Bought this bike out of the crate but 3 yrs old. So I got it cheap. Had not ridden a bike in 15 yrs and wanted something reliable and predictable. I wanted something that I could ride around through the back country roads and take day trips on comfortably with my GF. I also wanted something that I could customize myself.
The stock seats were not awful but got uncomfortable after a couple hours. Changed those out for Mustang seats with driver backrest and that made a huge difference. Added a passenger backrest so my GF felt safer and I swapped out both the passenger and driver pegs for floorboards. That made a difference too. Added engine guard and highway pegs and saddle bags which made day rides out to the mountains a lot easier, able to stretch out a bit and pack enough snacks and drinks and extra clothes like a raincoat or sweatshirt that we have at least the basics for a day out.
I added fender trim and a front fender ornament.
For a basic bike with a few upgrades, I get a lot of compliments on its looks.
Bike has plenty of power, even with 2 of us on it. Not gonna race a rice grinder but plenty to cruise comfortably at 70. Handling is solid and predictable. The mechanics are reliable. Maintenance is easy as heck.
I think if I were going to do a week long trip I would want a bigger bike with more bells and whistles but for a day tripper or even a weekend this bike is more than fine with a few comfort upgrades.

2015 Honda 750 Areo

I bought a used 2015 Honda 750 Areo in April of this year 2020, with 5,600 miles on her. Its now July of 2020 and she now has 9,500 miles. I had to change the handlebars because they were cheap and gave the bike an insecure feel, much better now. It's a decent bike with a somewhat small cockpit...

I bought a used 2015 Honda 750 Areo in April of this year 2020, with 5,600 miles on her. Its now July of 2020 and she now has 9,500 miles. I had to change the handlebars because they were cheap and gave the bike an insecure feel, much better now. It's a decent bike with a somewhat small cockpit and I'm only 5'5 and 200 lbs.
I have a 2015 V-star 950 and my v-star is a really good all purpose bike. I bought the Honda as a back up to my 950, however I like the Honda Areo too however the v-star is a much better bike.

Just got back into cycling after 25 years and choose the Shadow Aero to do just that. Perfect bike for me as i am tall. Very maneuverable, comfortable and with more than ecology power for this 56 year old girl. Took care of the not so comfortable seat by replacing it with a Mustang Low Rider with back support. Definitely recommend this bike for reliability, comfort and going on long or short rides.

I have owned and ridden a lot of bikes over the years, and I have to say the Goldwing is by far the most comfortable, smoothest, fastest and best handling tour bike I've ever owned. My only "complaint" is I prefer top loading saddlebags rather than side loading. Not enough of an issue to stop the purchase. This was purchased to replace an 09 Yamaha Royal Star Venture. I bought the Venture new and put over 70K miles on it with no thought to replace it, unfortunately it was totaled by an idiot in a cage that doesn't know how to use mirrors. I've had the 'Wing for almost a year now and have 11K on it. I would recommend this bike to anyone looking for a reliable, comfortable long distance tour machine. Best bike I've ever owned!

I have had this bike since July, 2014. It's a total joy to ride. It's so comfortable, I almost fall asleep. The raised passenger seat gives your back great support. It's difficult to make very slow tight turns on automatic mode if you are doing a cone test. It has great torque and hardly any wind resistance due to its aerodynamic and stealthy style Police have stopped me to take photos of me and the bike! You can easily purchase tour bags with Velcro straps to attach to the backrest.

I hope you like a lot of attention. The NM4 is a showstopper and head turner. I've owned the bike since it was initially released in the U.S. and not a day goes by where someone doesn't ask what it is or wants to comment on it. The 670cc motor has ample power along with the dual clutch...

I hope you like a lot of attention. The NM4 is a showstopper and head turner. I've owned the bike since it was initially released in the U.S. and not a day goes by where someone doesn't ask what it is or wants to comment on it. The 670cc motor has ample power along with the dual clutch transmission to move you down the road at speed and give you all the passing power you need. Once the brakes have had time to wear in, braking is great as well. The best part about the bike is the seating position and backrest. It's a relaxing way to get to work and back, and makes the longer weekend rides easy to handle. It won't win any races but it's certainly no slouch and it corners really well once you get used to the sitting position. I get an average of 72 mpg., with the highest being 86.9 mpg. on a long ride at 55 mph. If you are a first timer or a seasoned rider, take a moment and give the bike a test run...you might be pleasantly surprised.
