tbh I need to do my test, get it out the way and that.I was expecting that statement to come in at some point. The RD sounds fun and looks the part, whereas the old MZs and Bantams have that 'pre war postman' look about them, which is cool. Id like something boxy, thats has its seat horizontal to the tank. The RD seems to fit that profile. Il have a look around and test one out.

Its getting though that its hard to tell between 'classic' and 'clumsy'. The sportsbike looks cool though, with the minimal fairing. Im just a sucker for dropped handlebars though, which i suppose I could do on the RD.

Anyways, let the can of worms be opene, feel free to lift the 125cc restriction so the 'bigger boys' can join in! :mchappy:

I took a head-on pic of a BSA Goldstar at a show a few years ago. Can't find the pic now but it is a good look.

At the end of the day, they're all bikes. Just depends on personal preferences. I'll have a go on anything with 2 wheels and a motor, as seen in "Exhibit A" below :mchappy:

While on the subject of classic bikes, did anyone else see the Rex Acme that was on eBay a couple of weeks ago? Looked like it had come from the National Motorcycle Museum, after the fire that is!

And there's more!
 

How about a Benneli 250 two stroke twin, with Ace bars:

Or a Moto Guzzi 250 4 cylinder four stroke

Just to add to the confusion! :clap:
