This is Dave's Honda Shadow. He picked it up for £400 and some favours. He will be doing a little modifying including getting rid of the seat.

hoping to use a small pad type seat with a flat bobber style rear mudgaurd, the rear light will then move down with the numberplate. looking for some yokes to put the fork rake back to normal and have smaller risers with the wide bars, then every bracket and part that dosent need to be there will go, less is best. looking to get a bobber style hack without going silly in the money department. keep thinking of black with some pinstripes but spray cans are cheaper. BikerGran...... i could ride with no seat.. with my arse no one would be any the wiser. |

Hmm, let me check my pockets. Nope. Sorry. Maybe there's one down the back of the sofa.

On Dave's? Raked aftermarket yokes. He's looking for a standard set to return it to normal if you know of some.

well, ive been busy today, cut all the lugs off the back of the frame and cut the mudgaurd to fit. being a mono shock i couldn t carry the mudgaurd any further round, i ve ordered seat springs and bracket so its just mocked up for now. also have a sparto rear light on order. im seriously thinking of a hand shift with foot clutch,i held the 8 ball gear knob near the tank to see what it looked like.
