Per VINdown's modeling, the Honda VT750C Shadow AERO retains an estimated 84% of its value after five years, ranking #21 of 1005 powersports vehicles we track. That is 9 points above the 74% five-year average for Cruiser in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Honda VT750C Shadow AERO sheds about 2% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $7,949 it falls to around $6,645 by year five — a five-year loss near $1,304, about $0.71 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Honda VT750C Shadow AERO bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
