I just received my membership card in the mail today, so I guess its time to say hello to everyone I'm Jamie, from Deniliquin on the NSW/Vic border, and I'm the proud owner of my first bike, an 2008 vt400. When I hit 30 I decided I wanted a bike, so started looking at all the lams bikes available. I wanted the shadow the moment I saw it, out of all the lams cruisers they looked the best. However, being a short guy with no experience riding anything bigger than a scooter, decided I should probably start with something a bit smaller like a hyosung gv250 or even a virago. So I got the money together, told the nearest hyosung dealer I was coming to pick up an aquila, then promptly went and bought the vt400 anyway. 3 weeks later and my only regret is that I didn't get a motorbike sooner. I'm not sure if any of your rides go through / near here, but hopefully I can get to one soon. Cheers. Mandatory glamour shots:

Hey ;D Welcome... and from the pictures that's a good looking bike, I too have a VT400 and it's an excellent bike. Just love it I just joined as well and received my membership card in the mail yesterday and got it laminated today PS: I like the removed pillion seat look, I also removed my pillion seat to smooth out the lines of the bike. Welcome & Cheers ;D Pete

Hi Ravana and welcome to the club ;D Seems the 400's are the bike of the moment, yeah I have one too I also live a lot of hours away from anyone in Dubbo but I guess I'm lucky I managed to talk my hubby into buying a bike too so I have someone to ride with. Here's hoping you can catch up with some people though you'll probably be riding with the Vic guys more than the NSW ones where you are. Anyway's if we're ever down that way we'll definately give ya a yell Cheers Anna

Hi ravana and welcome to the Shadow family. Hopefully we will catch up soon for a ride, however the weather here in Vic, or more so in Melbourne has not been ride friendly of late

Welcome Ravana
What a sexy looking bike you got there. My Ida has a twin on here minus the highway bar. I was pretty much like you, looked at the hyosung 650 but went and got the 400 as soon as I saw it and test rode it. Now im blinging her up.
Enjoy
