The ultimate...except red frame...natural steel color adds to the raw character of this iconic bike.

Excellent video. Beautiful sound. What brand exhaust is that ? Thanks

Swing arm on these is so elegant. Frame is gorgeously displayed. Most beautiful bikes!

Hey! May I have your permission to use your recent dashcam clip in a compilation? Linked and credited. Thanks!

Very nice bike.

Bike is for sale as of May 2023, asking $8500, bike is located in Washington (NC), about 90 minutes outside of Raleigh.

Sounds good!!

Witam. Od którego roku na wtrysku?

I have a 22 AT, but I miss my Capo ;)

Swell

Great idea

I have an 03 also and love it. Best factory seat on any bike I've ever owned. The ride is comfy without giving anything up in the twisties when cornering. When I got it my biggest concern was could I do a 10-12 hour day on it like I can on my 1200RT. My first day big day out with it was over 10 hours. So ya it's a long day ride bike for me.

Hard To start ?

very cool muffler solution,

One of my all-time favorite bikes. Very nice exhaust system, how did you fashion it?

Interesting. Can you do another sound short ride vid with better audio?

Idle it down fo God's sake

Jesus Christ. Warn people wearing headphones. My ears are still ringing. I had a 95 SL2 back in the day. Loved that car but I beat it to death.

It sounds really good , nice work

Sounds like shit I have the same bike and I have Vance & Hines Longshots on it sounds way better than that thing

Sweet 😀

1998 Triumph Tiger with Magnaflow mufflers. Had a muffler shop cut off the stock mufflers, then weld on these Magnaflows with a cut-down 2.5" angled tip. The Magnaflows are satin stainless (not polished), 2.25" inlet/outlet, with 2.5" bore. Turn-down tips are 2.5". Magnaflows were $145 for the pair, tips were $20 for the pair, FMF clamps were $30 for the pair, and labor at the muffler shop was $40. I had to figure out a bracket to put between the FMF clamp and the stock mounting point on the rear subframe, and found that a bracket from a u-bolt was perfect. It's slotted at both ends, so I was able to adjust it to make it fit. The u-bolt brackets were $5 for two.

Forgot to mention, the microphone is a small hole right next to the lens, and I had a piece of clear tape covering it while this was being filmed. Would never know it from how loud it is, may have to experiment with other things to cover that microphone hole, like a small dab of RTV, or small piece of duct tape, or...

The VT500C Shadow is much more common, cheap, and a much better candidate for a bobber.

What's that smoke coming from your engine, it sounds great though! I've got an 1988 shadow with jetted with cobra exhausts but I like the way yours sounds! My shadow is old but damn she still runs great! That's Honda for ya. Fuck Harley! Fuk paying all that money for the name and the sound! And wen a Harley breaks down, and they do break down, you better be prepared to dip into that savings account really deep

were they jegs #289-17714?

A lot deeper and throatier than the 2 12" glasspacks I have on my 1100

is that the stock exhaust and did you do a resonator delete?

Good job mate, go the Honda V twins and fuck the Hardly Davidson shit

sounds perfect to me

Just about anything's possible, if you throw enough money at it, lol! I did a Google search on "1984 Honda Ascot VT500 bobber", and there was only a couple of pics that were of bobbers, so it looks like it could be done. Might be more of a project than it's worth, because you'd have to rake the front end or put on longer forks, lower the rear, put on forward foot controls, redo the seat and tail section, bars, tank, etc. But if you have the patience, imagination, and funds, why not?!

get a stage 3 jet kit

Can you get out on the street and ride away from the cam? Everybody does the stationary rev- up thing and that ain't a good idea of how the bike sounds when you are riding.

Wicked sound duder! WHere can I get a set? lol How does the performance of the bike respond?

@fahqdowns You're welcome...I liked riding my Shadow, it was pretty comfortable, and had a nice ride. As for your Harley friends, ask them this: "If Harley made an airplane, would they fly in it?" The obvious answer is hell no, it'd never make it off the ground, but sure would look good sitting there, lol! And like they say, 95 percent of all Harleys are still on the road, and the other 5 percent actually made it back home!

@bronzestarvue I appreciate all the great info. My harley friends talked me into buying a bike. They gave me alot of sh!t when i rolled up on my shadow but after a summer of modifying i seem to get more compliments on my bike then they do. Thankyou for the cool idea. The new mean sound will be the cherry on top.

@AntaresReborn This is a Thrush all-welded muffler, I think 2.25" inlet/outlet. Go to Summit Racing, do a search for "Thrush welded mufflers", and they should pop up. You can get a tip like that as well thru Summit.

Which Thrush is on there? I have a 2001 Saturn SC1.

Fahqdowns: yes, I got the bike rejetted. I don't have the bike anymore, so I can't tell you what the new jet sizes are. But if you do this mod, expect to change the stock jetting on the carbs.

Fahqdowns: I also had two mounting brackets made up. I had a small bolt welded on the front part of the lower muffler, that attaches with a bracket to the stock location. Then I had two small bolts welded to the rear portion of both mufflers, with a bracket that connects the two. So they're mounted pretty solidly. If you look where the rear wheel axle, you can just make out a black bracket that goes between the two mufflers.

@fahqdowns: I'm pretty sure they're 2" inlet and outlet. Like I mentioned, if I had to do it over again, I would've used a 20" for the top, and a 24" for the bottom, and slash cut tips that are 2 1/4" in diameter. I had to get some small adapter pipes made up to go from the down pipes to the inlets of the glasspacks, but a local muffler shop took care of those. The adapter pipes are hidden under the heat shields, so it looks pretty clean.

@bronzestarvue Thats the greatest thing i've seen done to a shadow. So badass i gotta do it to my vt 1100 now. Did you have to install a jet kit? What size inlet are the packs? Any info would be alot of help and thankyou for the great idea

@okmotherfucker - Yup, just a muffler swap, even reused the stock tips. And it's a MTX...sold the car a few months ago, only had 65K miles on it or something...but at least the guy I sold it to knows what the Taurus SHO is all about, so it's in good hands (he's a Mustang guy too).

@johnjsil - Thanks! Turned out about what I was expecting, and not having to rejet the carbs is a big plus. I spent about $45 on this mod ($35 for the end cap from Pro Circuit, $10 for the muffler shop to use a plasma cutter to cut the center section, and less than $1 for three new sheet metal screws and washers). Best of all, here in So Cal, the more it looks stock, the less I'll draw the attention of 5-0. I still need to find a stock muffler, just in case I want to put it back to stock.

Sounds pretty good , i like.

still pretty sweet

I think they're 24" glasspacks I bought from Summit Racing, then had a muffler shop do some connectors under the head shields, and weld the slash cut tips. If I had to do it over again, I would've gotten a 20" glasspack for the top, and 24" glasspack for the bottom, so it's not staggered so much, and 1/4" larger diameter tips.

baddest ive everheard i would love to know where ya got them
