2005 Honda Shadow Sabre VT1100c2


  • so I have a 2005 Honda Shadow Sabre VT1100 2 I have so many questions about it.

    1.If I remove the carburetor and install velocity stacks:

    • The stock air box gets removed
    • Does the air box stay removed permanently, or is it needed for anything after?

    2.My main concern right now is the water pump (besides the carburetor).

    • I’ve looked through forums and online posts, but I want a clearer explanation
    • Ideally from someone who has worked on this exact bike/model
    • I’m trying to understand:
      • How the water pump works on this bike
      • Common issues or failures
      • What I should check or replace
      • Anything important I should know before working on it
    • do I have to buy OEM from dealer or can I buy off of eBay? Does anyone know of eom dealer of china for water pump on evay
