Straight away I want to acknowledge that most of what of what you're about to read leaves me on extremely thin ice, and open to a lot of head shaking and tutting from people who probably know better than me on the subject of special bikes… or at least have a greater passion on the subject than me. The problem is that the whole topic is highly subjective, and therefore open to all sorts of interpretations. For starters, just how to define one bike more special than another is a problem. Is it the price tag? If so, that would rule out the humble Honda C90, a bike on which the entire Honda Motor company was built on, and without which we wouldn't have things like RC30s, Fireblades, NR750s or RCVs. Maybe the C90 and other humble bikes without which there would be no uber-bikes, are “just” a significant bike rather than a special bike - and this is why the subject is so open to disagreement. A special bike to one person is just some stickers and plaque
THINK YOU'RE SPECIAL?
