If he is indeed ever going to ride a vintage bike, he will find himself needing to work on that vintage bike on the side of the road. No way around that, no matter what he chooses. Unless, of course, "riding" his vintage bike entails no more than a few miles to some local hangout, so he can appear to folks hanging out that he rides a vintage bike.

Was out on a ride with a buddy on his 70 BMW, me on my 68 R50/2. We were at an intersection and I smelled gas. I had lost a screw from the bottom of my left carb. Shut the fuel off. He rode to a hardware store, comes back with some wooden plugs of various sizes. Picked one that fit, knocked it in there with a rock and rode home :-)
