On all motorcycles about 80%, yes 80 percent of the stopping "power" is the front brake,the only thing watch out not to slide the front tire in lose debries.
the 80 means the brake horse power.
yes. all vehicles built some time after the early 80's had standard front disc brake package. The Shadow wasnt born until 1987.
Front- $50 Rear- $80 If you do it yourself. It is an easy job. 2 on a scale of 1-10. Front-- remove the wheel,remove the brake hardware,remove the hub bearing. Rear-- remove the wheel,remove the brake drum,remove the hub bearing. You don't need to remove the rear brake hardware. Very simple job...

The brakes them selves are around $80 for the front and $85 for the rear, the cost of installation depends on the mechanic doing the work. The best way to find out is to call some local mechanics and auto repair shops in the area.
On cars for the past 80 years ALL wheels have brakes !
