My wife told me today that in the spring I can get myself a new bike and gave me the option of keeping my current bike. So I decided not to argue with her and said OK. I thought about getting a Harley Dyna but after a small test ride I don't care for the weight of a bare bones model, I have ridden goldwings and Moto Guzzis that seems to weigh less. So I have narrowed it down to either a Honda Shadow or a Yamaha Star.
I have been looking at the v-star 650s but I have heard that they loose quite a bit of power once you get them to about 70 mph, for those of you who have one is that so? I would rather have a 950 or 1100 but at this time they seem to be out of my price range, I can't exceed $4000. I'm hoping to find a dealer who is willing to let me test ride a 650 so I can find out for myself. As far as the shadows go, any input from shadow owners would be appreciated. Today I was at a Honda dealer who will have a '06 shadow 750 ready for sale by the end of this next week and will let me test ride it next weekend but I really don't know much about their performance.
Thanks all
