hi debs,just bought an 05 M800 intruder,awsome looking bike,pulls well plenty of grunt, real headturner,very comfortable, nice big soft seat, cruises beautifully,feet forward takes bit of getting used too though.Keep it clean and dry though as corrosion is this bikes enemy,brakes are ok ,but all i will sayis give yourself plenty of time to brake .Its a big bike so you won,t be able to filter through traffic very easily,hte shaft drive is good, but keep your throttle delivery smooth going round corners. hope this is helpful. Big A.
