I rode a '68 Bonneville for 10 years. At one point for one year it was my
only vehicle, and it never let me down except it would mercifully would fail
to start when the temp dropped below 45F. In Illinois (BTW our new State
slogan is A Whole Lot of State for the Money) this meant from November to
March,
but in retrospect I must consider this a personal safety feature, because I
was shivering so bad I couldn't work the clutch.

You get over that after you've had to push one of the mother's up hill and
down hill through the mountains for 20 miles to get it home when it has quit
running for no apparent reason. After that the image of an old Norton or
Velocette invokes your pain and misery button. ;-)
