Yeah, while names like BSA, Triumph and Norton all recall the age of classic british motorcycling. The build quality was p*ss soor, and Triumphs used to need an oil well just to keep running. As much as I lust after an original Bonny, I also know they where, well, scrappers compaired to Japanese bikes of the time. Even today, you want a bike that will run with reasonable reliability, then buy Japanese.
