For me the term classic is more the effect the bike had rather than age.
Just like cars just because it is old does not make it special.
Some bikes were trend setters the first or last of their blood line.
one year wonders ect.
look at it like this No one gets excited about a 1985 goldwing they would almost have to pay you to take it, but any 1985 HD would still have and intrested following.
If you had one of the first EVO's that would be a bike of intrest or the first or last Knuckle,pan .
================================================== ======
Classic means different things to different people. Smitty and I seem to be alike on this. '53-'54 Chevys are not usually considered classic '55-'57's are almost always referred to as classics. My '68 shovelhead is not a classic because it's made up of so many different year parts.

In Pennsylvania a classic is anything that is at least 25 years old.
