Uhmmm...I regret it when they run out of gas or break, and need to be pushed somewhere.  Uphill, typically.  But I agree: the older bikes have that certain something: cachet? rarity? history?  Newer  bikes look all futuristic and stuff.  The older ones look like machines.

I was looking at older Goldwings a few days back.  While the newer ones look all slick and stuff with the fairings and plastic and stuff, the older ones with the engine exposed look cooler to me. I guess that's the crowd the Valkyrie was aimed at.
