Interesting point, Tev. One way the Petersen acquires vehicles is donations from families who aren’t interested in Grandpa’s old car or motorcycle after he passes on.
I used to ride “old” bikes from the 70s, but no longer have the patience to sync carburetors or go on treasure hunts for needle-in-a-haystack parts. I’m perfectly happy with my “modern classic” Honda, Triumph and Enfield. The casual observer assumes they’re really old anyway.
Recently someone asking about my CB didn’t believe me when I said it was a 2013.
