Honda Shadow Phantom Mod Series - Episode 2: Headlight, Tail Light & License Plate Install 

I'd like to see how you wire up the light please!

Dude this is a godsend - this whole series build is my exact bike and I’m getting inspiration together for these exact mods! Hope you have some of these bits available when I get through this series and get my hands dirty!

Dude any of us Phantom guys should appreciate this channel. Being that Harley cant figure out how to make an affordable barhopper Im just gonna bob my baby out

This is one of the first builds I’m actually excited to see I ride a 2008 spirit 750 can’t wait to see more

What have you done to the rest of the rearside of the bike? Lights, indicators?

Awesome quality videos. Do u have a video on how to remove the ugly backend (tail light/turn signals) and replace it with something cool?

Thanks for doing these, I have a 2012 Phantom. Looking forward to swapping the ghastly fork covers for gaiters. I’ve been listening looking at e-tanks and trying to figure out which ones fit, I’m glad you’re making one!

First off I love your products TJ, and your videos are awesome as well. I have a 2010 Phantom so I'm looking forward to seeing more videos on the phantom alone. I personally like the stock tank but that's just me. The mock up tank in this video is ok but I like when they wrap down and around the backbone, again that's just my personal preference. I do love the license plate and tail light side mount and love that tail light as well, looks kind of vintage or old school. Keep it up man 🍻

Great idea for the sissy bar. Been looking for a good one.

The tank is cool but need to be a little lower over the backbone - possibly higher tunnel. Something tells me im going to be giving you a lot of money lol. I would love to see a daymaker headlight upgrade, or other custom headlight options and maybe some custom fenders?

TJB! Not feeling the tank, although I am new too all of this. I've been watching/catching up on all your videos for the past few months. I have my eyes set on a 06 VT spirit. I've surfed your shop page multiple times. Come this spring my project will begin. I'll keep watching and share with you my build!

Love the low tunnel, fresco look. I love everything you did so far.

came for the honda tips, subbed for the Cowboy bebop sleeve.

Would look way cooler if tank would cover and go around the frame pipe at its diameter... Great video, keep up... Subed and belled!

Hey TJ, Bike looks awesome great choices all around, the new tank looks great the way it is, I would suggest cleaning up under the seat by utilizing the space on the swing arm square. Thanks for sharing.

I can't wait to see more. I have the vt750dc. That's in need of a TJBC intake thru exhaust. Come on work bonus!

So excited for the tank ! Dropping the new tank over the backbone would probably hide the hideous wiring and tubes under the tank, but if it's easily addressed and pretty straight forward to clean up, i say leave the tank on top. I love the way the new tank is sitting, been waiting for someone (you obviously) to make a bolt on or minimal fab work replacement tank for the 750 shadow cause that thing is thicc, in a bad way. Either way, i'm buying. Keep up the good work !

Looks awesome so far! I think your thinking outside the box! Very unique!!👍🏻👍🏻

Wish u would offer a bigger tank. Don't like the way the small ones look and the factory one on my 600 is to small. Thanks

oh this is great. I just bought a 2004 Shadow Aero that is about halfway 'done' compared to what I'd like. So I'll be curious to see what you do with the bike, and if/how you do some specific things

So you need to do a whole video on how to raise handlebars including how to source and install longer brake lines, throttle cable(s) and clutch cables. AND for extra credit you should sell bundles of these cables with the matching sheathes on your web store so people can buy the appropriate parts directly from you and watch your videos on installs for it. Raising handlebars is a very popular mod and currently you’re like one of the only specialist boutique web stores that sells mods for this product but you DONT sell all products for raising handlebars. Even the one handlebar product in your web store is constantly out of stock. Anyway just trying to be helpful. In retail an empty shelf is a sale lost. Bought my z bars on Amazon cause I couldn’t buy them here. Now I’m shopping elsewhere for appropriate 6 over and 12 over cables and it’s a chore sourcing this. Would gladly have bought a package here from you for a markup. Keep the shiny side up guys!

im digging the tank!

I prefer the license plate vertical. Cant wait to see the final result

Love watching you vids bro. I have a 2002 Honda shadow spirit 750dc and been using your parts to make it my own. The only place to get aftermarket parts for Hondas. 🤘

I would order that tank tomorrow. Cant wait to get my hands on it. Is the headlight stock?

I'm excited somebody's finally make an aftermarket parts my 750 but I definitely prefer the original tank

I really like that peanut thank, if you can make one to fit the stock configuration it'll be awesome, if you can't then explain a little bit how to do it. I would like to know how you moved or relocate the fuel pump, and how to mount the electronic tank. Also, it'll be awesome a riserless bolt on handlebar, like that one but without the risers, lol (kinda self explanatory). Anyway, I think I'm asking to much in just one comment, but I definitely have other ideas that might bring up on future videos. Keep it up.

Love the rank man...... move forward on that 4durw

The tank mounts gonna be awesome for my 06 aero 😬🙏

100% agreed. I think the taillight assembly is the single thing on a shadow that is just so out of place. To each their own, personally i never did like the side mounted tail lights and plates. If i were to do sidemount tail lights i would want a light mounted on each side. and most likely replace the whole rear assembly with just a license plate bracket and light for the plate. possibly one or two of those tiny like 1 inch tail lights under the license plate.

Honda finally made a bike with a conventional backbone. Hallelujah. Tank looks good like that man! If not then how about a coffin or prism tank

I love the tall tank. Will that tail light work with the other license plate bracket y’all offer?

Loving that tank! I vote yes!

Would love to know about the handlebars they look so good

I like the gas tank...Would be good if it was a flow from the tank to the seat..without a massive gap in between...I also like the electric box but I'd use it more for storing tools if that's possible...the light cluser I seen a LED light brake light turn signal all in one that fit's under the rear feder..so would be interesting to see if your changing the rear federal as it is quiet gastly....I've been toying with the idea off sprints on the front end look wise would look awesome I think but not sure on the handling never rode with a spring front end...looking forward to this as I have the same bike...

Tank looks cool

what other options you have for a tail light?

Cool videos 👌 Like the mods! Peanut tank is definitely an improvement 👍👍

Is the sheet metal wrap on the upper front forks easy to get rid of?? I don't think they make the bike look ANY better

Hey tj, i love your stuff but i do have a question. I recently bought a krator fairing for my 2022 shadow phantom and i bought Memphis shield bracket kit and it sits the fairing on the bike. My only issue is the headlight sits too low and deep inside the fairing. Do you have a headlight extension kit that could work for my fairing? The headlight is also the original stock housing in case you needed the info. I would love to order one if it could help relocate the headlight to fit better in the fairing.

Where did you get that rear fender? Last video, you had a plastic fender that was cut away?

It never mentioned anything about replacing the rear fender! What did you do back there? On the first episode someone had chopped up the original one...

Love that tank bro

Which risers did you use for the handlebars and do you know if they will work on a 2018 shadow Phantom VT750C2B

I have the same stack intake on mine and has of today i can hear a hissing sound or louder air nose from it

I installed the 2 pin electronic flasher with the led bulbs mentioned in your comments below on my 2008 Honda shadow aero 750. I used the one below led bulbs for the front turn signal GLL 1157 BAY15D 5730 20 SMD Amber/White Switchback Turn Signal LED Light Bulbs 3.8W 12V LED Super Bright 600 Lumens 6000-6500K Brake Light Lamp (Pack of 2) I used the one below led bulbs for the rear turn signal iBrightstar Newest 9-30V Super Bright Low Power 1157 2057 2357 7528 BAY15D LED Bulbs with Projector replacement for Turn Signal Lights and Brake Lights, Amber Yellow After installing everything, my front turn signal flashes one at a time but both the rear turn signals flashes at the same time. Can you tell me why it is happening?

Did you keep the kickstand kill switch?

I like the taillight !!

The tank tells me that you would want a Harley Sportster or chopper instead. Tastes are arbitrary, as i would left the original, But my attitude would be to restore to a running bike. I see you as an artist, and the bike , your canvas and colors - So Ill be watching -

What did you do for the turn signals?

What brand and size (information please) for the Handle bars?

Is the E Tank for the phantom for sale yet?

Do you sell Speedo relocation brackets by chance?

Will the new tank you’re designing fit the square shadow ace backbone?

What about an emissions strip on this model? (Just bought a 2015)

Any idea if you need to by pass clutch safety in order for it to start .

So I purchased a similar brake light/plate mount and it’s 3 wires red/yellow with green stripe and black I’m struggling with the old system and making it work any help?

Looks cool :)

I have a 97 honda shadow. Should i upgrade it of get a new one? Im just wanted you advice

Is there an option to purchase the electronic tank for this model phantom 750??

I wired in a start button and kill switch and now my headlight won’t kick on. Any thought?

When do you plan on having the peanut tank released?

Ct is horizontal Of course, I would prefer vertical....oh well. Looks great either way.

I have a 2012 honda shadow phantom 750 it's not getting spark at the plug iv checked everything I was wondering if both sides of the plugs on the coils are supposed to have 12v power I used a test light iv used and ohms meter everything else seems to work I check the coils everything is good but nothing is coming out of the coils

What size are those bars

I don't like the tank! But i do like your channel. I have the exact same phantom.

I had the same license plate support, not the best especially the tail light is too heavy for that support in horizontal mode, it breaks easily :(

Love that gas tank!!!! Will it hold just as much gas tho? Lol

Drop down would look better imo. I like the big fat stock tank but it has a really stupid rim on the bottom that I want to grind down flush.

whtas the headlight called on this bike?

i bought a vt750 rs and im regretting it i cant find anything after market for it fuel tank wise... cuz 2.8 gallons is not my comfort zone... so i can either strap a bunch of gas cans to it ... or i can try and retrofit another gas tank to it or get a custom one made and welded to it.

Cant figure out why the license plate light dosnt work on mine, everything else works fine

Any chance you'd sell me that tank and speedo setup? I have a 2009 Shadow Spirit, same tank basically, but mine doesn't have the fuel dummy light lol

I know it's about bobbers im not a fan of the peanut style tanks there to small and sit way to high I'm thinking more like a street Bob tank love watching your videos

The peanut tank doesn't suit the 750, an drop down Old Skool Mustang bobber gas tank would be cool

First!

DO NOT like the tank. Looks weird.
