Every year in October, two-wheeled dinosaurs descend on Luckenbach, Texas, for a vintage and antique motorcycle rally. Ev- ery year the gathering gets larger and the glass trophies for first place get more coveted. This year was the largest show yet with close to 150 bikes in the show and thousands in the parking lot; it was an amazing sea of chrome in this little Texas town. The Harvest Classic was started by Russell and Kathy Duke, who helped organize the Central Texas Motorcycle Charities, a group of friends who have been affected by pediatric cancer; the

With others like Mark Seely, who brought out his supercharged Honda 305 Dream that holds a land speed record, it is an exciting place to meet other vintage motorheads and see great examples of bikes.

rally is in memory of Emma Duke who lost her fight with cancer, but her memory lives on. All procreeds from this rally are donated to the Candlelighters, a group that provides counseling, Christmas toys, airline tickets and other support for out-of-town treatment. The 2009 show brought out many fine examples of yesterday’s motorcycles. Some Austin area VJMC members brought out some great examples of vintage Japanese iron. Kim Tucker

February 2010 www.vjmc.org 11 In early October 2009, the Arizona Chapter of the VJMC had an informal gathering at the Scottsdale Pa- vilions, in conjuction with the Arizona Vintage Mo- torcross Racers Association (AVDRA). They are a local chapter of a national group with a nationwide series of motorcross races for vintage motorcycles. The Scottsdale Pavilions is a place where there has been a huge vintage and custom car show every Saturday night for more than 15 years. The last 10 years there have been a significant number of motorcycles that gather in an area set aside for them. The local VJMC members showed up in force. One of the highlights of the eve- ning was the first showing of Bart Iden’s recently restored 1966 Suzuki X6 Hustler.

Some of the bikes were well used racers and some were beautiful show bikes. How- ever, the most stunning off road bike present was VJMC member Bill Bratt’s 1974 Honda CR125M Elsinore. Between the two groups there were 51 vintage bikes on display mixed in with more than 100 late model bikes and several hundred spectators. This is the second time the Arizona VJMC has joined with another vintage club to put on a show. The idea of joining with other local vintage bike groups is a great way to have bigger events, build bridges to other clubs and share the workload. Thanks to all the VJMC members who helped make this event happen.

By Robbie Jenkins rowing up in a family of all girls, we were expected to share everything — clothes, a dog, a bicycle, etc. I never had one thing I could call my own, until one day in 1966, I went to Hillsboro Honda in Hillsboro, Ill., and purchased a 1966 Honda Dream. I remember the day as if it were yesterday. There was snow on the ground, but I proceeded to ride my Honda home. It was a 150cc. I had never ridden alone before that day. My husband, Bill, decided he would buy one so we could ride together. He bought a 305 Honda Dream, a 1965. Within a few days of purchasing my bike I rode it out to the license department in order to get my motorcycle license. The gentleman looked at me and asked, “Did you ride that motorcycle out here in this snow?” When I told him I did, he used some colorful language and proceeded to tell me, “If you rode that thing out here in this weather, you certainly know how to handle it. I am just going Gto give you your license.” 20 www.vjmc.org February 2010 These were taken in 1966 showing Bill on his 1965 Honda 305 with Robbie on her CA95 Honda Dream. Bill and I had two sons, Joe, 9, a very important part of my life, and be a hog pen. We picked it up in small and Danny, 5. We would bundle up our something I have held very precious to pieces.

time inside my forehead. Not knowing what the out- come might be, I again thought of my Honda Dream. I spoke to our son Joe and asked him to talk to his friend Norman Cubley (who is like a faimly member to us) and tell him if he would put my motorcycle back together again and let me ride it one more time before I died that I would give it to him. The next day I asked my son if Norman wanted to do that for me. Joe said, “No, Mom, I didn’t ask him. We are going to put that motorcycle back together ourselves.” This put some sunshine in my days ahead. I began to save every penny I could to buy parts when we needed them. Bill, Joe and I begin cleaning what parts we had and sorting them so we would know what had to be ordered. This was the beginning of September 2008. We set up tables and we continued to clean, polish, sort and plan on what to do first. My husband worked as a welder, mechanic and rebuilding heavy equipment prior to retirement. This was a great asset

22 www.vjmc.org February 2010 and he was the major force in putting the motorcycle back together. We decided a manual was the first thing we needed so the order was sent off for that. As time went on we had many obstacles but we met them head on. People were great in helping us to find parts we needed. Ebay was a great source also. I cannot leave out H&H Honda in Harrisburg, Ill., who were so helpful in finding parts that I needed. I had my chrom- ing done at Brown’s Plating in Paducah, Ky. I paid $650 for my bike in 1966. To restore it, I paid well over $4,000. I took pictures of each step we took restoring this motorcycle and I am ever so glad I did. I now have a book of memories along with the restored bike. On May 23, 2009, I sat on my motorcycle and rode it for the first time in many years. In October, I entered the Dream in a car, truck, and motorcycle show at the annual Flu- orspar Festival and won a plaque for one of the top three motorcycles and won the trophy for the best bike. During the time my motorcycle was stored in boxes, my husband and I had purchased matching Honda four wheelers in about 1989. In about 1985, we bought matching Honda Sprees. In 1993, we bought matching Honda Elite scooters. We have always loved our Hondas. One of my dreams has finally been ful- filled by having my 1966 Dream restored. It only has 13,000 actual miles on it. I guess you never get to old to dream. I am now 70, and still have another dream for a new Honda trike. That dream may never come true, but it never hurts to dream. ●

This ultimately led me to my belief that the collection should This turbo model was made for two years, the second year have all of the five turbos that were made during this period, start- having the Molly-design paint job (like mine). This Z1RTC was also made in various stages and the model that I have is stage three, in which the engine was balanced out and the crank was forged all by the factory, along with several other modifications. The second turbo that I purchased was the 1983 Suzuki XN- 85. This is a great looking motorcycle and was written up in the period magazines for its superior sport-type handling, which is absolutely a fact. Some of the styling cues from this motorcycle were taken from the great design of the first year Suzuki Katana. However, when you ride this bike you quickly realize that it doesn’t have that “kick in the pants” from the turbo that you would be expecting. I suspect that it doesn’t have much extra power and zip over a non-

The third turbo that I purchased was the 1982 Ya- maha Turbo Seca; this bike has very pretty lines, but when you are riding it doesn’t give any in- dication of the turbo personality. The acceleration is very linear and there is no major kick at a certain rpm where the turbo boost would show a jolt in the torque and acceleration. The fourth turbo that I purchased is the 1985 Kawasaki Turbo 750cc and is probably one of the most interesting bikes of the five — every characteristic of it would be considered superior. This would include the workmanship, handling, power curve (plenty big kick in the pants when the turbo cuts in) extremely dependable and a wonderful color scheme with black chrome exhaust. When it comes to price to value against today’s current 1985 Kawasaki market, I believe that this is the biggest bargain that 750cc turbo. anybody can find in a collector’s bike. There seems to be a continuous run of these on eBay and they are always priced at a bargain level.

It is a very comfortable bike and would make a great touring bike as well as being a very rare collectible. I think that all the iconic motorcycles from the ‘70s and ‘80s are currently priced in the bargain basement. I would encourage anybody that has an interest in the 1970s and 1980s bikes to purchase the best motorcycle that they can of the brand and type that they like and try to be consistent in their collecting. In my collecting I not only strive to get the iconic motorcycles, but also the largest displacement in that particular series.

Two CBXes hit $10,000 By Roger Smith VJMC PR director

26 www.vjmc.org February 2010 On January 7-9, the South Point Hotel complex in Las Vegas again hosted the MidAmerica Auc- tions annual vintage motorcycle auction. After 19 years in Las Ve- gas, this event has become the world’s largest antique motorcycle auction. I watched the MidAmerica team smoothly process more than 400 beautiful bikes that crossed the auction stage this year. After three days, it was evi- dent that beautiful vintage motorcycles have kept their value even in these depressed economic times. MidAmerica helps keep the energy and interest at a high level from the time you register as a buyer or seller, months before the actual A small group of members and officers discuss the future auction.

The following list of results is for Japanese bikes that sold at the auction; there were only a few Japanese bikes that didn’t go to a new owner. Japanese bikes are coming into their own. There is no doubt that bikes like this year’s 1950 Vincent Black Shadow (that did not sell with a top bid of $240,000) are still where the big dollars are. But two Honda CBXes sold for $10,000, a 1982 Honda Paris Dakar XLV sold for $11,500 and the “little” bikes still shock some observers: A 1969 Honda Z50A Minitrail sold for $4,900, while a 1968 version of the same bike changed hands for $3,250. It wouldn’t be a bad time to have a garage filled with these small imports. Being able to spend three days in the MidAmerica auction sphere is definitely vintage biker heaven. From Thursday night, when visitors are invited to attend a din- ner auction, through Saturday afternoon, hundreds of valuable original and restored bikes crossed the stage with new owners waiting. This is the second year that Gene Romero’s West Coast Flat Track Series held an Indoor Short Track Race in the South Point complex. It couldn’t have been more convenient.

Jack Stein, VJMC Arizona field rep and a new VJMC board member, not only set up and manned a most lively

On Saturday morning before the auction began, Jack hosted members from as far away as Canada and Michigan. Next up for MidAmerica is their 21st Annual Minne- sota Auction on May 8. A new event this year is an auction on June 12 at the Rhinebeck Grand National Meet (June 11-13) in Rhinebeck, N.Y. They will also return to Pebble Beach, Calif., on Aug. 13-15.
