Engineered by Honda for the custom - cruiser motorcycle segment, the 2007 Honda Shadow 750 utilizes a 745 cc (45.5 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 44.3 HP (32.3 kW) at 5,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 64 Nm (47.2 lb-ft) at 3,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 59.5 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (3,000 rpm) and peak power (5,500 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the Shadow 750 measures 238 kg (525 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.19 HP/kg (5.37 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 658 mm (25.9 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,640 mm (64.6 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 14-liter (3.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
