Regular Unleaded 87 octane.
NO
17 mm.
87 octane unleaded. There is no benefit to running higher octane fuel in the VLX. The only caution is fuel with a heavy ethanol content as the ethanol can attract water when sitting for a while which will cause problems with the carburetor. (Personal experience.)
how do i change the oli im my 2008 Honda shadow vlx
2.9 US gallons, with .9 gallons of that as reserve.
what wheel will fit Honda vt 600 vlx shadow
I get about 115 mile to the tank before switching to the reserve. The take is about 2.5 gal.
10W-30, API service SM/SL. Do not use an oil that says it has fuel saving additives, that type can adversely effect clutch operation. On a personal note, I use Valvoline synthetic in my '07 VLX.
About 38 horsepower for dual-carburetor models of the VLX / VT-600.
It fits with stock seat.
The load capacity is quite low for a Honda Shadow VLX. It cannot carry more than 300 pounds without strain on the engine.
For the 1997 thru 2007 Honda Shadow VLX 600 use a 50-50 mixture of distilled water and ethylene glycol for maximum corrosion protection. DO NOT USE alcohol-based antifreeze or an antifreeze with self sealing propreties. Add the coolant at the reserve tank.
