when did the Germans bomb Pearl Harbor?
'66 Atlas - regular ride
"75 Commando - looking for parts and finances to finish refurb
'75 Suzuki GT750 - it was cheap
'91 Fantic - primarily for hurting myself on

I think the author is wrong. There are more old gits like me on the road all the time. I even see a lot of older women riding their own machines where thirty years ago, not so much. I think it is just easier to keep riding now as we become more seasoned although I really hope I am never so old that I am relegated to one of those three wheeled horseshoe crab looking things. I have never had a bike with an electric start.

Are motorcycles over, someone needed to turn in some print. What a bunch of mental mastabatory drivall. I may think modern bikes, even Ducks are boring but I know there is some 19 year old lying in bed fantasizing about riding one the same way I did about the 1977 750 Super Sports. Is it over, Christ when I saw the picture of the guy on that old Harley from 1966 I thought it was a trendy modern kid on a vintage bike. That says it all.
