1100 Shadow spirit - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

ok my dad has a 2005 honda shadow spirit 1100. He wants a center stand for it or at least a stand that will allow him to get the back wheel off the ground. a regular jack etc will not work as the motor dips below the frame. Anyone out there with this bike or that has had this bike, or even just knows of something somewhere that is a solution to this?

I have had a friend's 1100 up on my Craftsman motorcycle jack as well as my Shadow 600, which has same configuration as the 1100. Both took a little effort to get it on right, but once up on the lift they were very sturdy.

As a matter of fact, my wife had knocked my C50 over into the Shadow while it was on the lift (no damage to either, thank god) and the Shadow on the lift never even budged. Probably what saved both bikes from getting any damage.

Hehe, yeah. I couldn't do anything to her. She was beating herself up for it enough for both of us. She barely even goes near it now. Besides, no damage. Scared the crap out of me, as I was walking between the two when it happened.
