I'm currently riding a 2006 black-on-black Gold Wing. Black pipes, black everything. No Chrome.

My windshield is a BaggerShield that I keep adjusted down to its lowest setting--it's about 4" worth of windscreen. I've got about $12,000 worth of aftermarket accessories on the bike now.

My first "big" bike was a 1995 Honda Shadow American Classic Edition, or Shadow ACE. Hence my screen name.

I also have an “After-Market” windshield on Blue. It is made by “Memphis Fats”. The botton 4” are tinted the same blue as the bike.

My first bike was a 1974 Honda CB360, green with white stripes on the tank.

I rode that bike all over southern California, Sand Diego, Tijuana, Big Bear Lake, Palm Springs, Las Vegas and environs.

When I was transferred from 29 Palms Marine Corps Base back east to MCB Albany GA for more schooling, I had the Honda Dealer crate the bike up for shipping back east.

I contacted a shipping company in Palm Springs to pick it up after I left and that was the last I saw of my bike.

It was never picked up. The agent died of a heart attack, the shipping company closed the office for lack of business and I never got a refund.

About 9 months later I called the Honda dealer in Yucca Valley and inquired if the bike was still there, and he said yes, it was crated and siting in the back of the lot. I was in Denver at the time and told him I would try and get someway to have it picked up but never could.

So I suppose he finally claimed it as abandoned on a mechanic’s lien and that was that.............
