I bought my Phantom about a month and a half ago, and put almost 700 miles on her. I ride in nice weather, cold weather, rain, cities and highways and she's been great in every condition. This is my fourth motorcycle (my previous bikes were a 600 Shadow, a 2004 Triumph Speedmaster and a 2006 Triumph Daytona 675) and of the bunch this might be my favorite. It's easy to ride, well balanced, handles very well, very comfortable and has just enough power to keep me from getting bored. The styling of this bike gets a lot of attention, too. I always get compliments or other riders asking what kind of bike is it. It's a real head turner even without the chrome. Then there's the sheer value! Liquid cooled, shaft drive, fuel injection, and Honda's reputation for reliability, all for less than $9,000! Nothing can touch this bike in that respect!
