Whoa, never seen a full on batwing fairing on an M109R before, pretty slick... nice collection you got goin there Yes the 109 is sweet. I flew out to Seattle on a Saturday morning second week of November and bought it, and rode back 1600 miles on a weekend. I would have been back in Colorado on Sunday night but decided to stop and see my sister in Utah, and then got caught in a snow storm because I stayed to long at her house. I was back home 3:00 PM Monday. By the way I also have a Honda 2004 VTX1300 that I've been fixing up - bought it as a fixer upper. Now I have to sell the VTX1300 because I bought the 109. As they say I'm bike poor - but I'm keeping the Nighthawk, it's such a great bike, and has always been reliable and strong running. |

The VTX looks pretty good for a fixer-upper.

I do like those Sabres. I had lusted after one of those for a long time before I discovered the "standard" bike....

I think I confused the 1100 for the VTX.

Yes your right - I didn't post the VTX 1300 because I didn't have any pictures.
This might be a little late to show pics because I just sold the VTX 1300 last week. The day I sold it I took some pics, before and after.

Beautiful bikes all...although that gorgeous period correct 550 NH with the Hondaline backrest and (Vetter?) fairing is exceptionally sweet!  |
