They dont exist. The Honda "Shadow" line didn't start until 2003. If someone is trying to sell an 82' Shadow they either don't know the year of the bike or are pawning off a magna or something on those lines.....either way..if they are not giving correct details about a motorcycle they are selling..its best to go elsewhere for a bike. Hope that helps. On the other hand...there is no reason not to buy a 1983 Honda Shadow as long as the bike's in good condition and not salvaged. You can get a great bike by going back to the 80's and buying cheap. Most of the parts that you would need to replace (If any) wouldn't be hard to get from an after market provider or even off of most newer shadow's since Honda like's to keep their bikes simple and interchangeable. Good Luck :)
Any antifreeze that will not hurt aluminum.
You can use any commercial coolant for automobiles or Honda's own coolant.
Use any JASO-MA or MA2 or SAE SF-SG oil of W 15-40 for this bike.
Use any JASO MA or MA2 approved oil of 10w/40 weight.
any brand that is 29/50 in weight
I have a 1999 Shadow 600 VLX, shouldn't be any different than yours, oil capacity is 2.38 quarts if you drain and change oil filter.
There are two possibilities here. One, go to any large Honda motorcycle dealership that has been in operation since your bike was manufactured. It is possible they have an owners or service manual that you can copy. Second, join a Honda Shadow owner's forum on the internet, some of the members will verly likely help you out.
Any JASO MA or MA2 approved oil of grade 15-40 W.
i have a 2007 honda shadow spirit 750. I took off the gas line and the coolant line I got them back on but now its wanting to die when i take off in first gear any help please??
You can order replacement parts from any large Honda dealership. This is perhaps the safest way to go. In addition, you can see these kits for sale on e-bay for around $60.
Any good JASO MA or MA2 approved motorcycle oil, 15-40 W.
Any JASO-MA or MA2 approved oil of weight 10-40 W or 15-40 W will do.
