Wow! This is the first time I have seen this post. I guess my mom was right when she said I would go blind if I kept doing that unmentionable thing. Well, my name is Jason Ronson, hence the lame user name, but someone from work started calling me that, and unfortunately it stuck. The low expectation vibe it sends out is right up my banditalley. I am 32 and live in northeast georgia about an hour from atlanta. I have been getting injured on motorcycles since I was a wee lad. i.e. broken nose, slashed throat, etc.
I have owned Honda shadows ever since I was 16, other than my dirtbikes, but I started getting annoyed with my last 93 spirit. Acting like a big wind sail is not my idea of a comfortable riding position. I will say this about the shadows though. They are bullet proof. I have never had any problems from any of my shadows. Routine maintenance is all that was required.
I wanted something a little bit more fun to ride so I picked up a 99 B12. What a change! It took a while to get the mechanical problems worked out, but with this sites help, it now runs great.
Now if my wife would release her vise like grip from my beanbag and let me ride more often, life would be grand.
