I ride a Honda Shadow VT600, 2000 model. Bought it in 2007 with 4, 000 miles on it. Sometimes people call it a "starter bike, " or a "beginner motorcycle, " as here.

I always laugh. Over the past fourteen years, now, I've ridden that motorcycle to 150, 300 miles. I've been from SC to California twice, north to Canada, south to Key West, into the midwest, and to major beaches on the east coast countless times. In other words, I've ridden my little 600 coast to coast and border to border.

I've never trailered the bike anywhere. I ride it there. I've never owned another motorcycle. I'm now 71. This summer I'll be riding from Murphy to Manteo, NC, and touring the state of Kentucky. Who knows about next year.

Beginner bike? Ha ha.

I'm 72 and have been riding since I was 15. I have had several different shadows and have loved everyone of them. I like the shadow because it is heavy enough not to be twitchy but light enough to be manageable. It isn't as fast as some bikes but it is quicker than traffic. I'm 5'5" tall and can easily flat foot this bike

I bought mine 21 years ago. Still looks good and runs great. Only 1 repair. The starter switch. If I had stored in inside it probably wouldn’t have had the issue. The odometer button went out a couple of years ago. Unable to switch to trip milage. So I have to remember the milage when I fill up. Oh and one accident. An oncoming suv turned left right in front of me. Bent the forks slightly but took it to the Honda dealer and they straightened it back out. Replaced the stock pipes with side cuts. It looks and sounds like a Harley sportster. This is better than a beginner bike, it’s a great bike for life.

I’m a beginner and just purchased a 2005 Shadow. Haven’t driven a bike in 22yrs. Always wanted this bike, even back in the 90s. Good to finally hear someone say that it’s a good beginner bike. Even better to own my dream machine.

The shadow is ridiculous, I’ve dropped it, I’ve hit a minivan at 35, it’s been dumped riding in the rain, it’s held up through all of it it’s great. And just cause it’s a 750 doesn’t mean you have to use it all. Just ride your own ride

Just bought my first bike, a 2004 Shadow Sabre 1100. I honestly can't see getting another one right now. Smooth ride, easy to work on and didn't kill me on price. I am having a ball on it.

I went from riding an 1100 Shadow for 15 years to a 750 Shadow for a second bike I got cheap and it was like riding a mini bike, so light and small. Now I have the 1300 VTX and that's perfect for me. Hondas are great bikes, much like Suzukis, Yamahas, and Kawasakis.

I'd like to throw in a special mention for Yamaha vstar line, shaft drive makes for some low maintenance fun.
