98 honda shadow bobber
Year: 1998
Model: shadow vlx
engine size: 600cc
Miles: 22,xxx
Mods: 12" ape hangers from stateline choppers
mustang seat but has a small tear
lowered front and rear (comes with hardtail strut but bike currently has stock shock and spring but spring has been cut, sits almost as low as it did with the hardtail but rides much smoother)
+6" throttle cable, i would recommend getting the longer clutch cable as well, the stock one works but is a little stretched to fit.
Smoked tail light, and no blinkers or mirrors, the bike is set up to be real old school.
vance and hines slash cuts.
THE BAD:
The bike has been rattle canned satin black and needs to be redone, dosen't look terrible but dosen't look good either.
Small tear in the seat as stated above, no blinkers currently on the bike but are included, tires have some dry rot but have never leaked or anything the side walls just have some cracks, which sucks because the bike has some real nice avon vemon tires on it. could use a new chain in the near future.
The bike is perfect for shorter riders, I'm 6'1" and feel a little bit big on it since i put the ape hangers on. Bike used to have a straight drag bar on it and was a little more comfortable for me.
all and all its a pretty sweet looking/sounding bike that gets right around 60mpg, but i've had this bike for about 4 1/2 years and picked up something else....looking mainly for a trade but cash talks. since i have to put a price i will say $2,500 but like i said more interested in trades...fox body, camaro, honda/acura, dsm i don't really care just throw me some offers bike just sits most of the time. will have pics posted when i get home from work but if you want some now text me at 262-325-9780 and i will text you some pics.
