What's in my Garage? 1978 TA, 2000 Shadow,1984 Voyager (new project)

Tom's Story

I have been riding for over 30 years now. I usually ride solo and enjoy the sound of the road. I am not one to plan a ride too often. I usually saddle up and head out on a whim. I have a 2000 Shadow Spirit 1100 with almost 20,000 miles on it. I purchased it new in Feb, 2001. I have not had any problems with this bike besides periodic maintenance. I have some mods on it like a Memphis Shades screen, soft bags, fog lights, Hard Krome slip ons,and a new idea i had: powder coated heat sheilds and cylinder cooling fins. They are red with alot of silver metal flake. They have been on for over a year now and still look great. I may be the first to try this??????
Ive rode in CA,FL,GA,IL,TN,SC,NC. Ive also tamed the Dragon.I have never trailored my bike and dont expect to either.
See you on the road.....

Sharp looking Shadow. Nice idea on the paint trim. Don't worry about planning trips, just post some of them after the ride.
