The Classic Biker Bar / Re: Future Classics
« on: June 13, 2006, 04:16:06 AM »
Well if we knew the answer to that we would all be rich in 20 years,ive given it some thought and come to the following conclusions
1)there is a hell of a lot of new bikes that are just used as sunnyweekend toys,nothing wrong with this mind its just the way it is.So in 20 years time are there going to be loads of HDs,Goldwings etc with 10k on the clock?maybe
2)How is all the computor trickery going to stand the tests of time,will they all go to the knackers yard when the digital dash goes titsup?perhaps the trade ads in classic bike will be advertising computor servicing insted of wheel building,chroming & wheelbuilding
3)As far as whats going to be a future classic i rekon the Suzuki GSX1400,any Guzzi and the Ural wolf,well thats my guess,if you know different please let us know.
Regards Sean.

Hi Dougie,with trailbike forks the travel can be so much that on a chop under heavy breaking the down pipes/tubes can ground out,it may be possible to stiffen the forks by putting car valve springs down the fork tubes,hope this helps Sean.

not heard anymore tales of the cd185,ive just bought one of the snarling power beasts!!!!! It runs like a swiss watch with only 15k on the clock,but it looks a little bit (quite a lot actually) shabby,the grand plan is to paint it totally matt green or sand (depending what i can blag from our local raf station.)and have sort of a fake ww2 dispatch bike.It should make a great winter hack to give my old bmw a rest.
