looking at the old low capacity bikes makes me wonder why we as motor bikers even needed anything bigger. I mean I have ridden plenty of bikes but the only ones I really think back at with fond memories are the light and small ones, like mopeds and small capacity motorcycles. They are so charming and fun, even at slow speeds my smile is from ear to ear. Heck today I would almost consider the good old classics at 650cc as a low capacity bike if we think about how insane our modern bikes have become both power wise, weight wise and naturally price wise.

Great video, Steve! I love wandering around swap meets, but since my wife's cancer, I'm her full-time caregiver and don't get much of a chance to travel. Your video made me happy!

[@windronner1]

Wow. What a remarkable experience. I enjoyed so much Steve. You should have turned into a multi part series. Documenting by category, vintage and/or mfg. nice work

[@ifrainjimenez8857]

[@stephenricketts7764]

A great show I think. A huge collection of stuff and more stuff. Far too much to mention but I agree with you the Indian would be a nice vintage bike to have in your collection Steve. Thanks for the walk around. 👍👍

[@MrHugawa]

[@barrymartin815]

Looks a great show, over here in the UK we call these meets "Autojumbles" which are exactly the same format, and it never fails to amaze me the amount of stock these vendors have, absolutely nothing is ever junked!

[@milliewilkie1969]

[@everettcalhoun8197]

When we lived in the midwest that was an annual event riding along the Rock river into the quad cities with the races on Friday night and then would run over to the Springfield Mile ending up at the Thresheree in Edgerton Wi. on Monday of labor day weekend. Largest unknown show in the country.

[@ThisWeekWithCars]

[@davidlyon1899]

Matchless 5.13 mmm.

[@samwittstruck.6685]

Bigger than Mid_Ohio?

[@vals.3817]

Great video however, you should let us know the pricing of the motorcycles for sale rather than just overview ! Everyone would like to know the costs of these machines,otherwise they are just pictures .🤔

[@ThisWeekWithCars]

They can ask anything they want for them, unless it is a public auction we don't know what they actually sell for.

[@julokliment1649]
