You want a motorcycle that can carry as much stuff as possible. You'll find that out fast once you buy one and use it as your main vehicle. The first thing you'll do is wear a backpack, and then add a rack to the back and a sissy bar, or hard saddle bags, with a duffle bag over the top of that. It just blows my mind how many bikes are sold with no carrying capability included at all.
Agree I bought a used Shafow with Honda factory saddle bags. I took them off but after a few trips they went back on there is no where to carry anything on this bike. Unlike my Hayabusa I can put small stuff under rear seat cover. This is a great little bike for cruising around.

Put a duffle bag on top that sits over the rear seat and rack, and a cardboard box in that to hold the shape, and I can haul 1 to 2 weeks worth of groceries.

I believe that was the order in which I did exactly what you posted!

I heard the tires have tubes? Like mountain-bike bicycles? These need to be Tubeless!
What were the name of those aftermarket pipes at 2:21??

1. It desperately wants to be a Harley...
I actually like the shadow and even I have to agree.
HONDA SAYS "IT'S ALL IN YOUR MIND" & IN. REALITY, HONDA IS HONDA....
Except that if it were a harley, I wouldn't buy it.
It's what a Harley should be.
