If you had your rathers, which had you rather ride?

B) fully restored vintage bike of your choice.

C) Backstreet, flatblack homebuilt chopper with the engine of your choice.

I'll start the poll with: C

C is the only choice. Now, I wouldn't mind having B in the garage 8)
Hey, this is just where I'm at now! A classic in the geeraj, and a gravel chuckin' asphalt eater in the driveway! I'd love a dozen of each.

Just one, huh? Can't do it.
I'm working on 'B'. Might even start her this weekend.
Most of the important parts of 'C' are in a pile in my garage.

If somebody gave me 'A', I'd sell it, finish B&C, and ride both.....

C, but at -20f there is not much riding going on. But there is always the FL trip.

From the 1970's ways;
C is THE only answer.

If you don't build it, you don't belong on it!

Hi All,
Dale here. I vote B. I would love to have a fully restored 1974 CB750 like the one I own only in perfect condition.

in all cases A should be the answer, because once sold you could buy a few of B and build a few of C . it makes sense .

Post "C"
I just turned 60 last Sept. and am chopping a '70 Triumph TR6R. This is my first time at this and so far it's taken me 1-1/2 years of off & on work (I do have other things to get done - haha).

When I was 25 (or so), I had a '62 Triumph something and loved it. Now I am building what I've always wanted - my OWN chopper!

Sure, it would be nice to have a fancy-smanchy bike with all the bells and whistles - go ahead and buy it - but not for me. When my bike is done (this summer I hope), I can tell everyone - I BUILT IT MYSELF!!

it would make sense to sell the $30000 bike to build a few top notch trumpets.
