Honda Shadow description
After I purchased it I took the time to restore this bike in order to give it a worry free, solidly reliable and trustworthy commuter machine reputation (I ride year round as long as no ice on roadway). Turns out that it's way more then just a great commuting cruiser! Bike is REALLY fun to ride and has a great tone both on and off throttle (thanks to the Cobra system). I find it an easy ride with a more than comfortable rider seat -- can easily ride several hundred miles in a day without your bum getting tired.
Intensive preventative maintenance performed at 17230 miles included: - Replaced ALL wheel bearings and seals, - Replaced swing arm bearings and seals, - Replaced steering head bearings and seals, - ALL water hoses and water seals and reservoir tank replaced, used Genuine Honda antifreeze - Lip seals replacedon final drive, gear & bearings inspected, measured w/in spec - R&R Forks - flushed, cleaned, reassembled with new bushings, tube and dust seals, (refilled with AMSOIL 10w suspension oil) - Approximately 2500 miles later drained & refilled forks w/ AMSOIL 5w (lighter ride), - Radiator drained, flushed and all fins carefully straightened, - Tire valve stems replaced with 90-degree metal stems, - Rear turn signals have polished aluminum bracket extensions to fit saddlebags, - Passenger foot pegs relocated onto custom made stems to allow passenger more comfortable leg position (knees do not bent as much now). Foot rests can easily be moved back to original position in a few moments with just pliers (for cotter pin). - Willie & Max rear saddlebags and fork bag, - Cobra exhaust pipes and carburetor jet kits installed, - Cobra driveshaft chrome cover, - Two tone air horns, - Oils changed regularly (< 2000 miles) using only AMSOIL products (filter, engine oil, gear oils, and fork oil). Last engine & final gear change at 21151 miles. - New Pirelli tire on front at 19612 miles, - Unmounted Pirelli rear tire also included in sale (current tire still sufficient tread life).
