I am quite amazed at how well the designs of the japanese. bikes from the 70s and 80s have aged. They all still look great and have taken on the look of a true classic.

I bought some Classic bikes brand new off the show room floor and enjoyed them for many years.
The 1981 Kawasaki GPZ 1100 and my awesome 1984 Yamaha RZ 500 and Suzuki RG 500 Gamma will never be replaced in my memories along with my Laverda Jota and Bimota KB1.
