2004 Honda Shadow Sabre
Can anyone give me some pro and con about the 2004 Honda Shadow Sabre? Does it fit for a beginer? I'm 5'8 and 165 lbs and worry about handle this bike. Thanks for your input.

For you, I would recommend a VLX 600 or 750 Spirit instead.
I ride a '03 Sabre. It's not a beginner bike. It goes about 600 lb. On the highways you will be fine, but in slow traffic and parking lots, you'll feel like you're wrestling a bear. Just my opinion, but I ride one.  Rocksolid |

I went from a CB 650 to a 1100 Shadow Spirit and there is a hugh difference in weight between the two bike. I am also 6'2 and 200 lbs. I am not sure I would have felt comfortable riding the shadow as my first bike.

It is a very nice bike which was in my final round of choice like the one or other premium motorcycle but I went for the 2004 Honda ABS ST1300 and didn't regret it. But for a beginner it might be a little bit too much.
