Who would like to see a forum for us owners of 'mature' bikes.
I brought this up in the 'touring and bikes you use' area as well as Off Topic, site discussion.
I know there are lots of you guys with older Japanese, British, American and Italian bikes and are just hanging out for a place to swap stories and info.

I have asked Mr Trousers and he says if there is enough support it will be concidered.

If your wondering what constitutes a classic...
Paul summed it up with something like this:

" only when you love them beyond economic sense"

Everything with two or three wheels is included.


Have a read of the threads.

I used to restore alot of old Japanese motorsickles before my accident and once we move I plan on doing it again even though I cannot ride. If this site does not have a classic/vintage section then there is seriously something wrong here. You have both my vote and Coasters vote on this!

I was in the middle of doing the poll bit ( was not sure on how too) when my pc crashed....as it lives in the garage and sucks dust!!!!
I don't seem to be able to add it as an edit..

Don't be put off by the term classic...its just a name.

Pauls defination is the best so far.

Purests are well catered for elsewhere on the net, I'm more for the real world bikes, that are ridden and not garage queens.
As for vintage, pre war, post war, classic, post classic, and other labels .....I'll leave that to the car and bike clubs.

I have a Darmah I bought in Sydney in '86...at rallies the SS guys would not bother with me ( I did shower ...), so I hung out with the Jap bike owners. I'm not into bike snobbery, I'm into tinkering and riding and enjoying the company of other like minded people. I was at a swap meet this morning and had a good laugh with Ken McIntosh and other swappers, found a clutch tool for my Ducati, and exchanged BMW stories with some other /5 owners.

hmmmm, does that mean I ride a sidecar bike with a car licence.
Mind you they did get a bit miffed when Owen Greenwood cleaned up the sidecar class one time with a three wheeled Mini.

*debate ensues on definition of sidecar Vs trike*

It is the trike that is officially a cage, according to the almighty and benevolent ruler of this land.
