If you’re looking for a motorcycle with that classic cruiser look and the best modern engineering, narrow your search to the Honda Shadow Aero. The V-twin engine puts out loads of torque, with a throaty dual exhaust note that’ll cause double-takes on every street corner. The comfort lasts all day, or all weekend, thanks to the low-slung seat, pullback handlebars and forward-set pegs. And with a low-maintenance shaft drive, the Shadow Aero is the textbook cruiser that’s anything but average.

Features may include:

Nothing pumps out the torque like a big V-twin. The Aero’s power makes it perfect for around-town cruising, commutes and casual weekend-long rides.

Sleek pipes feature bullet-style mufflers for that classic cruiser style of yesteryear. Large-diameter head pipes and the 2-into-2 system design combine to put out true, V-twin cruiser sound.

Broad, low-slung solo seat features a detachable passenger seat.

Wide-ratio five-speed transmission lets you cruise the boulevard at a low, unhurried pace, yet allows you to hop on the highway without revving the engine through the roof.
