I just got a Shadow 125 and it´s not bad. Looks good and big, sounds okay, plenty of street cred and nice and comfy to ride. Back end isn´t very positive, likes to fishtail mid corner but the bikes well balanced enough to cope with it. Engines a bit revvy for a custom bike, but then it is only little. Don´t buy it if you want to get good at handling bikes, get an Aprilla RS125 or something like that.
