I hink the best looking motorcycle ever made is the mid 70s R 90/R 100.

Here's a picture the original owner took a few years ago...still looks as good, or better, today!

İmage

It's half my age LOL!

I know I said anyone 75+ was a badass... But I think we can round up in your case. Man I hope I'm still riding at 71.

RE: Average CB1100 Rider Age
37 y/o here. I had my purchase down to either the cb11, cb500f, or street triple. The cb500f is the most economical and fit me really well but I wanted to upgrade more from my old suzy gs500e. The street triple would have been a blast, but the cb11 I expect to last me a very very long time and, of course, it is gorgeous.

Oh yeah forgot: the duc 696 squashed my nether regions.

Most of my riding friends are younger than I, but one is over 75! He's still pretty sharp, too, and a good rider. His wife asked him to stop riding across the US which he did once and sometimes more a year up until a year or so ago. He sold his 1300ST for something lighter, a V-Strom DL650. Even though he works out at the gym several days a week, he felt the need for something not quite so heavy. Can't blame him!
