HONDAVT750C3 Shadow ACE 2000 - 2001

　　The Honda Shadow was a family of cruiser-type motorcycles manufactured by Honda from 1983 and powered by a liquid-cooled V-twin engine ranging from 120 to 1,100 cc displacement. Also, the 250cc Honda Rebel was associated with the Shadow line in certain markets.

　　With the Shadow line of motorcycles, Honda wanted to address the needs of the American cruiser market with the VT500C and VT750C machines. Due to tariff restrictions at the time for imported Japanese bikes over 700cc, the VT750C was reduced from 750 to 700cc and sold as the VT700C.

　　In 2001, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda VT750C3 Shadow ACE, a cruiser-styled motorcycle that also came in a Deluxe version fitted with a host of chromed accents for those who most appeal to the classic appearance of shiny metal.

　　The 2001 Deluxe version featured tons of chromed elements, such as the front fork covers, side stand, brake and clutch levers brackets, rear brake pedal, shift lever, footpegs brackets, chain guard, swingarm pivot cap, side engine covers, cylinder head cover, and a black engine with polished cooling fins.

　　The 2001 VT750C3 Shadow ACE model packed a single seat with a detachable passenger seat, a low-mounted handlebar, and a long, stretched-design fuel tank. Also, the bike was available with optional features, such as a cruiser windscreen, a radiator cover, a backrest, a rear carrier, and a cycle cover.
