I, too, rode a Honda shadow. I quickly grew tired of that upright sitting position on classic cruisers. Longer rides made my spine feel every fucking bump.
On a separate note...
Fuck all of those Harley bitches that bought into the lifestyle riding around without helmets on the weekend.
They did try for a lower cost entry model that was more sporty. That didn't Pentwater the market at all. Like..at all at all.
Once these helmetless boomers die off, that company is up shits creek.
Fuck 'em.
