Love this thread. Everybody here totally gets it. However I will say that even if times change, and youngsters want bikes that look nothing like what we like, one has to wonder where the heck Honda is going with that new Valkyrie or that NM4. I can see how anime fantasy driven Japanese kids might like that futuristic transformer style, but I have yet to see the new Valkyrie, or the NM4 on US roads. I thought I had seen ugly bikes before, but those seriously take the cake. And I think the term "fugly" applies here. My CB next to those looks like a beautiful, well mannered, educated, and well respected lady, who is both classy and extremely sexy all at once, like the dream woman. The others are like punk girls on meth.
