  |  VL-800 or Honda Shadow? First time rider.
Well, first off, name is Jason. I am a new rider to the streets but have ridden dirt bikes as a young kid. I have been practicing with my father on his BMW 650 for the past two weeks and have caught along rather quickly. Next weekend, I am taking the MSF course and hopefully that will make me good enough to get out on the road. Of course, I am taking my time and taking it slow. I have limited myself to two options on bikes. I am looking at a 2004 Suzuki VL-800 Limited Edition and also a 00 Honda Shadow 600 with 4100miles and Vance and Hines pipes on it. I rode the Suzuki last night and loved the feel of the bike. Question is, do you think $4000 for the vl 800 bike is a good deal? It has 2100 miles on it, one owner and no dings or scratches. Thank you for your input and any help or suggestions will be grateful. Oh, btw, I am 27 and 6’ 215lbs (if that matters)  |
