There’s nothing quite like a cool motorcycle with some family history, is there? Now, of course, not all of us come from a long line of riders, so many of us have never and will never experience that particular joy. For those that do, though, it’s something special—and it’s something that YouTube channel Merten’s Workin’s is currently in the process of exploring with Grandpa’s 1987 Kawasaki Vulcan 1500.
In this video, the bike has just been retrieved from Grandpa’s shed in Wisconsin, then taken back home to Washington state (along with Grandpa’s 1949 Ford pickup truck, which makes a brief appearance). The good news is, it’s been sitting in a shed for the past 22 or so years—so at least it’s had a roof over its head, which has to count for something, right?
