I once put a pair of pants, that I had bought in 1970, in the rear of my closet. When I was cleaning out my closet 30 years later, I took a look at it and thought this thing is cool! Vintage has been hot the last few years and more and more people want to get there hands on things that look old. That explains why Vespa has the GVS 250 or Honda is sporting the Metropolitan?
The hottest trend to hit the motorcycling world has been the that choppers are now considered to be apart of main stream biking. Previously this type of bike was the preserve of many outlawed biker groups but today have become a mode of transport for lawyers and doctors. The renewed interest in these kinds of bikes has been caused by TV shows such as “The Great Biker Build Off” and “American Chopper”.

Taken from a history book in the year 2095… Motorcycles And The Culture They Inspire 1868-2017
Motorcycles started out as steam engines strapped on to bicycles in 1868. Soon after the gas engine took its place and by the 1900’s there were Motorcycle shops and Dealers all over the World.
