11TH ANNUAL BARBER VINTAGE FESTIVAL

'80s are really popular," he says. "I have some from
the 1950s, but they just don't sell. I guess the guys
who were interested in the bikes from the '30s,
'40s and '50s just aren't around anymore."
As far as the holy grail of motorcycle maga-
zine collectors he says first editions are rare and
popular and the June 1973 Cycle Guide, which
features the infamous fiery Mark Brelsford Day-
tona crash.
And the most he's ever sold? "One guys bought
$2300 worth of magazines off me once," he says
with a smile, "but mostly it's people buying one or
two issues at a time."
CBX Racer
There were a lot of father-and-son stories at the
Barber Festival this year. The winners of the An-
tique Motorcycle Club of America's "Best in Show"
was an Indian restored by a father-and-son team,
and one of the road-race bikes that made you do a
double-take at Barber was the Honda CBX raced
by Will Brint. The CBX was built by Bill Brint, owner
of specialty shop Tim's CBX in Cornelia, Georgia.
When asked what it felt like to race the six-cylin-
der beast, Will said with a smile, "Heavy. It's a lot
of work, but a lot of fun, too. I guess I don't know
any better."
