33. Been riding almost two years. Pined for an early 70s R60 for over a decade and then decided on a 2007 Classic. Glad I did.

I like having a ride I can work on myself for a change.

Still 64.1st Brit was a 67 BSA Shooting Star 441 single,coupla Triumph Triples,several others but the Brits were my favorites.Personality.Presence.Zero leaks and completely reliable.Especially the BSA.I am not kidding.The handling of these was tops,in my experience.Far from perfect in any way but very satisfying.I miss the last triple.A lot.

Hi guys, I am 54,seems like the Garbone is the baby of the the group. I was born and raised in England and never had a British bike. My older brothers had many bikes and made all the common mistakes. They had AJS,Matchless,Nortons,etc. My personal favourite had to be my eldest brothers Aerial Arrow 250 2-stroke twin.
Long live the Geezers!

Okay I feel better now.  3 twenty-somethings in the club.  The rest of you have achieved geezer status but you're still cool!
