Re: a Eureka! rider
Tricycle Squid? Huh. will, we all need our humor I guess.
This looks like a good forum. I look forward to meeting the riders who frequent the site. I ride locally mostly, but my last ride last year was 2 months, and most of the US states.
To the forum admins: Thank you for using free software. I left another forum after a switch to non-free software and forced adverts in posts. I sincerely hope that never happens here.
Thanks all for reading. Here's wishing for good rides, sun and good friends.

Re: a Eureka! rider

What a great looking 1985 Honda Shadow 1100 you have there! I can easily see you take great care of it. How many miles does it have on it?

Re: a Eureka! rider
Thanks Mike:
The bike is just about 50k on it. Mostly my miles since finding it up in northern Oregon. The bike has been changed, now has saddle bags, rider back rest, radio gear, etc. Sadly, I've lost both side covers and haven't been able to locate new ones.
Thanks for the welcome!

Re: a Eureka! rider
Yeah that is one clean Shadow. Those original Shadows are one of my favorite Japanese cruisers. The design is very original and the design stood the test of time very well and it still looks great today!totalmotorcycle wrote:Jaye!
