Here's rolling proof that classic ideas never go out of style. The 2010 Honda Shadow RS makes an immediate impact, whether you're admiring the clean simplicity of its silhouette, or soaking in the deep rumble of its powerful V-twin engine. Cast your eyes over the luxurious chrome details, the gleaming spoke wheels, the imposing twin mufflers, and the short, neatly chopped tail. It's a look that makes you want to reach for your helmet and head out on a ride to someplace you've never been before. Beneath that classic styling, however, you'll find thoroughly modern engineering that results in a bike that's a blast to ride.
