RIDE THE OPEN ROAD WITH US

There's something special about classic motorcycles. They're more than machines, they're pieces of history, carrying decades of stories, craftsmanship, and adventure. Whether you're a seasoned collector, a weekend rider, restoring your first project, or simply appreciate the beauty of vintage engineering, the Classic Motorcycle Club welcomes you.

Our monthly gatherings bring together enthusiasts from all walks of life to share knowledge, admire unique machines, swap stories, discuss restorations, and celebrate the heritage of motorcycling. From British singles and Japanese superbikes to American V-twins and everything in between, there's always something worth seeing and someone worth meeting.

Join a community that understands the joy of finding that elusive spare part, hearing a freshly restored engine fire up for the first time, or simply spending a Sunday morning surrounded by fellow enthusiasts.

Honda GL500 Silver Wing (1981–1982)

The Honda GL500 Silver Wing proved that touring wasn't about sheer size. Powered by a smooth 497 cc liquid‑cooled V‑twin and shaft drive, it delivered comfort, reliability, and long‑distance capability in a surprisingly compact package. Often overshadowed by its larger Gold Wing siblings, the GL500 quietly earned a reputation as one of Honda's most practical and innovative touring motorcycles.

Spec Corner:

Engine: 497 cc liquid‑cooled V‑twin
Power: ~50 hp
Transmission: 5‑speed
Final Drive: Shaft
Weight: ~240 kg
Top Speed: ~175 km/h
Oil: "Usually contained within the engine" 😏

👉 Join the Classic Motorcycle Club on the 1st Sunday of each month at 8 Ivanhoe Street, Kensington, Johannesburg, 2101, where classics like the GL500 and many more are celebrated by enthusiasts from across Gauteng.

🏍️ THE VINTAGE MOTORCYCLE CLUB OF SOUTH AFRICA – ANNUAL CENTURY RUN 🇿🇦

What a fantastic day for classic motorcycles, great company, and the spirit of motorcycling! 🏁

The Vintage Motorcycle Club of South Africa (VMC) hosted its annual Century Run, with riders setting off from Bapsfontein Hotel to Anton Smit Studio and back. A wonderful route, beautiful machines, and a shared passion for keeping South Africa’s motorcycling heritage alive!

The VMC was proudly supported by riders from the Classic Motorcycle Club (CMC), showing once again that the classic motorcycle community is about more than just the bikes — it’s about friendship, camaraderie, and a shared love for two wheels. 🤝

A big thank you to the VMC for hosting another memorable event and to all the riders who came out to support the run. It’s always great to see clubs coming together to celebrate our rich motorcycling heritage.

Here’s to many more kilometres, unforgettable rides, and keeping the classics on the road where they belong! 🏍️💨

Long live the classics! Long live the brotherhood of motorcycling!
