Crazy question, with the exhaust, do you hear like “water” sound when driving? I just cut my exhaust behind the baffles so it’s technically straight pipe and I find it sounds kinda funny at just the right rpms
It's from ebay. Search for Honda shadow 1100 lowered shocks and it should pop up. Mine are the 10.5" and were about $180. I believe stock is 11.75" the brand I believe is corsa, but that's not very relevant.
Yes, it was my first bike. Just keep in mind an 1100 is a big bike to start on, but it's not like a crotch rocket and it doesn't make a lot of power. Just be careful and respect the throttle.
Sounds better than the stock
The bars are kick ass man. Ape hangers the proper way Just got me a half bobbed 86 shadow quiet a bit wrong but it’s solid running bike
love it...... i'm inspired to do mine now!
Hell yeah man. You'll love your bike way more when you make it your own.
@@usMarinecuv902 Thanks!! Now im even more psyched!!!
Carry on Marine
I just picked up 1100 Shadow 2003
Oh btw. The saddle bags nice too man. After you paint those wheels it’ll be real nice looking. Where did you get the chrome covers? Under the seat
The chrome covers are stock. After 96 I believe.
A sissy bar would make this bike go even more hard! But killer bike man 🤘🤘
Thanks man.
Last step is so switch out the foot rests. I have the vt1100c2 sabre and i hated those stock food rests
I actually happen to like them a lot. They are comfortable and stable.

Also to clarify, we have the same bike. Mines an 2002 spirit Vt1100c
@@cheapman45 im not sure about a water sound, but these engines only sound good when you're giving her the beans. They just sound OK at low rpm
What rear shocks are you using? I have an 03 shadow ace been looking for some rear shocks to power the rear end

@@usMarinecuv902 awesome thank you! The stock ones are so ugly. Good looking bike by the way
Do u recommend this type of bike for someone that is new to the bike seen??? Anyone have any advice thanks in advance

Is it a 1100c2? Also are your turn signals led?
It's a vt1100c and no, they're not led. I tried leds before and couldn't get them to work properly
@@usMarinecuv902 dude same wtf
1100c3 motor, for leds you need resistors. I have a vt1100c3 spirit aero.
@@BobOreily1124 I had some resisters, but obviously i didn't do something right, so i gave up and bought incandescent lights.
@@usMarinecuv902 that's fair. Shits annoying, especially on our y2k bikes.
