Hmmm...I'm now wondering where the interest (age group-wise) is generated in the current retro-style bikes that most manufacturers offer. Is it older riders? If so, must be a lot of them to cause all the major manufacturers to offer retro bikes.
Along those lines I just read that cassette decks are making a comeback (WTF?) and that used cassette decks that sold for X two years ago are selling for 5x that price now. So...whose buying those? Young people? Doesn't make sense to me. Also, reel to reel tape decks are now available new at stunning prices that SOMEBODY must be paying. Again, surely all this can't be older (mostly) guys that wanted one when they were younger... We won't even talk about records/turntables. All seems very strange.
