1985 Honda Shadow VT500C (#1)

The 1985 Honda Shadow VT500C model was available in either Black or Candy Glory Red. The head lamps were round and chromed. This model continued with the dual horns. A two piece seat with an integrated backrest was incorporated. Starting this year, the engine covers were polished chrome and the fins enlarged. The "Honda" tank decal was curved instead of straight.

One of the previous owners of this bike went spray paint happy and painted almost everything flat black. I'm going to strip off everything that I can to get it back to the original look.

Tank obviously needs to be painted...
