Now we can buy a motorcycle that looks mostly like whatever we had or wanted back then and find that this one starts every time, handles safely, and never catches on fire. But now that we are all successful businessmen/women/doctors/lawyers/cartel kingpins, we can afford to recapture that youth that slipped away. Sure, it wasn’t true-we all had acne, no money, and half the time that car/bike/board wasn’t working for one reason or another. And at that time, we owned a car or a motorcycle or a skateboard that was the main delivery vehicle of all those good times. But I think we all look back to whatever the hell it is we did in high school and see our younger selves as some kind of superhumans, who had the most fun we would ever have in our soon-to-be-dull-and-responsible lives. Why is nostalgia such a powerful draw? Who knows? I’m a script-writer not a psychiatrist. All you have to do is pick the particular era of yesteryear that appeals to you and voila, there will be a bike waiting for you. If you yearn for the classic bikes of yesteryear, but don’t like carburetors and kick starters, there is a fleet of motorcycles in almost every showroom right now waiting for you.
