... just not with the 240. Picked this up for a great deal! '03 Honda 750 Shadow Ace Deluxe w/only 3700 miles and absolutely brand new. Cobra pipes, jet kit, passenger seat with backrest and windshield (both of which I removed ... not a fan). God it's good to be back on 2 again! Sooooo, I'm broke ... again ... but I managed to do a few little things on the 240 such as re-installing the factory gauges and custom painting the bezels on the aftermarkets. I contemplated selling off the current drive-train in prep for a V8 swap, but eh, for now I'll just enjoy the ride - the other one. :bigthumb:

Yeah, I figured you would. :chuckle: ... Just nothing much going on with the 240 and way too much going on with the kids and their costs (braces, summer activities, college, etc.) :crazy: ! Still trying to recover from last years addition to the house! Had to really evaluate where to put my fun-muny lately. Was going to head the direction of an engine swap in the 240, but it's just too much in the way of cost and time right now. So I'll just continue to enjoy it the way it is, and get back on 2 wheels for a while too. :bigthumb:

Well welcome back!

Honda Shadows have always been nice bikes. I put them right up there with Goldwings.

Don't swap the 240. Sell me the 240 so I can take real good care of it, and buy you a shell. Strip it, and do a mega clean V8 swap with tucked harness, and brake booster!

Not a bad idea ... make me an offer and we'll see where it goes from there.

It's an old quote, and my dad still lives by it, "Everything is for sale." No I don't want to sell the car ... but c'mon ... if an offer is right, you never know! ;)

Hehe yeah ..... ah, no. I've already sacrificed a few things I'd like to do on the 240, so this is pretty much just a rider, not a project. :biggrin:
