The Honda VT125 Shadow is a cruiser motorcycle introduced by Honda in 1999 as the VT125C Shadow VLX and continued until 2008 as the VT125C2 Shadow Aero. The Honda Shadow 125 shares many similarities with the Shadow 600 and Shadow 750. This compact bike uses the same liquid-cooled 4-stroke 90-degree V-Twin engine as found on the Honda Shadow VT600C, but reduced in engine displacement to 124.5 cc. The VT125 Shadow has an automatic clutch and a CVT transmission, making it a suitable bike for new riders.
