Hey Maurice

I'm thinking about getting my first motorcycle liked the look of a Honda Phantom Shadow. More of a cruise style but wandered if you had any advice on bikes still.

I was looking to get a slim body bike as the traffic in London gets worse and worse yearly. So I'd love a compact bike that has excellent maneuvarability but is not a scooter.

I cycled to work for years but have re-injured my knee so have been unable to for 2 months now and it's not looking likely my knee can hack it anymore.

Sorry I'm asking the question here. Don't mean to hijack a thread. Your build looks great for a first time. Did I see legs added to your steel?

I do not know much about modern motorbikes as my age makes me shudder at the rubbish that is on the market. I have yet to see a modern bike which looks right or even handles as a motorbike should. Ungainly, heavy and no styling are just three of the adjectives that come to mind.

As to the comment about my 3rd lap steel, I think lezss said the better
