2012 Honda Shadow Aero ABS (VT750ABS) Review
A Proven Winner with ABS
Shadow Aero, Old-school style. New-school performance.
As a proven favorite, the Shadow® Aero® serves as a most satisfying ride for a wide range of enthusiasts. Factor in the 2012 Honda Shadow Aero's classic retro styling, low seat height, power-packed V-twin engine now with sophisticated Programmed Fuel Injection and fine handling-all at a price that's just right for today's budgets-and you understand why the Aero is so popular with riding enthusiasts.
In our entire lineup of Shadow 750s, our 2012 Honda Shadow Aero is one of the most popular cruisers on the road. And one look will tell you why. Classic, retro style, like the spoked wheels, full fenders, and long, chromed mufflers. Thoroughly modern performance courtesy of the 745cc V-twin engine, specially tuned for low-revving torque. And maintenance-reducing features like shaft final drive. Best of all, the Aero is a huge bargain, giving you a big-bike ride without the big-bike price. And it’s a bargain when it comes time to fill up, too. If you’re ready to turn some heads in a big way, and appreciate a bike that’s never going to go out of style, the Aero is the machine for you.
Availability: December 2011


2012 Honda Shadow Aero ABS (VT750ABS) Features and Benefits
•745cc liquid-cooled 52-degree V-twin
•Classic retro styling at a great price
•ABS and CBS


New For 2012
- Pearl Black/Silver color joins Candy Dark Red.

A classic engine with modern power.

There’s nothing like a V-twin when it comes to cruisin’. And the Shadow Aero gets one of our best: a 745cc powerplant that provides plenty of torque and a wide, user-friendly powerband.

There’s no mistaking that V-twin sound.

The Aero features a custom 2-into-2 exhaust system, flowing into bullet-style mufflers. The result is a soul-stirring sound that's classic V-twin cruiser, making the Aero a bike that sounds as good as it looks.

Less maintenance means more time for riding.

Cruisers should be about getting out and having fun, not about maintenance headaches. That’s why the Aero’s shaft final drive makes so much sense. Clean, virtually maintenance-free and efficient, it’s the smart choice.
Best of all, it’s a Honda.
There’s no shame in admitting it: The first thing that grabbed your attention was the Aero’s styling. But dig a little deeper and you’ll find that there’s a lot more to like about this bike. Like every Honda, it offers an unmatched level of quality, innovation, and value. And like the Aero’s good looks, that never goes out of style
