oldgoat Posted May 11, 2013 Share #1 Posted May 11, 2013 well today kevin aka leadwolf56 and his better half. and there 2 friends brought stella a 2000 Honda shadow ace to my front door. I must say I am excited as a kid at Christmas time. the bike was well taken care of. the service these people did for me was awesome. I bought the bike a while back kevin and sue stored it and brought it to me. but old age is getting to us all.. kevin forgot the title . will fedex it to me. should be ready to ride by next weekend. if he ships that title out asap LOL. I am ready for the road and some 2 wheel riding . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terros Posted May 11, 2013 Share #2 Posted May 11, 2013 It is great to have a "new" bike", doesn't matter how old it is. Take the time to ride around a while to get use to it and then just keep going. Good Luck Terros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leadwolf56 Posted May 11, 2013 Share #5 Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) We just made it home from IL. James is very happy with the bike. I'll see if I can get some pics uploaded. We appreciated James buying us lunch at the Rootbeer Stand. We wish him many miles of happiness with "Stella". Oh yeah, I'll get the title out right away.....lolol.

We've received a lot of help and now do what we can to help others. I think Stella has found a good home, I'm sure James will take good care of her.
