    But surely it's not the age of the rego, but the age of the design that defines an old dunger (aka 'a classic'). And a 1971 Meridan Tiger, is really just a 1930s Speedtwin with ideas beyond its station. Definately an old banger (aka classic).

    Sidecars are ok....because you can remove them and have a proper motorcycle.(Apart from racing ones i know...)
    Trikes are IMHO an abomination - neither car or motorcycle and akin to bestiality...

    Lol. By that measure I'm riding a short-stroke 1953 Norton Manx.

    Actually, while we have the correct sort of audience, what was the first 4-valve OHC single? Didn't take them until the XL250, did it? Did the Brits do one?

    Of course bloody yes.
