uh this anti-dive situation never really quite made it into the future for obvious reasons and uh yeah the front brake feel on that bike makes you feel like fred flintstone would have had a better time stopping it for sure and it just makes you appreciate how good modern bikes are nowadays man these bikes are incredible they turn on run work they got snappy power flicking beautifully we've figured out a lot about motorcycles in these last NUMBER_TOKEN or NUMBER_TOKEN years or so and we've segmented them all into very specific niche tools but i think we got to talk to the owners of these bikes and see what they think about them yeah let's do it all right folks we're back here in the shop after riding these bikes around with the owners and i have a lot to say about how far motorcycles have come and the first thing oh this one's wanting to go out on its own now i've got some ghosts in the shop but the first thing i want to say is josh your bike's a bit of a death trap i have to be perfectly honest with you front brakes especially have come a long way on motorcycles both spite and i coming into corners we're kind of pooping ourselves a little bit is that what you feel on this bike absolutely absolutely front and rear brake and engine braking are all required to hustle this thing down from high speed yeah but i was surprised at how nimble it felt though uh with these new uh set of rubbers you got on there i i felt like side to side it wasn't as bad as i thought it would be really yeah yeah absolutely uh there are some things that they had gotten pretty well in this bike a lot of things they hadn't figured out yet yeah for sure yeah and in comparison though whitney the spark pelin so flickable so nimble so much fun to ride it's gotta be one of the reasons you love the bike right oh my gosh a hundred percent you know but there is a part of the little bit of poop in your pants that is the allure of riding a vintage motorcycle i agree yeah i forgot what that's like with my my modern bikes now yeah because you've owned a couple of vintage bikes i had a NUMBER_TOKEN gs NUMBER_TOKEN and that made me scared all the time yeah the other thing about this older bike that really got to me was the gear lever uh you told me about this before i left every shift had to be deliberate thoughtful otherwise you had to go for the the double tap to make sure it was going where needed to go yeah coming in the corners was a little scary because i was like where the hell is my i was like i can't get the gear i want right do you feel that too on the mic right yeah and that's a that's a mechanical error going on right now i don't know if that's completely related to the clutch we know it needs a new clutch right now yeah um but yeah there's weird things that happens with the lever that i haven't sorted out just yet um but kind of some of the charm it's just you know you you got to know what you're doing you got to be prepared and if i want to go hustle around the street this is not the bike that
