The VT750RS/VT750S is the roadster member of the 750 Shadow family: same fuel-injected 52-degree V-twin, but with chain final drive, a 19-inch front wheel, higher footpegs, a flatter seat and more upright bars. The result is a lighter, more standard-style riding position than the Aero or Phantom, with a small peanut tank and bar-mounted instruments. For 2012-13 it continued with little change, aimed at riders who wanted classic V-twin character without a full cruiser stance.
