I used to live in Kendall, right near the town and country mall. Marsbar used to have $0.05 Killian drafts on Tuesday nights, good thing I lived close!

Florida all my life. Started in Ft Lauderdale but now live in Tampa. Most of my family still lives down in Miami/FT Lauderdale so I make it down there every now and again. Gald to see another Floridian on the board.

Nice looking bike.sounds like a fair price, that is about what they are going for on Ebay.

Judging by the pic, I think the bike may be a little big for ya. But if you think you can reach the pegs and the handlebars, then I say go for it. :crazy3:
Sounds like a pretty reasonable deal.

Hello... I used to live in Hollywood years ago but decided to move after the rioting broke out in Miami, I'll never forget how close it came to my area. My daughter was 3 back then. My family lives in Ocala & I'm in Jax. I have a 2001 ACE, are those stock pipes? My Shadow had a set of nice cobra pipes when I bought her. Whoever had her b4 me really took good care of her. I 've had her for over a year & she still rides like a dream...although I had to personalized her with a new mustang seat, new grille, hi-way pegs & saddlebags & yes I added fringe grips :happy: .... my sweetie bought me a throttle lock for those long rides! I've tried to post a picture but I can't seem to figure it out. I have b4 & after pic.'s Id like to share.:embarasse

WHOO HOO!!!!! I'm going up north tomorrow to go pick up the bike... 2002 750 Shadow ACE... Some extra chrome exactly 3000 miles sissy bar and the rest is stock...
I'm going crazy!!!! Rented a truck to drive it down but can't figure out how to get it on the back of the truck...
Man, get the bill of sale, put a home made temp tag on it and ride the hell out of it on the way home.

you could rent a ramp from homo depot or lowes I believe. they will attach to any truck bed. ride the fucker up and in.

lol.. i actually did this before i read the post.. rented the ramp for 5.00.... just an update for you guys... i'm am the proud owner of a 2002 Honda Shadow (3000 miles) unfortunately though the bike is stuck about 100miles away from me (in west palm beach)... I can't ride it (no tag) and the flat bed i rented was too freaking short to carry it home... So i'm either going to call Uhaul and rent a truck or a trailer...
THE BIKE IS DOWN IN MIAMI!!!!! WHOO HOO!!!!
Just noticed this what is the difference betweens the difference makes
i.e. ss750 ss750a ss7750cd...etc..? How do i know which one i have?

Man, is everyone either from or going to Fl.
I grew up in West Palm Beach until I moved to Ky for college

I have some friends and family that would ride it home for you and they could care less if it had tags, bill of sale or if you could prove it was yours.:wink_2:
On second thought they would probably just steal it.:laugh: :laugh:
