Honda VT1100

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Honda VT1100 is a motorcycle engine used in numerous bikes in the Honda product line since its debut in 1985[1]. Measuring 1098 cc, the engine is a 45 degree twin-cylinder with liquid cooling. It provides around 50 horsepower (37 kW), depending on application and tuning.

Though known for simplicity and reliability, this engine has recently lost popularity in favor of larger bikes such as the VTX 1300 / 1800 and Valkyrie. 2007 was the last year the VT1100 engine was produced.

The VT1100 has been used in the following Honda Shadow motorcycles:

  • Shadow Spirit 1100
