The Honda Shadow 750 series of cruisers began its history in 1983 with the introduction of the Honda NV750 Custom model, which was available in the markets of North America and Japan. In 1986, the motorcycle changed its name to the Shadow 750, which was updated both technically and visually. The then model was pretty much forced (which is typical for all Japanese cruisers of those years), giving out up to 66 hp. power. These versions are present at Japanese auctions, but due to their age, there are not so many of them.

In 1997, the first version with the name '' Honda VT750 Shadow '' entered the market in the American Classic Edition (A.C.E.) modification, which began the rapid growth of the model's popularity. The modification featured classic American features with deep fenders, wide spoked wheels and chain drive. In parallel, an internal Japanese modification was released - [[Honda_Shadow_400 | Honda Shadow 400]].
In 2009, another modification appears - '''Honda VT750C2B Phantom'''. In some countries it was sold under the name '' Black Spirit ''. Despite the similarity of the name with the Honda VT750C2 Shadow Spirit, the Phantom modification is not associated with it, but is a version of the Aero in black, with a straight steering wheel and short fenders. Versions with ABS appear in the Aero modification.
In 2010, another modification was presented - '''' Honda VT750RS Shadow '''. Marketed in Japan as Honda VT750S. Visually reminiscent of the classic model [[Honda_VRX400_Roadster | Honda VRX400]]. It differs from the entire line of the Shadow 750 with a shortened wheelbase, increased saddle height, increased ground clearance, practically the lowest curb weight (second only to the NV750 Custom), a 10-liter fuel tank and a chain drive.
In 2013, the RS modification leaves the market, and the Honda VT750C2 Shadow Spirit gets a version with ABS (referred to as VT750C2S). 2015 was the last year of production for the Honda VT750C2 Shadow Spirit.
Currently, only the Aero and Phantom versions are present in the production line.
