More than likely a US bike that kept the displacement under 700 cc to avoid tariffs during the time. A few bikes USA got were configured only for the US.

I think in summary, there is more to do and the cost is up. There will likely be some variances from shop to shop on some things like indicator lights, tire age, plate location, exhaust etc. I wouldn’t want to try and get a machine safetied that has custom work or mods like a tail tidy etc...

No more Jack ass clips on TikTok of folks jumping their atv over a bonfire of skids? Those always start with the phrase, “ Hold my beer!” I understand why they took things as far as they did but, now I’m worried to wave at LE while operating my riding mower with an Ultra in my hand. 🤷‍♂️

Maybe it’s the long winter and bmw vibes affecting my point of view from being judged or not fitting in. Not sure why I feel insecure when reflecting on it?

Walk into a dealer and how is your comfort level? Do you feel welcome or invited? Even as a Harley owner, I felt judged. You ride a Sporty? What year? Oh, yeah. Walk the showroom and there is more trinkets and bobits than Lundy’s lane and I can’t imagine anyone actually purchasing it...

Push a GS1300 around and sit on it, it can be intimidating. But, they are the pinnacle of adv machines. The HD is very competitive when stacked up to it and others in the same specs. The size, power and dare I say ergos are actually decent. I’m just not an adv guy. However, in a few...

I think they need to hire some folks from Triumph or Indian and reinvent themselves. I root for HD but, I was also a long time Leaf’s fan (divorced them in 2009). Their ADV bike is actually pretty good but, I’m not in that market yet. Those entry bikes look terrible and Sportster...

The silver lining for this weather is enjoying the hot tub. The missus doesn’t enjoy the wind or rain but, clear and cold the tub is a great way to melt away the winter blues. It’s no substitute for riding but, it helps!

@TK4 Thanks for contribution to this thread and others. Really appreciate if you visit for the motorcycle threads and chime in. The political threads will die down and was the warmer weather approaches, there will be more discussion motorcycle related. Cheers!

Kawi’s tag line, let the good times roll still applies. Doesn’t say if you are pushing it or not.

100% cars fault. They should not enter the hov lane until the enter/exit allows. However, I’m always very cautious when there is a speed differential between lanes. When one lane is at a stand still and there is another moving, I’m anticipating the possibility of a vehicle attempting to...

Wind gust out the Niagara way are just too much to enjoy riding in.

Sipping Canadian whiskey while listening to the rolling thunder is helping with the weather blues.

FIL has a small one that manages branches the thickness of your thumb. Anything larger and it chokes. End up spending more time pruning the branches to make them easier to chip then actually running them through the chipper. He has an old furnace oil tank on a trailer frame and wheels it to...

Seems like the longest winter ever. I’m itching to get out for a ride but, I’m not freezing my balls off. Rain forecast is discouraging. Praying to the sun gods for some relief soon!

Didn’t think they offerred those in North America markets. There are a few variants of the Shadow in 2007. Same liquid cooled 750 engine and different seats, fenders, tank etc. I could be wrong. Wasn’t aware of any v-twin 600 cc Honda cruiser for that year/model.

This looks like a Shadow Spirit and typically a 750 and believe the mileage is 16,100 kms. Not a bad bike or price

Winter beater? 😝

Zack just did a daily rider episode for the 450.

When in Rome……and free…….
