The Motorcycle That Was Nearly Thrown Away
It's hard to imagine now, but there was a time when many classic motorcycles were simply old used bikes.
They weren't collectable. They weren't valuable. They were just outdated machines taking up space.
Over the years, countless motorcycles were broken for parts, scrapped or abandoned because nobody imagined they would one day become sought-after classics.
That's what makes surviving motorcycles so interesting.
Every bike that still exists today has somehow avoided that fate.
Some survived because an owner couldn't bear to part with it. Others were forgotten in storage and accidentally preserved for future generations.
Have you ever owned a motorcycle that people thought wasn't worth saving at the time?
