Ya honestly man, its like when I was into old VWs. The local hot rod guys would always bust my balls for messing with "hippy garbage" or Id hear "oh, VWs are a good start". In the end, I had fun working on them, and met a ton of killer people. Some cats just dont dig or cant afford "real" bikes. To each their own is right. As long as what you do doesnt involve a shitty attitude or youre not fucking up someone elses vibe, youre all good in my book. Hell, if I could afford it my ass would be restoring a vintage Vespa. Always thought they'd be fun to dick around town on, ya know?
