how many mpg do you get with that baby girl?

[cybrmniac]

@redneck500 not as much as you'd expect probably around 35 but with the jet kit and exhaust thats not just terrible, she runs pretty good

[cybrmniac]

the choke was off... i think the carbs are jetted, i've been comparing my mpg to those on the forums and it looks like its jetted, and i haven't ridden any other shadow 1100s but i know when i turn the throttle it's got plenty of power not to mention it doesn't lose any power over 85 mph like i've heard from ppl with factory shadows i know its still pullin hard past 105 or so(thats the highest i've gotten it)... and it doesn't have an air cleaner on the side

[cybrmniac]

oh and the bars and pegs were on the bike when i got it... everything on it was, but i think the setup is around 300 if you go with cobra bars and kuryakyn pegs... but there's also moustache bars cheaper that i think actually look better, but they don't protect your legs if you lay it down

1100's sound awful but they work very well,my friends call mine the Butcher cause it kills hogs

WHAT YEAR IS THIS?

[redneck500]

@chrisolava112066 I wish I got that. I think my carb needs cleaning on my 1500 vulcan because I only get about 15 LOL im suppose to get like 35

[chrisolava112066]

@redneck500 It all depends sometimes I get 50 mpg and some times I get 35. 50 mpg are on the high way at normal speeds 55-75 mph , when around town I do about 35 mpg

i have to say, honda shadows are some beautiful bikes. i have the opportunity to buy a used sabre 1100 from an individual, in practically new condition, with a little over 6,000 miles, for $3500. part of me is really, REALLY wanting to buy it. but, i don't know. it's been 20 years since i've even been on a bike.

That's a Memphis Shades Fats windshield. Those are expensive! I have one on my bike, it's cool you can order replacement plastic by itself so you can have whatever size and color you want.
