Ferret has ten years on me, but I think I meet the DLX demographic pretty well too. I owned a pristine 1970 CB750K0 two decades ago, and a 1976 CB400F several years before that. Pretty bikes to look at but not so enjoyable on the road (I'd been completely spoiled by more contemporary machines). I had the same rose-colored view of my lovely 1973 RD350. It's long gone too, for the same reason. Compared to that vintage CB750K0, I much prefer the look of a silver 1979 CB750F Supersport (or a CBX).
As far as the Road & Track article, I loved it. Like Mr. Egan, I too remove my black leather jacket (when I'm wearing it) before entering any establishment. I simply don't want to be associated as "one of those guys." I'm not a biker. I just like riding motorcycles.
