Default My new toy, but not a stang!!

Well, I sold my bike back in January w/ the hopes of buying a bigger one. I had a 95 Honda Magna 750. Owned it for 4 years. It was just too small.




So I've been looking for another bike. Came across this one on e-bay. I was the highest bidder but not meeting the reserve. The seller contacted me offering the bike at $4000.00. More than I wanted to pay. A week goes by, he contacts me again asking if I wanted to pay what I had bid, $3500.00. I contacted him, told him I was interested but would need to see the bike first. So I rode out to Herndon, Va. today, checked it out, rode it, paid him the $3500.00, loaded it up on my trailer and brought it home. Needs very little clean up. Basically a good washing.














Oh, and here is my wifes bike. 02 Honda Shadow Spirit 750

NICE!!

im a bike freak, im more into sport bikes, but ive grown up around v-twins, guess thats why i ride a 07' SV1000, v-twin sport bike!


love the bike man, $3500 is a steal, but sounds like you live out in BFE or something.


how many miles?

looks like it has alot of little extras!

Nice bike. I see you're into the Hondas. Personally I like older harleys and newer Yamahas. I've been been saving up for an R-1 recently. Is that a dual air horn on the side?

LOL, no I don't live in the sticks and yeah, that's an air horn. I'm not sure about that one[:'(]

It has 18K on it.

This is like the 8th or 9th bike I've owned over the years. Most have been cruisers and 1 sport bike. This is my second 1100 Shadow. Def not the fastest, but it's comfy and rides nice. Yeah, I'm a fan of the Hondas. 1 Suzuki in the mix, the rest have been Hondas.
