Hi,
I'm new to this forum. Currently I ride a 2001 Honda Shadow 1100. It's a great bike and the Shadows don't have any problems. They are considered bullet proof. Not that they never break, they just don't have any common problems.
My son has a HD Dyna Convertable that a friend wants him to sell for him. I'm thinking about buying it either to resell or keep. I have always liked Harleys and would really like to keep this one. If I do, I would eventually have to sell my Honda. My problem with this is the reputation Harley had with reliability. I can't beleive that is still a problem but I don't want to have to worry about breaking down when I'm out riding or having to spend a fortune in repairs to stop oil leaks.
If I buy this bike, I would be getting it for a third or less than the going price. I can't go wrong on it and it doesn't have any problems that I can find. It's a 1994 with 9,ooo miles on it.
Any comments would be appreciated. By the way, I put about 5,000 miles per year on my bike. I ride almost daily, at least a little bit. I can't ride it to work though because I work out of my car.
Oh, I use Moblil 1 red cap in my Honda and would probably use that in the HD too.
One more question too This bike was called a Dyna Glide Convertable. What is a convetable?
Thanks and hope to be a HD rider soon.
