I really enjoy when Kaplan showcases some classic specimens of yesteryear.

Regardless of their opinion, the video showcase is eye candy to me.

he is a little over the top but he has had some incredible bikes go through the channel

we have had a few of those show up to the yearly gap meet,(since it started as a kawasaki triples meet 23? yrs ago) they are impressive for the time period for sure.

I can honestly say, the only vintage bike i have not owned that i would want now is either a 4cyl nimbus or a bsa 441 or similar vintage clunky british single, because i like to abuse myself mechanically. lol.

sometimes that's the fun :biker:

The era Yamaha Maxim 1100, the Honda V65 Magna, a few years later the Maxim 750X (and heck, even the Maxim 700) were all really good looking designs (me thinks) and the former three were powerhouses for the street.

Heck, they were all shaft drive too. Back then, shaft drive was like " ... want ketchup with that?"

 

[1973cb750]

i enjoy the shaft drives i liked it on my vtx
