Information

2012 Honda® Shadow RS

Behold, The Classic Roadster.

Check it out: higher-set footpegs and a shorter, more upright bar. We’re talking serious classic roadster here, built for riders who want to actively ride their bike, and not just putt from place to place. Make no mistake: the Shadow® RS will transport you anywhere you want to go, and you’re going to have a blast getting there. This Shadow® offers a heavy dose of old-school roadster style and function—you don’t have to look hard to see the classic flat-track influences in the peanut-shaped fuel tank and flatter seat. It all adds up to an amazing motorcycle that’s just as much at home on a favorite back road as it is prowling on a Saturday night.

Features may include:
  • Power player.

    • The Shadow® RS has total street cred when it comes to power and torque, thanks to its brawny, liquid-cooled 745cc V-twin. Cruise cross-town or hit the highway—this machine can handle both, and sound really good doing it.

  • Honda Fuel Injection.

    • The Shadow® RS’s fuel-injection system delivers trouble-free starting in almost any condition, and better performance to boot!

  • Comfortable classic.

    • Higher pegs, more upright bars, and a plush, low, but slightly flatter saddle add up to cruiser comfort with a sporty feel. Which, when you think about it, is exactly how it should be with a machine this versatile.

  • Don’t be fuelish.

    • One of the best things about the Shadow® RS? It gets awesome fuel economy. How good? How about an estimated 56 miles per gallon*? Now that’s Honda smart!
