OLD FLAMES
Motoring World
|December 2024
They say that getting old isn't for the faint of heart.
No wonder, then, that ageing has little effect on motorcycles. Sure, there are many who say that old motorcycles belong in scrapyards, that they are relics which are no longer relevant. However, old bikes are always only a restoration away from being what they were built to be, perhaps even better. It's an enviable advantage they hold over us mortals; after all, it is humbling to realise that you're just a temporary stop for the 49-year-old motorcycle that stands as if it's new in your garage. It moved someone before you got it and it will move others after you're gone.
