Yes both nice but the RC truly game changing.

Are u mixing up NC and RC as well? Thought u could only get NC30/35 and the 45 was an RC?

Sorry No just put that badly

I meant I’d like an RC45, underrated as it’s biggest fault was that it wasn’t an RC30

Oh and someone brought out a 916 which again rewrote the book

That’s an interesting view. I had two RC45’s from new and loved them. Just a bit physically small for me although we toured a lot of Western Europe on them. However: the same press/ mags that slaughtered them in the 90’s now revere them as “icons”, whatever that means. I had L745 RVF and P4 RVF in turn. When parked up at race meetings you could always hear the “experts” telling their mates that RC45’s were crap ‘cause Bike mag said so.
Cheers!

Does this count as a Classic or Vintage ?

Bought this R100 a few months ago, unused for nigh on 20 years, just 13,000m and one owner since 1984.....described as immaculate, I didn't have the heart to tell him it probably was when he put it in the shed, but it certainly wasn't when I bought it. Hopefully going to put a few miles on it very soon

Then this yamaha came up....I foolishly sold the best one I've ever seen.....this one is a replacement, but it's a 'stand off'.. it looks just right from twenty feet away....half a pound of rust and crap came out of the tank, hopefully in a few months she will be actually as good as she looks from a distance

DKW NZ 250

My recent purchase and oldest classic is this 1939 DKW. She all runs, just a gentle recommission and no restoration. Found an interesting decal under the numberplate hinting at a more sinister past life.
 
Tell us more about the decal and sinister past? German army ww2?
