COOLER THAN EVER

Our Honda Shadow Phantom may be a traditional-style cruiser, but it’s sporting some major updates and improvements for 2024. First of all, we’ve given the Phantom a powerful new rear disc brake this year for excellent, linear stopping power. Plus, the new rear disc means you can get a Phantom with optional anti-lock brakes (ABS) now.* Then there are all the styling updates: new paint and graphic patterns, a new headlight cover, bright, machined-edge cylinder-head fins, a new air cleaner cover, and new instruments. There’s even a cool new solo seat standard, with an optional passenger seat and foot pegs available—you decide how you want to roll. New fork-leg covers, and front and rear LED turn signals complete the package.

FEATURES:

COMFORT

• LOW SEAT HEIGHT: The Phantom’s low seat height makes flat-footing it at stoplights or in parking lots a breeze. And the Phantom’s narrow seat/tank junction makes it feel even lower.
• SOLO SADDLE: Sleek, one-piece solo seat is comfortable and looks great too. If you’re bringing a passenger along, check out our accessory passenger seat and footpegs.

DRIVETRAIN

• SHAFT FINAL DRIVE: Clean, efficient, proven, and low maintenance. Shaft final drive is the perfect choice for a machine like this, and for riders who pile on the miles. You never have to worry about lubrication or adjustment out on the road. And an added plus: it helps keep your bike cleaner, too.
• FIVE-SPEED TRANSMISSION: The Shadow Phantom’s wide-ratio five-speed transmission lets you cruise the boulevard at a low, unhurried pace, yet allows you hop on the highway without revving the engine through the roof.

PERFORMANCE

• V-TWIN ENGINE: Nothing pumps out the torque like a bold V-twin. The Phantom’s power makes it perfect for around-town cruising, commutes and casual weekend-long rides.
• PROGRAMMED FUEL INJECTION (PGM-FI): Forget about fiddling with a choke—the Shadow's fuel injection system means no-hassle startups on cold mornings or at high altitudes, and optimal performance in any condition.
• THREE-VALVE DUAL-PLUG COMBUSTION CHAMBER: It’s the best of both worlds: The three-valve combustion chambers used on our V-twin cruisers feature two intake valves and one exhaust, helping them breathe efficiently to boost both horsepower and torque.

STYLE

• BOBBER-INSPIRED STYLING: The short fenders, clean seat, and hidden wiring and de-chromed treatment all give the Phantom its unique look: like an old-school cruiser that’s ready for the way we roll today.
• TANK-MOUNTED INSTRUMENTS: A key element of the Shadow Phantom’s look are the tank-mounted instruments. Set in a blacked-out pod to match the rest of the bike’s look, they combine a traditional feel with a thoroughly modern treatment.
• BLACKED-OUT STYLING: The closer you look at a Shadow Phantom, the better it looks. That’s because the styling is so unified. Check out the way the blacked-out engine, rims, frame, fork, headlight and seat all hang together. It really makes the tank stand out on the Deep Pearl Gray or Orange Metallic model.
• ALL LED LIGHTING: For 2024, the Shadow Phantom gets LED turn signals that give the bike a clean, updated look.
• CYLINDER-FIN HIGHLIGHTS: The Phantom embraces a blacked-out look, but we’ve added machined-edge cylinder-head fins this year that really stand out. It’s just the right amount highlighting to catch your eye and make this critical component sing.
• FRONT FENDERS: Just keeping things fresh here, but new front and rear fenders are a big part of the Phantom’s contemporary, muscular, athletic look.
• SPOKED WHEELS: The Shadow Phantom’s spoked black wheels and hubs complete the overall custom look.
