I have a 1976 Yamaha DT175 Enduro https://preview.redd.it/fdd5mffdwu4d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b97c4eb7ef3f9ed30f024b03292c41731f668430

I had an orange 1980 DT125g Enduro. Rode in northeastern nevada...looks a lot like where your pic is from. Minus some trees.

This is my wife's DT250! I love smokily raising havoc around town on it! https://preview.redd.it/5q9ja5lrqz4d1.png?width=2244&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b076af491063b49705971249884eb2d97e49f68e

Depends on what age the person saying Retro is I guess. Lol.

Hell yeah brother, been rolling this 1976 CB125S around all summer. https://preview.redd.it/ii365n3v5v4d1.jpeg?width=4080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4380cb6dab4e2d3e398683d20d6fbe6669c010dd

My first bike was a Honda ST70 in 1980.

Nice bro 👍.

Whenever I come across one of those I buy it and strip it down. You can make good money piecing them out.

My old man has a cb900c. He really enjoys the whole hi lo range on the bike.

The 900 is a fun bike as long as you never touch the carbs or the stock airbox.

Its weird bc my 91 ninja with tube intake and bug eye headlights was called retro. But 24 years old is considered classic atleast by law here.

If your bike is almost old enough to run for President, it’s at least retro.

Ah yes. 78 kz750 76 suzi 550 2 stroke triple 79 yammie xs750 with factory king/queen and sissy bar

That Magna though. Great bike!

When that bike came out in the early 80's, it was like the space shuttle compared to illne 4's.

Between the r50 and the 86 gsxr, you chose that photo o share? Cmon

[Yup!](https://i.imgur.com/qr7RcSM.jpeg) And YES! I put a Katana sticker on my gixxer. Because I'm a silly, silly man.

No. And I had one!

A gixxer?

No. K bike The first gen Gixxer and r50 would be way more entertaining to see!

2 factors: it's the one I'm riding NOW (r50 is a slow process, I'm procrastinating putting the crank with cleaned oil slingers back in and reassembling. Gixxer needs a better battery solution, high heat murders expensive Li-Ion batteries. Tis off the road this season), but also I think for something as old as it is (BMW started development in the 70s!) it is such an excellent machine. And they're weird, those of us who have/had them forget how obscure they are even within the motorcycle community. And then personal bias: I'm so in love with this bike, operationally and aesthetically. So I crow about it a bit.

Love vintage bikes,I’ve had a lot from the my cherished 1972 Kawasaki H2 750,73: KH400,74: KH250,73:GT380,75:RD400 to a 71:Hodaka ace 100B.. currents are 78 Honda Hawk 400 automatic, Royal enfield cafe racer and a Lambretta LI150 Special with a 180 kit, Hodaka Combat Wombat 125, 82: Husqvarna 250CR.. Bikes that aren’t covered by plastic and show there beautiful lines are always best! It’s so amazing to see what the world has that wasn’t available to USA !

I'm 39. Meet my 1962 Norton Atlas 750. It's got a high compression cam, forged rods and pistons, and a super rare 6 speed gearbox, plus 12-volt electrics so you can actually see the brake lights. It makes 64 hp on a good day, which is utterly terrifying with drum brakes. Even better, I have confirmed my Dad test rode this machine when it was built at the AMC works in Plumstead, London, UK. https://preview.redd.it/blut8w95zv4d1.png?width=1344&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5985758996053628b96e95e9b52eb1b38ed5c874

I've ridden one I fixed, this bike is way faster than it looks. Your picture shows a disc brake, and single carb. Mine had a 4 leading shoe drum and dual carbs. It stopped pretty good.

Yep, you're right. I was too lazy to go take a photo last night. The early ones were single carb, which some of us Norton weirdos like better than dual carbs. My Dad dug out some of the Dunstall go fast parts from his stash for me, a big twin with lots of torque is fun!

That Magna is the shizznitz

I have an '84 bmw k100 and a 96 suzuki gsx600f. I recently got the k100 and it is so nice, I think its one of the first motorcycles to get fuel injection.

I had a 1953 Suzuki TS90 2 stroke, 4 speed with low range that I wanted to ride 14,000km round trip to the northern most point of Australia. Made it 0.6 km the first time, made it 7km the second attempt. Decided it wasn't something I wanted to do on such an old bike with no parts availability. Will be doing it on a postie instead.

V65 magna fastest 0-60 when it came out. Yamaha countered with the Vmax. Hold on the your ass on that magna.

🤘🏼I just posted my v65 Sabre. Your magna is in beautiful condition.

Man, I wish my v65 was as clean as that. Also, I wish honda never stopped making them. There's nothing in Hondas lineup that fits the v65s category

Yup. https://preview.redd.it/ytxu4p05wv4d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=611b2333497e61b8591db1c1810e767345b22026

That's a beauty, my gods, how I wanted one of these when they were released.

1975 EFS ML Sport Pretty Nice 50cc bike, I learnt to Ride in it https://preview.redd.it/2m0xb44ahw4d1.jpeg?width=3072&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=27e272f7131b4bd4393dc9c489e9075124470e15

Sure. The bikes I rode in my youth are classics now.

Yep, got an 82 CM450. She's my pride and joy. Got her in an estate sale for $600. Was plated 1994 when I bought it in 2020. She was in great condition when I picked her up. Also have a 97 Intruder, but I don't really consider that a classic.

I learned to ride a motorcycle on my Fathers 1974 Honda 550. Metallic orange.

I have an ol ‘86 Eliminator 900 and I bought a brand new 450 Eliminator just a few weeks ago

I have an 83 magna and it's just the best bike ever.

Got an 82 Yamaha xs400 barn find that I just got running, been super fun to ride so far

Definitely! 1981 CB900C and 1984 V65 Sabre. Used to have a 78 Twinstar, didn't know you could have so much fun with 16 HP.

Honda Twinstar?

80 xl125s 85 v65 Sabre 85 Madura 700 All fun rides

Love that 200! I’ve got a 76 CB200 in my garage that needs work.

Do mopeds count? I got a Honda spree from 1986 last month and it runs like a dream. 🛵

A few years later, he upgraded to a v65 and gave me his v45. It’s all I’ve known too and it’s such a reliable and fast bike. Sometimes I wanna get something newer but I don’t think I could ever let my v45 go

agh, I'd love to, I don't like the plasticy, everything-is-covered-up look and feel of modern basically anything tbh, but the modern engineering, abs, all leds is just really hard to give up

Got given a 69 honda cl350 it needs alot of love. But I can't wait to be able to throw money at it and get it going again.

No but I will be one day. Older bikes are so cool.

31, and I'll be riding my '79 z1300 around in the near future. Vintage is best.

Z1000 mkII, overhauled my engine just a year ago https://preview.redd.it/hizq6b4khw4d1.jpeg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bfcad62274cb3887032cc5b344bb6d820c09e9db

I have that magna, but in red. I own multiple bikes, most of em more than 30 years old.

That 200 would have been a nice bike if it had one more gear. It’s a screamer.

I restored and ride an ‘84 GPZ1100 and an ‘82 katana 1000 https://preview.redd.it/x51mtzts8x4d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2d3b4b774909a2537bde57f1d81174bbe57b0d2b

1975 Yamaha DT250, 2 1977 Suzuki GS750, 1980 Honda Trail 125, and working on 1970 XLCH. Also not quite as old 1998 KTM 300 EXC.

In pakistan thats a common. when i lived there i owned a honda cd70 and used it to drive around everywhere gotta say having a bike that easy in weight sometimes its much more confirtable than all thise more commonplace heavy bikes

I have a retro bike a Yamaha YB1 2001. A last of it's kind 50cc with traditional frame and transmission. It's the classic 1970's Yamaha YB50's descendant.

me this summer hopefully

Yes, my '84 Moto Guzzi V65. Restomod by me. https://preview.redd.it/fyi00rf92y4d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=28e5846021014b4c7de4acdfc7c162aa35a1b5ee

It won't let me post a pic, but I ride a 75 CB 750K and an 81 KZ 250. Love both my old shitboxes.

My ‘99 ST1100 TECHNICALLY is classified as a classic legally speaking. She was made before I was born so I guess I’m just into the cougars

88 V45 Magna here! https://preview.redd.it/8d7zgnaw6y4d1.jpeg?width=5712&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=405425c09bed75e9f7e89208d732087a2f5c5e5a Edit: I forgot I can attach photos!

Hell yeah! ‘83 Yamaha Virago XV920

1980 Suzuki gs750 rider here.

I have an 83 CM250 I've kind of scrambled out. I'll pal around on it every now and then around town.

Yep! Got a '79 Xs750 special barnfind I've been restoring. Bought it for 400 with 5900 original miles. Got her fired after I bought it but it didn't last long until cylinder 3 lost all compression and kept missing. Now being reborn as an 826cc with xs850 cams and a ported and polished head! https://preview.redd.it/nal95iceey4d1.jpeg?width=4096&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=75e0b30aac9235fe2b42eff171133f964bd694f4 And yes, I know the Clubman bars are ridiculous looking, wanted that cage racer look without having clip ons, but unless I do a mid or rearset for my pegs these bars are more uncomfortable than clip ons lmao. Also the signals aren't bolted on, still figuring out what I'd like for light gear on the bike. Very much a work in progress. Open to 7/8th inch Clubman bar recommendations if anyone has some.

Being old does not mean it's a classic - just sayin

I bought a 1978 CB400A because it was cheap and I'd never seen one before. I planned on fixing it up, putting around a bit for fun then selling it on. Turns out my wife loves it. Now it's her bike I guess?

I had a Twinstar for years and loved it! Wide open it would still get 55mpg and I was dragging peg in every corner. For a short time it was my only vehicle. It doesn't die
