What is the Honda Shadow 1100’s oil type?

I’m going to buy my brother oil for his Honda to keep on hand, but I don’t know what to buy. What kind of oil does the Honda Shadow 1100 use?

That’s so nice of you! It’s always a great idea to keep some oil in your trunk in case you’re ever running low.
A Honda Shadow 1100’s oil type depends on its model year. Some years use 10w-30 oil—but it varies.
Check the oil cap under the hood on your engine block and see if it is labeled with the oil type your car needs. If you can’t find anything there, check the owner’s manual of the car.
Still no luck? Contact your local Honda dealer, and they should be able to help. Good luck!
