Wow what a fantastic job!
We all have mostly positive, fond memories of our older rides, and when we get the chance to revisit them nowadays, it brings us back to the new reality that the modern rides are better.
Redbirds, When I had the CB360 and 550Four in the 70s, I remember that if a new rider came into a Honda dealer asking about the CB750s, the dealer would actually talk a newbie out of considering one, and steer them to something smaller. "Too large and powerful" and " You need some experience first to ride something like that." they would say.
Business ethics are a thing of the past. I bet not one word of caution would be said if a skinny 17 yr old walked into a dealer today and said " I want that Goldwing."
