Picking out some vintage motocross bikes for sale ? well be careful. A vintage bike can be a brilliant buy or a millstone around your neck. Never buy in haste, as there could be an enormous amount of work on an older bike. Also decide is it worth the hours of work to restore the bike (unless it’s restored already) in which case you need to be sure it’s been done correctly as you'll be paying premium prices.
