Reviews on the honda shadow 750?

I'm thinking about bying a 2006 honda shadow 750 for $5000. It has 3000 miles on it. Good deal?

Those shadow aero 750's are really good bikes. I've got a friend who just bought a 2006 with less than 1500 miles on it for 4000. He got it on ebay. He had to spend 500 bucks to have it shipped to him but it's in like new condition. I rode it and it rides awesome. If you have the cash I'd try and talk the guy down some if I were you. You'll love that bike if you get it.

I have a 2007 Honda Shadow Aero 750. It is a great bike. I recommend it highly. If you need any additional information get on the Shadow Aero 750 forum. They are a great bunch of people and they know everything about the aero.

Compare prices and condition, including any accessories added after purchase. Low mileage is not the only issue for condition.

Try trader.com, and all the local bike dealers web sites to compare prices of used bikes that are the same. A dealer's used bike may have a short warranty.

I say this because I think $5000 sounds a bit high, but this bike could have accessories that make this a better deal. Don't be afraid to negotiate price down from asking. You want some money left for you to buy safety gear.

Honestly? For 5 grand I'd pick up a used Sportster.Last a lot longer.
