I owe a lot to my old man. Pretty much everything, actually. But he owes riding to me

He picked up an '05 Shadow 750 around the time I picked up my WR last spring.

Out cruising some WI Rustic Roads along the St. Croix River. His first water crossing, the Shadow did alright. My "little 250" thumper is a pretty even match for the 750 v-twin on the paved roads, until the twisties and gravel start, then it puts the spank on. Love that bike!
Hopefully I'll get some better pics this summer.
