Honda Shadow description

I have had this bike for 2.5 years and put roughly 4500 miles on it in that time never having a problem with it.  I work in NYC and drive every day unless there is snow or ice on the ground, so yes it has been in the rain.  Originally it was a yellow color that Honda had and the previous owner repainted it, so it looks good but you can tell its not original.  It has never been in an accident however in NYC while parked cars have knocked it over.  The only thing that shows is the right hand grip is cracked and should be replaced.  I don't know what else to say about the bike other than it runs great, starts all the time and is a very comfortable ride.  In weather below 55 you need to choke the engine and the colder it gets the more you need to baby the starting procedure.  If you ever rode a bike in the winter you will know that this is normal.  The reason I am offering it at such a low price is that it has a cloudy Tittle.  So you will not be getting a title with the bike however I can prove ownership.  You may want this for parts, and the all work.  The bike can be viewed either in Queens or Manhattan, NYC.  If you are out of state shipping is on you.

Even with the dB-Killer baffle in place peak power is improved, as is mid-range torque with further performance gains available if the baffle is removed.A full race mid-pipe, extracting yet more power is on the way and will be available later in the year. The Yoshimura CB1000R Slip-On, including the supplied heat shield, is over 4kgs lighter than the OE item, the Carbon sleeve, even more so at just 4.65kg.Part Number/Sleeve Type/Weight/RRP including VAT1A0-480-5B50         Stainless Steel           2.61kg                       £712.711A0-480-5B80          Titanium                    2.45kg                        £770.181A0-480-5B80B         Titan Blue                 2.45kg                        £850.651A0-480-5B90          Carbon                      2.35kg                        £896.631A0-480-5B20          Metal Magic               2.61kg                        £793.17         Noise Output (decibels)Standard end can: 94dB    @ 5,000rpmYoshimura EEC Slip-On:  94.5dB @ 5,000rpm(with db-killer in place)

  This weekend, the MotoGP circus makes its way to the United States for round two of the world championship, held at the stunning new Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, the first time the track will host a world championship level motorcycle event. Expect to see the world’s fastest racebikes reach speeds over 200 mph on the 1 km (0.62-mile) back straight, and bring ear plugs — these bikes are loud! Fresh off a 1-2 finish in the season opener in Qatar, Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi are looking to carry the momentum to CotA.

Having a Randy Mamola moment

Thu, 10 May 2012

Back in 1985 Randy Mamola was captured on film performing the most miraculous save of all time, hanging on for dear life as his Honda NSR500 tried to fling him from his seat. Recently, we've seen some impromptu homages to the original with Jonathan Rea at Assen and the near-save from Jakub Kornfeil in the Moto3 race at Jerez. Now we have on-board footage of American racer Genki Hagata calming a high-side at the Infineon Raceway in California.
