Well, I know that a lot you consider a "Classic Sportbike" to be last years model, LOL but Sportbikes do have a real and interesting history from the Cafe Racers to the first Sportbikes and Race Replica machines!!
I'm BJ Ondo, ("Old Fart"), being 45 year old, I've seen the beginnings of how production sportbikes have come to be. Basicly going to list how it all got stared and differnt models up to the late 80's race replicas. Will even bring up the "racers" who raced the specialized factory bikes that finally became a "fastbike" that the consumer could purchase. Check it out as it grows and please join in.
