The '''[[Honda]] VT1100C3''' is a [[cruiser]] [[motorcycle]] produced by [[Honda]] from 1998 to 2002 better known as the '''Honda Shadow Aero'''.  It originally featured a [[single pin crank]] which due to [[Harley-Davidson]]s threats over the [[Potato Patent]] caused Honda to eventually revert the bike to the technically superior [[dual pin crank]].
The Aero is Honda's retro VT1100. From its stretched overall length of 2502 millimeters to its ultra-low seat, the Aero emphasizes the best of classic styling. The valenced fenders, floorboards and [[fishtail exhaust]] all give the Aero it's classic profile while the ultra-wide 140/80-17 front and 170/80-15 rear tires offers a wide [[footprint]]. The custom saddle offers a high level of comfort while the detachable passenger portion allows an even more radical look when cruising solo.
