙 Greetings from Douglas, Arizona 🌵🦠😷🇵🇷 Like #8

Thank you! I bought this car used and was doing a IAC cleaning, noticed that the elbow hose was ripped. Couldn’t find anything online since I didn’t know what the part was called exactly.
