My best friend just got herself a Honda Shadoe ACE 750, it's a sweet bike. Been lookin into doin the same for a while, maybe startin on a Shadow as well, or maybe the ol GPz 550, and then movin up to a Sportster or some other Harley. Bikes are freakin sweet...

My dad bought me my TL1000r for my 16th birthday. He has a couple harleys (fat boy, road king classic). Ive put 22,000 miles on my bike and never have had one problem, other than the fork seals from the wheeleys. Ive also had dirt bikes since i was 4. Now I have a yz426, and yz450. I raced regurlaly a few years ago but havent had the time recently.
I started riding in 69 on a little Yamaha 125, moved to a Kawasaki 175, then a Honda 250, a Honda 125, a Suzuki 350DR and got my first Harley last year. Shoulda kept the 350 DR. The Harley was my wife's idea....sort of.
My neighbor gave me a '72 Honda CB450 for free a few years ago and it took a day to get it running and I've put almost 5000 miles on it already with minor problems. It's a nice little bike for daily transportation. My dad bought a '74 CB750 brand new and still has it. Looks like a bike straight out of a 70's biker movie... 6-over forks, weird handle bars, skull/ax behind the seat, 4-into-2 straight pipes. I fell inlove with that 750 the very first time I took it for a ride. Ever since I can remember I've wished of having one just like it. Best sounding bike you'll ever hear, I gaurentee it.
