Well. I am in loooove! Rode the new toy home from Brisbane to Hervey Bay and I am still in love! Wow! how is it that compared to the Virago 250, on the Shadow, which is heavier and wider and sooo much more bike, that I feel and ride more confidently, corner easier and just generally enjoy the ride sooo much more?? Every set of lights that were red, didn't even have to put a foot down, the balance is amazing! Had one stop in Gympie, and the butt wasn't even feeling the miles! LOVE this bike!!  P.S. if case you didn't realise.....I love this bike! |

G'day PurpleMaiden,
I've had mine now for near on 5 years with 67000ks on it and sill love it, could do with the extra power sometimes but even today went out with my son who has a HD Breakout (yes i still talk to him LOL) and his mate who has a Bouly 800 and I had no trouble keeping up

Thanks Ray!. Didn't stop for long at the duck ponds on the north side. Had my niece, (as well as one of her kids and one of mine) driving my car back for me!
Was basically a toilet and smoke stop!! I am sure I will get down that way again, its only just over an hour away!
Tips, hints and advice are always welcome, thanks!
