The Honda VT1100 was a cruiser-style motorcycle part of the Shadow line in Honda's range that had its debut in 1985 and continued production until 2007 without any significant changes. All models were powered by a 1099cc V-twin engine with minimal mechanical changes during its production time.
In 2000, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda VT1100T Shadow ACE Tourer, a cruiser-style motorcycle, comfortable and reliable and ideal for long-distance touring with its touring equipment.
The 2000 ACE Tourer came equipped from the factory with standard features, such as a large windscreen, leather saddlebags, a passenger backrest, a chromed exhaust system, a two-piece dual seat, and cast aluminum wheels.
For suspension, the bike featured a 41 mm telescopic fork on the front with 150 mm of travel and five-way spring preload-adjustable dual shock absorbers on the rear with 95 mm of wheel travel for optimum suspension performance and handling.
In the braking department, the bike packed a single 316 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the front wheel and a 276 mm disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel for optimum stopping power.
As for the power figures, the 2000 Honda VT1100T Shadow ACE Tourer had its soul brought to life by a 1099cc four-stroke V-twin liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 67 hp at 5,500 rpm and 91 Nm (67 lb-ft) of torque at 2,700 rpm.
