Who's got a bike older than them?

[Steam]

It is my ambition to own a bike older than me. Or ideally, exactly the same age as me, made in 1977.

Won't be too hard I reckon, as there seem to be lots of old Honda and Kawa roadbikes still kicking around on Tardme.

How many of you out there own and ride a bike as old or older than you?

[Ixion]

1977 old? Wotch it, Wotz old abart 1977? 1977 is modern, practically the latest model. Got electric starters, n brakes, n suspension n all that modern stuff. Mine are older than that. But not older than me.

[xwhatsit]

Of course. I'm only a little boy, very easy to own a bike older than me :laugh:

To be honest there's not many bikes younger than me that held my interest when looking around for what to buy.

1977, you say? Get yourself a nice CB750F2 Supersport.

...Get yourself a nice CB750F2
Oh yes, that's the ticket. Easy to attach a sidecar to, too.

I don`t own it but a mate does , he owns a 72` Triumph Bonny and still thrashes it hard , we went to Whangamata the other day , unfortunately it uses more oil than petrol , bloody good to watch him still cane the old girl around corners.

Im in the club. But yea, im barely out of nappies compared to the rest of you.

Go hold up an old timer for a Matchless 500 or an AJS , or the more modern Norton.
Then you can say you ride a qaulity old bike !
:first:

I've got a car 10 years older than me that I drive to work most days, and one thats 11 years older. Bike is 18 years newer however.

Make it more interesting, find one double your age instead :)

The oldest bike I ever owned was still 15 years younger than me but I started riding younger than that by riding my older Bro's bike. Now my oldest bike is my VFR which is 39 years younger than me. Your target Steam is obviously getting away on me.

Doesn't really answer the question though does it old man?

[Wired1]

77 should be easy enough, all the good hondas and Yammys came out in the late 70's. I think they made the first TT500 in 1976 along with the XS650 so there's two outstanding bikes to start with...

[sunhuntin]

my 500 is an 83, im from 85. still, it aint really old enough for me... my dream bike is a 65 harley panhead. bikes cars and men... the older they are, the better they are.

[Ixion]

Now thre's a chick who knows the truth of life. Men , cheese , and port, the older they are the better the be.

Bugger that... Get a GS750B. The fun factor is much greater. :ride:

Or we just go sour and smelly
