My brother has a 2005 Honda Shadow 600 with about 3,000 miles he'd like to sell. It's garage kept, stock and dealer serviced. The bike is a beautiful machine and great for cruising around on. I'd be glad to get some pics and details about the bike if anyone's interested... He's just not a motorcycle type of guy and is done with it I think. There isn't a scratch on it and in new condition. I rode it a few miles recently and can vouch for it being a nice bike. It's just not my thing (cruiser) or I'd buy it from him and park it next to my Buell. If anyone's interested, shoot me a PM. |

Here's a couple of pics I got from my brother today. Honda really does make a nice ride. It shift silky smooth, the engine absolutely purrs, and the fit and finish is way better than my beloved Buell.
I am convinced Honda builds a quality scoot since I've still got the 1985 CR80 I learned on over 20 years ago and it still runs like the day it was new even after I beat the crap out of it when I was a kid. |

Let me try that again. I had to compress them so much they look like crap.

I had bought a shadow 600 for my wife to ride but that did not work out. I put it up on Cycle Trader and it sold in about a week. |

Yeah I had to try real hard to keep a straight face when he told me what he wanted for it. I was thinking maybe $2995 would be more like it. I don't think he paid a dime over $5500 for it when it had zero miles on it. It's still sitting in his garage collecting dust. Oh well, guess he'll learn not to go out and buy stuff like that just to be like his big brother. At least he's not in way over his head on it since it's such an inexpensive bike. If anyone wants it for a more reasonable price than he originally told me, let me know. Maybe he's more willing to deal now. |
