Why do some slow, clunky, or objectively flawed motorcycles become absolute legends, while technically superior bikes are forgotten?
On this episode of the Bore and Stoke podcast, Ryan, Dennis, and Troy break down the mysterious recipe behind “Cult Classic” motorcycles.
Dennis kicks things off with a look at some news topics to kick things off, including a new Suzuki with an old Suzuki engine, plus some corporate news from Indian and Harley. Then, Ryan and Troy talk about cult bikes: what is it about these machines on the road (or trail) that converts mechanical flaws into “personality”?
The guys debate the fine line between true character and overhyped nostalgia, call out a few famous cult bikes that they think are wildly overrated, and draft their picks for future cult classics you should buy right now before prices skyrocket.
Drop a comment below: What motorcycle do you think is a true cult classic, and which one is overhyped garbage?
