Responsible Hoarder

I ran into this guy's site and was impressed by the amount of bikes he has collected over the past thirty years. Pretty much what some of us here have started doing but only in the last 10 years. I only have three bikes so I don't consider myself a hoarder and therefore not in need of any counseling, lol. This guy started collecting when these bikes were not yet classics and half of them purchased new from the dealership. Albeit, leftover models at a discount.

His biggest mistake was not picking up a Z1 back in the day. He could have picked one up an early Z in the early eighties for next to nothing. I guess he got into the big Suzukis instead.
