    CLASSIC BIKE FORUM. Vote now!

    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.

    Put a poll up. Everyone knows that's how you win on an Internet forum!

    I have a 21 year old NZ250 I'm doing up.

    Is that, errr, Classic enough to join in?
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Ooooh yes! A poll!
    That would be really pretty with all those coloured bars...

    Now the NZ250.... I think the purists would term that a post classic, but then it depends whose rules you use. Can't find anything on classic motorcycles but I would assume that the classification system is similar to cars and there is some dispute there: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classic_car
    I think for our purposes Paul's definition listed at the beginning of the post should cover it
