Wanted to introduce myself. I recently moved to Illinois, USA (central region). I have a variety of different type (and manufacturer) of motorcycles. Bought my first Brittish bike a couple of years ago, with the plan to finally start learning how to care for them, rather than just having a dealer look after them. I have learned a little sorting my Commando 850, but have always wanted a Black Shadow.
Well, I just completed a purchase of a 1950 bike that has been with the previous owner since the early 70's. The bike has been well cared for, and ridden often. It is being shipped the end of this month. I am super excited about riding this dream bike. Less excited to tell my wife what I have done!
Looking forward to lots of learning and enjoying this new "old" breed.
