Old bike philosophy

 

 
The popularity of older motorcycles is truly remarkable.
Old bikes stay popular no matter what☆
The Z alone is such a bike that you can run a whole business on it
The Katana is the same way
What you can’t find now, you can discover in the past☆
I never really wanted a GSX-S1000
I still wonder why I bought it.
My mentor just said "”Hey, there’s a nice GSX in America—want to buy it?”
So I bought it… that’s all there was to it
That’s how I became a casual old bike rider
After buying it and riding it, I have to say it turned out to be really great■
I can’t believe I rode that clunker all the way through Kyushu, Shikoku, and Osaka～
I’ve been seeing the Z pretty often lately
The reason it has such devoted fans
I totally get it now☆
Compatibility / simplicity / looks / parts
It’s an old bike, but it’s still a current production model
A beautiful engine is wonderful
With Harley, there’s the XR1000 and XLCR
That indescribable sculptural beauty from the head and cylinder☆
Well, I chickened out and bought a Sportster
Putting them side by side is depressing
As a fairing fan, the Z1R is the best
And the engine looks great too!
But those two old bikes…
I’m starting to think I should give up, and the night sky of my worries turns gray
Ha ha ha～
