I love bikes....I made a promise to my Moms that once I had kids I would get off of them. STILL have my MC license though.
I agree the custom bike is a fad and will fade. The prices will come down as the wannabees flitter onto something else.
"I" would find a really neato vintage ride. My last one was an 850 Moto Guzzi Lemans. One of the first factory cafe rides.
It was already passe and the model was 15 years old when I owned it back in 88. I rebuilt it to a 920cc, added some shorty BUB pipes and that thing pulled like a frieght train. Used to get sneers from the Ninjas and other clone bikes.....but NO ONE pulled away going up hill.
Depending on the other driver's skill I usually was waiting on their sorry butts at the local watering hole for them to show up.
THAT's MY vote. PS....the leakier and rattier the better.
