Classic cruisers are so popular because they’re so comfortable—the low seat and low center of gravity, the laid-back riding position, the no-rush way they make their power. And our Honda Shadow Aero hits it out of the park on all counts, and throws in the kind of reliability, fit, finish, and overall refinement nobody else can match.

Case in point: every 2024 Shadow Aero gets a larger rear disc brake that not only works great but integrates into the bike’s look flawlessly. Add in the performance our three-valve cylinder-head design brings, maintenance-reducing features like shaft final drive, and the Aero’s classic good looks and you can see why this bike is so popular. For 2024 it’s available in two versions, the Shadow Aero and the Shadow Aero ABS, with anti-lock brakes. Either way, it’s a bike that brings old school cool to your garage.

Features and benefits

V-Twin Engine
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

2-into-2 Exhaust system
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.

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

Five-speed transmission
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
