Preaching to the choir is good practice.........it confirms your convictions for 'other' opportunities to voice your opinion.

When I go to bike events such as VMD (Mid-Ohio) and get a group of listeners for a few minutes, I pose the question......If $$$ was not a concern.....what would be the top-ten bikes in your collection?  I have asked this question several hundered times and will confirm that an early CB750 is likely to be the most repeated bike, but not necessarily in the majority top-five.  Its also of interest to hear responses based on most valuable versus personal preferrence.

So now that the media has confirmed our opinion......will the prices go up?

Bill.......more exposure on the main page..........Maybe MOTORCYCLIST should offer a special price for direct mail to our members.  The picture of the restored red bike is very nice....BUT...why does that bike with the wrong tank trim and a few other shortcomings show up when there are hundreds of 100-point restorations available for a photo-op?
