    Sweet! I'm guessing this one came with the bags? Can't believe you can pick one up for only 18k kms.

    Yes, it was a complete bike in nice shape but needs a little TLC. The original owner never rode it. I have it in a million pieces right now. Polishing everything, replacing the windscreen with a custom one, and adding about $$$$$$$$ worth of chrome accessories and a stereo.

    Cant post pics here, cant figure it out. You would not believe what he let it go for.

    You're a lucky guy, I would've picked it up myself. lol
    Get a batwing fairing.
    If you're looking for a stereo, don't go with Memphis shades.
    Here's these guys, I heard they're great.

    Hi everyone. As a 'Shadow Rider' since 1989, I just may be the Big Daddy. My 1986 VT1100C has only 120,000km which is well under 5000 per season. I'm putting a plug in here to sell it which may be a little tacky. At least you readers know that they are great bikes. The 86 has a wonderfully contoured seat, nice rumbly dual exhaust and no real need for any upgrades. It has always been stored indoors and is in no need of any kind of restoration. Paint and chrome are in beautiful condition. I'm in Barrie, PM me if anyone would like some recent pics. The bike has blackwall Dunlops, not white letters at the moment. It was in the For Sale ads, but I deleted it. Best one I've seen, and I've had it 23 years.

    Let's not forget the 67 hp and 72 ft lbs of torque. Twin discs up front, twin carbs, 2 plugs per cylinder, factory centre stand and tach, fuel gauge, temp gauge, etc.

    thanks, -Al

    Just curious as to where you found the one-up seats for the shadow. I can only find 1 piece 2-ups??? Wifeys Spirit has a home made single seat and realy lacks padding and comfort. Ok for short rides, but sucks anything over an hour..

    will there be a shadow ride soon?
    I’d rather be riding my motorcycle thinking about God than sitting in church thinking about my motorcycle.

    Well there's Port Dover next week. We can always do a shadow ride, I don't mind. There's lots of Shadow owners but most don't come on GTAM. lol

    Looks like I will be rolling to dover with a pair of Harleys, a VTX1300R, my Aero, and maybe a 2006 aero. Just remember to leave EARLY or else you are parking outside town. We are meeting up in burlington at 0730.

    The mustang seats are two pieces. You can leave the rear seat off converting it to a solo seat. I did that and just put a fender bib on the rear fender to make the rear mount hole more acceptable
