I'm with you. This line spells out the demographic for this article: I don't think I would want to take any of these for long rides, but for grabbing groceries or something, I think any one of these would be fun to have. I just checked craigslist to see if there were any Bultacos for sale. There are two-ish. I don't ever recall seeing one in person though. After checking the availability of some of those other models on CL, it looks like people are trying to cash in on people who are into cafe racer conversions. I think it's a nice look, but hard on the balls, not to mention a bit strange to see motorcycles as fashion accessories. Just for kicks, I would like to see someone make a cafe racer out of a Minsk: I'm pretty sure they're only in former Soviet countries though. A few years ago I almost bought one, until a friend told me that it was probably being sold because they don't run well in hot weather. Also, they leak oil all over the place.Vintage motorcycles are a timeless icon of cool and style. With the right bike, you can save some serious cash and come away with a fast and reliable machine that commands attention.
