Why Is The Search Half The Fun?
For many classic motorcycle enthusiasts, buying the bike is only part of the journey.
The hours spent searching adverts, talking to owners, visiting garages, uncovering forgotten projects and tracking down that one machine you've always wanted can be just as rewarding as owning it.
Sometimes the stories behind the hunt become the stories we tell most often. The near misses, the unexpected discoveries and the motorcycle that turned up when you were looking for something completely different.
