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-Davidsons 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.
