The first time you lay eyes on the 2011 Honda Shadow Phantom VT750C2, it’s impossible to keep yourself from staring. Gawking, really. And wishing you had one in your garage. After all, this is the most unique Shadow we’ve ever made, an utterly stunning head-turner with its blacked-out 745cc V-twin engine and black rims sporting matte silver highlights, bobbed fenders, spoke wheels, and beefy front forks. Then the exhaust note hits you, a deep, throaty pulse rumbling from dual exhausts. It’s hard to resist, we know. And downright impossible once you’ve seen its price tag.

Minimalist Art.

The Shadow Phantom embodies the minimalist, stripped-down ideal of custom cruisers past, delivering a uniquely clean and uncluttered look accented with extensive use of blacked-out features—the frame, engine, rims, and handlebars—bringing motorcyclists back to what it means to be cool. With its torquey 745cc V-twin engine featuring the sophisticated ease of Programmed Fuel Injection and three-valve/dual-plug combustion chamber construction serving up heaps of low-, mid-, and top-end muscle, the very affordably priced Shadow Phantom puts the thrill of saddling up one of the wickedest customs on pavement within reach of just about every rider.

Special Delivery.

The Shadow Phantom 745cc V-twin engine features Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI), ensuring easy cold-weather starting and seamless, any-condition fuel delivery.

Black to the Future.

Bad boys wear black, and the Shadow Phantom, with its all-black engine, frame, rims, and handlebar—all ever so perfectly accented with matte silver highlights—is a very bad boy indeed.

Hassle-Free Flying.

Durable and virtually maintenance-free shaft final drive ensures smooth, dependable power delivery to the asphalt from the Shadow Phantom’s beefy 745cc V-twin.

Features

Fuel Injection – The Phantom’s PGM-FI system ensures optimal fuel delivery, and thus performance, utilizing sensors for intake-port pressure, engine-coolant temperature, intake-air temperature and atmospheric pressure.

745cc V-twin Engine – The Shadow Phantom’s liquid-cooled, 745cc V-twin produces remarkable power across a broad rpm range, perfect for cruising or commuting, while its long-stroke crankshaft design helps create that strong V-twin pulse and low-rpm torque.

Honda, however, states the mass market model of the vehicle is still in development. Powered by a lithium-ion battery manufactured by Toshiba and a brushless motor, the Honda EV-neo electric scooter is extremely environmental friendly, with zero CO2 emissions when in use.

The battery is rechargeable using a household power source, and Honda claims its performances can be compared to that of conventional internal combustion 50cc scooter.

The systems have double ceramic coating that increases exhaust gas flow and therefore improves power. Besides better performance, lower exhaust pipe temperatures makes a more comfortable ride by reducing heat.

The CB1100 is designed very much as a vintage style bike and as such has modest performance stats. The four-cylinder DOHC engine produces 87 hp and 92 Nm of torque, ideal for this kind of cruising, retro bike. The focus on good looks is evident in the finished product of the CB1100 and that’s what this is all about – a stylish, good looking, retro run-around. See the pics and video for a closer look.

With its handmade aluminium fuel tank, custom fabricated 4-2-1 exhaust system and long list of carbonfibre parts, the CB750 Café Type Motorimoda weighs 220 kilos – 15kg less than a stock CB750. We think the bike looks totally cool, though at 2.7 million Yen (US$29,700), it’s certainly not cheap! More details on the Motorimoda website here

Featuring long, low lines that embody what cruising is all about, the Stateline blends two worlds of motorcycling style: traditional looks plus progressive elements. The deeply valanced fenders arc downward in classic retro style, yet the all-new rolling chassis and overall lines bring a fresh look to the class. Add to that the deep throaty rumble of a big V-twin engine with Honda’s Programmed Fuel Injection and that classic big Vee power pulse, and you have a machine that’s the perfect choice for cruising–any time you want.

Introducing the 2010 Honda Stateline. Call it the perfect fusion of traditional and progressive cruiser design, featuring all the classic cues that make the Fury and Sabre so cool, plus a few twists that are decidedly neo-retro, like deep, long fenders.
