I shouldn't keep the GSXR really but it's stone reliable and I still love it for the occasional blast. It's not like it's depreciating either. If I ever get a bit more disposable income, I can do some big tracks on it too.
In a break from regular programming, I've roped myself in to help my mate fix up two 1968 Honda CL175s for a classic bike rally in No-Cal in June. He just picked up a matching pair that have been sat in a shed for 15 years. They boast (an actually very impressive) 20hp @ 10k rpm from new!
I've suggested that if we get them going well we should fit vintage race rubber and annoy all the Triumph crowd...up to about 55 at least....
