I deliberately have never swung a leg over one for fear, I'd have to buy one...
...and I'd need to find a judge dredd helmet...

I seriously doubt that will ever happen except perhaps in california. They don't "ban" antique cars now and there are a lot more of them than there ever will be antique motorcycles. The fact is that these sort of vehicles contribute to an immeasurably minute amount of particulate and gasses to the atmosphere compared to what comes out of the exhaust of 100's of millions of cars, buses, trains and aircraft every day in the world.... not to mention volcanoes which don;t seem to care anything about violating emission standards.

Can you put tall bars on those? While its cool enough, I just don't like the sport(ish) bike hunched over riding position anymore.

I think the bars would be OK if it had either forward controls or floor boards.

Ummm... no... no touch XDiavel S; actual engineers were involved, and set that ride up correctly.
