Think Shadow ACE and Dragstar Classic is top 1 and 2 popular in this forum

Tats becos there is local agents to look after them plus with everyone speculate how good the bikes is, rational will be most pple are more likely to go for those seem popular, if given a choice, some might just go for unique.

Is Shadow 400 = Shadow Ace?

 

What's the difference between Shadow Ace and Shadow Special Edition? Saw some 2A shadows with fat fat forks, what version is that?

 

I didn't know got so many shadows for 2A! I thought only got Shadow 400 for 2A.

:sweat:

Hi,

 

I just read another thread on the different shadows. Gets me exicted man!!

 

Now I know the Special Edtn not so special hehe, got small forks also. So the one I like is the ACE, big fork, 1 big exhaust!!!

 

My only concern is the handling. Will small sized pple have problem handling that monster bike esp. u-turns? I'm riding the small brother of Shadow 400 now and look forward to riding the big brother hehe ..

handling is not a problem for the big shadow, just ride the normal way and don't try to speed and sqeeze in the begining stage :smile:

Hello r you refering to me that fat arse??? :cheeky: :cheeky: Jus kidding lah...but it's tru that i am fat... :cheeky:

 

OK, final drives (shaft or chain) will make a diff in speed, engine brake effectiveness, response timing. For chain drive bike, we can play ard with the front and rear sprocket ratio to compensate the pickup or the top speed. Shaft can't. But shaft got a very heavy engine brake factor. Very effective. People did say that chain is better in handling speed and better (lighter) response. BUT i feel other wise. I feel shaft is more effective, cos it is directly coupled to the final mech drive. Which can be seen in the engine brake effectiveness. That mean the engine is directly affecting the final drive which translate to the rear wheel. That mean if the engine start to drag for speed thru the gearbox then to the rear wheel, shaft driven bike should be faster. For th shaft drive theory, can any expert correct me if i am wrong of the saying. Thanks in advance.

 

The other fatcor is the gearbox construction, gear ratios of each gearing maybe varies......

 

Bike condition too. Any mod done to the fuel jetting system? Many more factor loh..

 

Also the rider got the balls of steel to squeeze the juice out of the bike or not. :cheeky: :cheeky:

There is a vintage one over at Ang Mo Kio Autopoint 2 5th Storey. First shop before Seng Kwang.

 

If you are looking for newer model, 900cc version is coming soon at Evershine. Do call and check with them. Comes in classic and tourer version.

 

:goodluck:
