Examples plaese, the only kid I know of is Benly-Ben 12 the rest I have seen are between 25, and 60. So if youre 60 then yes! You shouldnt be riding if youre old enough to be complaining about kids riding bikes! ;D

I Think some younger people have joined over the past few years. Many of the more senior members are way out of warranty.

eh, thats true. my friend has an rd250- ridiculous fast.
not a new bike, but a FAST kaw none the less!
but I like running through the gears on my cafe while riding thru town- as opposed to hitting 90 in first.

           Only thing is, Bob, I'll wager that we VINTAGE folks don't have the value of OTHER "Vintage" Things. ::) :D

           By the way, I have already QUIT adding years ON, I'm taking them OFF now! ;D  Now, if nly I could actually get my body to take off those same years! :( ;)
