Default Who Owns Classic Bikes?

Curious how many people here actually own a classic now?

I've got my trusty 1947 EL Knucklehead (and I think Buzz does too). How about you, what's in your garage?

Wish I had a classic - either a knuck, pan or chief. Any year would do. But it's not in the near future for me. Oh well, I can still fanatasize here

I got a few, some are long termers, other short term. Yes, I still have my '47 Knuck, a couple of Panheads, and a couple of Indians. Love them all, better investments than anything on Wall Street these days.

Nice bike. I am lucky enough to have opwned a few classics over the years.

Check out American iron's other site for classics at www.caimag.com. Very cool there.

I have a confession.

Buzz recently drew me over to the dark side, and I now own a '38 VL. It doesn't run but that's a matter of time. It's certainly cool. More later -- like in the fall.

I have a 1926 JD and a 1920 L20T. The '26 is done as a bobber and the '20 will be done like a flat tracker, if I keep it.
