No la! You fixed your speedo already? Shadow at that age can still do 130km/h . You can hit 120km/h with little difficulty. Ride out with us someday and we can access your speed . Do get back to Rosli on this. Ask him to test ride. See ya!

yeah..old bikes do vibrate....but is your milage more than 200k km??

if it is a major overhaul may be required..

but anyway..i am facing the same problem on gear 2 and 3...i think the clucthes may need some attention...IMHO

Perhaps you can get Rosli to check your clutch plates too, the bike should be able to go beyond slightly over 120kph.
