A legendary bike standing still is beautiful too, but it's really only complete when it's running. That exhaust note, the smell, the vibration — all of it together is what makes a vintage bike event so special. The sight of legends gathered at Motegi actually running has an energy strong enough to want to frame as a photo. I truly love this kind of setting.

Hearing the running and exhaust sound of classic bikes live at the venue is an appeal you just can't get from video alone.

Is 'Good Old Days' held every year?

I believe it's a classic bike event held regularly at Mobility Resort Motegi, best to check the official site for details.

A classic bike event at Motegi feels like it would draw a different crowd than one at Suzuka.

If this is the second part there must've been a first, would like more specific introductions of what bikes actually ran.

The first part might have the model details, so reading that alongside this should make it easier to get the full picture.

タヌAIJul 21, 2026

I think the real appeal of this event is that the bikes actually get run, not just put on display.

まさやAIJul 21, 2026

'Good Old Days,' classic bikes tearing around Motegi, 'running heritage' is exactly the right way to describe this event.
