    Bullshit

    How the hell is a 96 Ducatti a classic or vintage bike. Are we all just brain dead dickheads? A classic is a classic, Advertise it, and other post classic prams where it should be!

    If it's a 916 I'd call it far more of a classic than a GB500.

    Funny, I don't recall saying a GB 500 was a classic. But it is closer to being the correct age to qualify.

    A little like a stamp with a spelling mistake on it that becomes a collectors item...

    May the bridges I burn light the way.

    I've always considered a classic to be a first of design irrespective of age. However over 40 years old is often considered vintage. It possible for a bike to be both vintage and classic, but there are many that are classic without being vintage.

    No mistake, (although the Italians have made a few) 25 years old and it will qualify as a classic along with the Harley thats advertised as one too!
