How old are you? Ageing biker population?

[hellokitty]

here here... I would rather watch porn on a big screen than have this debate... some nice chicks ride GN's

I used to ride a GN and I used to be nice.....

[jack_hamma]

Oh come on, what have I done wrong now?

'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance
Well they're no friends of mine'

bad is good too.............

I'm 62 and I ride a gixxer sixxer. When I turn 70, I'll go up to the 750. If I get to 80 I'll go for 800cc plus...

The way I see it, the older you are, the more it takes to make an impression, hence the choice of capacity...

[dogsnbikes]

perhaps, in the interests of keeping your poll accurate, you could provide us with your approved list of what is and what isn't, a 'proper' bike

Guess Blackbirds don't count

What's a proper bike?

word is they have upsidedown forks like this one

What alarms me is that people actually take part and vote on a website poll

The INTERNET poll tells many things. By the looks of this poll, the new generation is starting to lose interest in motorcycling. I hypothesize that many motorcycle manufacturers will be facing recession in 20 to 30 years. If this trend continues, many companies will be out of business within 50 years.

I better add this poll to my marketings research Ph.D thesis.

I'm 106, ride a 47' Norton International.

Thats the spirit EJ....
Remember though, some will actually vote truthfully....
Though, the results so far also mean that those 40+ have nothing better to do...

[tri boy]

Well come on- motards, sports bikes, naked/street fighter...

Just not fucking GN250

Guarantee kanny went more places, and has had bigger/better adventures on her volty, than any jumped up lil sprotbike cocksmoker ever will have on a piddly 4cyl heap of crap.
Sheesh, baby kerosine cowboys think the world starts/finishes with $1.50 imports.

[Cayman911]

GN250s are total fucking shit.

you're being too nice , i dont think even shit is that bad.

[Old Steve]

Not only am I in the older bracket, but at 62 I must be the oldest rider still on their Restricted license. Only 3 months until I can sit my Full.

And yes, I am on a Hyosung learner bike, though I think the GV250 cruiser looks OK.

Yes the GV250 cruiser is a great bike for it's purpose.

From the look of the poll so far it does indeed look like bike companies will be going bust in 20 years time.
