**Parts Availability**: One of the biggest challenges is finding parts. With older bikes, some components can become really hard to track down, and you might have to search online or hit up salvage yards.

**Mechanical Know-How**: Older motorcycles often require more hands-on maintenance. If you're not mechanically inclined, it can be tough to keep everything running smoothly. You might need to learn a few tricks or take a class!

**Upgrading Technology**: Newer bikes have all sorts of tech that older models just don’t have. So, if you’re used to modern conveniences, it can be a bit of a shock going back to basics.

**Regular Maintenance**: Older bikes often need more frequent maintenance. Things like oil changes, brake adjustments, and tuning can become a regular part of your routine, which can be a hassle if you’re not into that.

**Electrical Issues**: The wiring and electrical systems on older bikes can be pretty finicky. You might find yourself dealing with quirky electrical problems that can be frustrating to troubleshoot.
