I just bought a 2002 with 9,500 miles and asked around about them also . Seems they are pretty good running bikes , The power is a little short but not too bad , I have been riding a 1500cc bike and dropped down to 800cc and really not that much of a power drop just higher RPMĀ“s ! So far so good ! The bike feels bigger than the 1100cc Honda Shadows that I have ridden . I will let you know if a problem comes up !
