The new classics. Cars and motorcycles from more than 25 years are recognized new classics. Yet?
But in our experience world, that is emotionally different. That will have something to do with the average age of our classic fans.
It has been researched and proven: Our favorite classics are the vehicles from our youth. The cars we dreamed of. Our father's car. Those kind of things.
A Harley-Davidson from 1990 still scores high in the feast of recognition. He still looks like a thirty-year-old Harley for that.
A Honda CBR 400 RR from 1990 looks very different again.
And to label an Opel Omega from 1990 as a healed classic? Or a Deawoo Imperial?
The fact is that bicycles and quadricycles that have not reached legal classic status for so long, provided they are in good condition, are perfectly usable and are actually dirt cheap. Moreover, the world in 1990 was not yet completely on its axis of electronics, so maintenance, repair and replacement of parts is not yet an issue.
But if you think that those fresh 25 + people are too new, too modern? Then take a test drive. Because even in the last 25 years, technical developments have not stood still.
