Hi from the UK, don't know about affordable, CBX and RC30's over here are astrnomical prices.

Suzuki Bandit (oil cooled)
early -mid noughties GSX (K5 my fave) and Fireblades
SV650
B-King
VFR750 (NC36)

Zephyr 750 and 1100 of course

For me, 1st gen Hayabusa, (year 2000 model - 340km/h, with no speed limiter). Only the sky is the limit on German Highways.

Affordable now. Or affordable now compared to what they will be worth in 20 years!!!!!

I still have a real soft spot for two strokes. Trying to find a box stock RZV500 or a Rg500 is getting close to damn near impossible!!!!!

Now just finding a Kawasaki KR-1r 250 is like finding a unicorn!!!!!!

RZV500


RG500


KR-1r


I would sell my soul to own one!!!!

Predicting the future accurately is hard.
CBX, classic and desirable for years.
GL1000 not widely desired, my guess never will be.
H1, H2 fantastic rise past 14 years.

2006 a 73 H1 #2 condition $2400
2006 a 73 H2 #2 condition $3900

Riders today are interested in the bikes of their youth. I think the same trend will be present in 40 or so years. Nowadays adventure bikes are quite popular and I suspect will be the most sought after classic bikes in 2060.

This one caught my eye today. Very nice!

Original R1s. Though prices are already getting on the high side. I always liked the YZF 750 R and theyre still cheap as chips.

I rode a friends Gamma a couple of years ago. I was glad to get back on my big bike. The 500 was fun, but it's not for me.

Same guy has a complete collection of Kawasaki triples including a (now sold) factory race bike H1-r . A couple of RDs an RZ 350 and his "water buffalo". Oh, also a RE5 back in there somewhere.

VMax. Especially the early years.
