The funny thing, many of our opinions are based on old machines and were quite valid. Today, much of that experience to form those opinions simply does not apply. E.g. you can't tickle an EFI, you can't just off the fuel valve, no sticky floats to tap loose and very very few kick start bikes left (SR-400 is the only street/civilian bike that I know of, the balance being dirt bikes (and Ural has a back up kick start but do you call it a dual sport or street bike? 
)
The bike world has moved on, many of us are still sniffing the fumes of its' passing.
