Nice mate :) Buy shares in a polish company now.
How many K's you done on her and whats she like in the tighter stuff?
Hows ground clearance in the corners?
Thing is, I love corners and I've heard they touch down real early???
A 240 section rear sounds cool. You don't even need the side stand do you? :)

NIce steed, they look nice, the only thing I am not sure about is that front faring thing around the head light.

It's a great looking bike - but not for me. Mind you, cruisers is general don't cut it for me now.
After test-riding a few bikes, I'm learning that one bike does not fit all. For some stupid reason, I always believed that a "good bike" was sufficient for everyone's needs lol :dodge:

As long as you're happy with. That's all that matters.

Only just over 100kms so far, so have yet to try it out around the real tight stuff. This style is definitely vastly different to ride than the Gixxer. It is surprisingly easy to ride and corners well for such a tank.
Yes the old boots may lose a bit of rubber shortly!! It's one of the most fun bikes I have ridden - it just makes me grim big time - and it suits my height and weight well.
... and yeah it sits up real well at slow speed when I used to get the wobbles on the my past bikes. :scooter:

Nice machine, Toaster. These are the sort of bikes that look average in a picture but once you see them in the flesh, they look great.

Yeah the Shadow looks great! Are you tempted?? I just love the new bike, it seems more fun to ride than the Gixxer (at legal speeds).

Yes, I certainly am. However there's a certain discrepancy between my bank balance and the cost of a Shadow.

I am quite happy for people to borrow money to buy bikes.... although my area is more in the >$2million mark.

Cashflow lending yes.... but it's complicated. Will explain over a beer sometime.
Health is okay, they sent me a reminder the visit for my next lots of tests, so I have hidden it away for now.... :shifty:

Actually quite well with a wide rear tyre. The front tends to snowplow its way through.
