So what is your birth year bike?
In the interests of friendliness the youngsters can also post non classic pics (just this once)

This bike fits the COOL category better than I do...Harley Davidson XR750 was born the same year I was...
Kind of fun finding this bit of trivia...

*Although technically, the R75/5 was born a year before I was, and the actual bike in the pic was born a year after.
**Gotta give creds to bikeexif, and Juan Ramón Ortega, who made and owns it.
