Honda Shadow
Since recently joining I have been looking at many of the wonderful photos of India. (Still many more to go!)
While we will be proudly using Royal Enfields for our journey around India (we have a Bullet 500) I thought some may be interested in seeing what the 750 Shadow Aero looks like.
The photos are just around our local area and I have used a NZ theme in making it. It's the first time I have tried this but at least it may give you an idea of where we live. Some folks at a Honda forum asked me to put something together so this is what I came up with.
The bike gets around 23 km per litre and is quite easy to ride. Shaft drive.
Regards

Nicely put together, but isn’t the song and natives from Hawai?

Nah... The Kiwi native tribe is called Maori, I believe from Samoan descent... known for those awesome tattoos! They even have a Maori in the cricket team... Ross Taylor.

Re: Honda Shadow
Yes, tmookherjee is correct. Maori make up about a quarter of the population.
There are a number of different tribes and a Maori King which represents them.
I hope to be able to take some photos like the ones I see on this site. They are absolutly amazing!

Re: Honda Shadow
beautiful video woodboats, loved it.

Would love to see more of your country, know more about it; not just the scenic places, music, but the people, their culture, their lifestyles, everything...and i am counting on you for that.

Yup. Awesome tattoos! And their Maori hakas are popular all round the world, courtesy their rugby team!

Also, Well done with the video!

Re: Honda Shadow
If that is what you drive, I think ThunderBird or Avenger is what would interest you more than a RE Bull.
