Yeah, I'd agree with that. I collect old muscle cars, people assume they're fast, but really, they're not (unless you spend a lot of time and money, and even then, they're still not that fast). But the experience of driving them is good. I've tried using my 67 Mustang as a daily driver, but I always default back to a boring and vanilla car (usually a wagon) because it's way less noticed (and I like being invisible). The running costs of a muscle car are academic, they appreciate more than the gas you're pouring into it.
Bikes on the other, the whole reason for being is for performance. So, unless it makes the bike go faster, it doesn't belong on the bike.
I read a post on this thread a moment ago that cars can out corner a bike - in the rain perhaps. In reality though, point to point, or especially if there's traffic, the bike is faster. On a race track - it depends on the match, the track, the driver/rider, and the weather.

I've been told I make women mental, like my personal instability is contagious. So long as I don't make them pregnant.
There is a definite change in dating since the books became widely known. Prior, if you tied up a chick on a one night stand, there would be a police report. Post the books becoming mainstream, single women carry accessories with them in their huge purses. The same accessories carried by a guy would be called a rape kit. Funny enough, in Australia, you look for the women who carry the bulky handbags into bars, it's like the signal. Plus, women are more into rougher, toys, etc. Thanks to the author of the book.

I would like a Valiant VG two door coupe. Or a 57 Bel Air 210 wagon.
there was a Valiant 2dr in Welly that looked like your Dad's one, vanilla paint (seriously - off white) with a vinyl roof, steel wheels with hubcaps (widened on the inside and tubbed). It looked basically stock. It had a 440 in itI was putting $15 worth of gas in my bike and he was putting $100+ of gas into his car..... worth it. totally.
I thought elections were decided by angry posts on social media. - F5 Dave
The VG is an awesome car. I had a VG Pacer in my youth, when they weren't worth anything. It burned to the ground on the harbour bridge. The 440 is a fucking awesome motor.
57 2 door wagon is a neat ride - the 210 trim is actually quite rare now, and Bel Airs (Nomads) are worth moonbeams. I like the 57 Pontiac Safari two door wagon - it's rarer (18,000 versus 1,300 for the 55-57 years), and it's more interesting with all the rocket trim on it; hence collecting.
