I've been riding this vt1100 for sooooo long that think I might just fall off if I tried another one. I do always remember my 64 norton atlas. That bike was so powerful and so fast. Too bad about throwing the rod...

Buy one then.

My fiance would love one of the Classics. It'd make a neat, easy bobber.

you may find you are in for a rude awakening somewhere along the line.. if it is made by man it will break down, and there are many here who have found that just because the bike is a Shadow and it's made by Honda makes little difference to that truth

That's crap man. The tech support forum here is strictly threads asking how to perform bolt-on mods and lights. Even those of us still running 80's Shadows have never had to do anything but put gas in them. We post project threads and engine rebuild how-to's just so you Enfield guys don't feel so bad.

I've owned all of the major brands, and a couple of the lesser known builders. The only motorcycle that ever broke down and left me on the side of the road was a 2 year old Honda Spirit 1100.

If you aren't riding Enfield, you aren't a biker.

That's a pretty cool bike, I've never heard of it. Just saw this on Jay Leno's Garage about the Royal Enfield.
