VT750CD/C2/C3/C/CD3 ACE Honda Factory Specifications:
Here you will find specs for Honda’s American Classic Edition (ACE) VT750 motorcycle. These specs apply to the standard VT750 ACE and the VT750 ACE Deluxe which had additional decorative chrome pieces and special paint options. Depending on the year your ACE was made there are a handful of model numbers used including the C2 in the early years and then the C, CD, C3, and CD/3 model numbers in latter years depending on if it is a Deluxe or standard ACE. Although their gearing is slightly different due to different sized rear sprockets the ACE and DC Spirit use the same Engine so their specs are quite similar including their stock and dyno horsepower and torque ratings.
The Honda Shadow ACE 750, also known as the American Classic Edition 750 and also as the SA750 is the first member of the 750 series of Honda Shadow V Twin Cruisers introduced in 1997. The ACE was designed to compete with the looks and styling of the popular Harley Davidson motorcycles with the reliability and power of Honda enginieering. Being a Shadow 750 makes it one of the most reliable and affordable mid size cruisers of its time and is most notably identified by its long fenders, covered front forks, comfortable factory seat, 52 spoke wheels, and a chain drive which maintains a true old school appearance over newer shaft driven Honda shadow models.
