CB 900

I decided against the CB 900 (it was a C not an F) and have decided to buy a 2006 Shadow Spirit 750. Some of you are probably against this but I just can't get over how good they look and it's an easy bike to ride.

Any comments?

Hmm...that 900 Custom was a nice bike with that dual range transmission. A good long distance tourer. Can't say that I know anything about the Spirit.

yes, a nice bike and the one I was looking at has the full fairing, radio, storage, etc and has the luggage rack and backrest that adjust for passenger and/or rider. It's in fantastic condition but he wants $4500 for it and I found one on EBay that looked just like it that had a minimum bid of $2K and no one bid on it.

The Spirit is a cruiser that looks like a Harley Sportster, but it's a Honda, therefore more reliable. Some say it's not good for long trips but I will probably never take a trip longer than a couple of hundred miles on it anyway. Longer trips are more comfortable in the SUV or my wife's MINI Cooper convertible.

I find the CB900C to be pretty fast and good for cruising. I took the fairing and trunk off of my 82 and removed the headers for a stock (hard to find)4 into 4 system. All bikes are cool as long as you ride them. :)
