I love the thought of this poll as I was in the process of writing another article for the VJMC Magazine that is an off shoot of this Poll.
But first I will stay on point here. I tend to Buy-and-Sell a lot of bikes looking for "Keeper Bikes" for my collection. I love the variety of riding so many different bikes in my life time. Some I will never sell, some I have regretted selling and others are on the chopping block you could say. For this Poll I will need to think for a bit before I answer with owning over 40 some bikes. LOL!
Now on to the other Poll or competition... who here has owned a bike for the longest time bought from the dealer new? I think this would be interesting. We can also add bought used and owned the longest too if you like.
In my article I have owned my 1986 Honda VFR 750 since new so that is 34 years. Owning a bike since new and having it become a vintage bike. Sometimes it even becomes a Classic desirable bike. I am hoping my VFR fits into this category. Its value has been on the rise.
My Brother-in-law has owned his 1972 Kawasaki S2 350 since new so that is 48 years. He has me beat hands down. His has become a true classic! LOL!
