    Always give year, make, engine size and model # when asking questions. We need all of that info to give an informed answer.

    Shadows come in different years, engine sizes and model #s.

    VT1100C - remove the one bolt at the rear of the seat which bolts the seat bracket to the fender.

    Lift up on the bracket enough to slide your hand under it (will prevent scratching the fender).

    Hit the hump of the seat to the rear, to unhook it from the fender.

    VT600 - one bolt on each side of the seat.

    Some models, the seat bolt is at the same position as the seat strap.

    Some, the seat bolts are at an angle, pointing forward, a little in front of the rear seat.

    After removing the bolts, pull the seat to the rear.

    gas quit? i've got in no way heard something observed as that, yet while it fairly is the petcock you're concerning, then merely eliminate the hoses from it and the tank could come off. i do no longer recommend removing the petcock from the tank, besides the reality that there are circumstances the place that must be needed. If that's no longer it, I have no concept what a gas quit is...
