And it isn't just Wings Joe. I am seeing a LOT more vintage bikes on the road these days, and I believe that the manufactures are taking notice because it seems that there are more retro style bike coming out on the market. No longer is it just crotch rockets and v-twins, and I for one am glad to see it.

You kind of have to admit that the Japanese are good at market analysis and understanding what people will buy. I love the smooth, quiet ride of the Goldwings going from point A to point B, especially two up, but there's just something special about riding a V-twin that's uncomfortable, makes your hands buzz, spoke wheels, chain drive, bugs in your face, and you have to let off of it when you see a cop to keep from getting a noise ticket on a crisp fall Sunday afternoon, going where the road goes, solo, without a destination. Maybe it's just an old guy thing.
