1993 Honda RS125 NF4 On eBay

This is a fantastic looking NF4 RS125 on eBay!

Bike:  1993 Honda RS125

Location:  Lexington, Kentucky

This RS125 looks to be in very good condition being finished in a “House Of Color” (Kolor) candy blue scheme with silver Honda wings.  This RS hasn’t been run in at least three years but, was run at Daytona in 2005.  The spares included with this bike include an extra cylinder, plugs, sprockets, rings, fork seals, gaskets, clutch plates and some other items.

Because it’s been sitting for so long, and these bikes are so simple, I would suggest going through it before running it just to be sure everything is as it should be.  I think I’ve said it before but, these NF4 RS’s aren’t competitive with the ’95+ NX4 RS’s.  However, these bikes are less temperamental than the later bikes and make fantastic track day bikes or vintage machines if you have a sanctioning body that has a separate class for them.  The ’93 bikes wear the same front tire as the newer bikes but, have a smaller rear wheel (By a 1/2″).  Tires can still be easily sourced and I’ve actually been told that the larger size will fit on the narrower rim–however, I have no idea how that alters the handling.  These bikes are perfect if you want to play a Gran Prix legend on a budget.  Based on the condition and spares, I would expect to see this bike go for right around $2,500.  See other RS125s we’ve featured here.  See this RS on eBay .

1988 Ikuzawa-Honda (Harris Engineering) RS600DE

Filed Under (Honda, Track Bikes For Sale) by Alex on 06-08-2010

This is a Ikuzawa-Honda RS600DE in quite nice condition on eBay!

Bike:  1988 Ikuzawa-Honda (Harris Engineering) RS600DE

Location:  Boyne City, Michigan

Mileage:  TMU

The seller states that this RS600DE is a one-owner bike, with the seller purchasing it from Ikuzawa himself.  This bike has only been run four times on the track.  The bike looks to be in very good, original, condition.  However, brake fluid has been split by the front master and rear master causing some discoloration and paint peel.  The rear swing-arm pinch bolts have also cracked the swing-arm on both sides.  I imagine Harris Engineering could reproduce you a swing-arm if you were inclined to run the bike again.  The seller states that this bike has only been run four times on track but also lists the mileage at 2k miles.

From what I can gather, the RS600DE is a parts bin bike with one-off bits where nothing OEM would fit.  The frame is a Harris Engineering unit while the motor consists of a Honda XBR500 bottom end & head with a XL600R barrel and HRC cam.  The rest of the bike is surprisingly sourced from a Suzuki RGV250, primarily, with the rear wheel assembly, front forks (The example on eBay shows conventional forks instead of USD units), front wheel and fairing (modified).  See a data sheet here (This data looks to be based on a single while the bike in question is a twin).

We aren’t privileged with many Harris specials on the open-market here in the U.S.A. but this one doesn’t disappoint.  The only issues are the two small cosmetic ones and the cracks on the rear swing-arm.  The swing-arm issue could be resolved with a new one or, possibly, a repair depending on the integrity of those points.

Bid on this Ikuzawa-Honda on eBay .

2001 Ducati 748RS With Very Little Use On eBay

Filed Under (Ducati, Track Bikes For Sale) by Alex on 20-07-2010

Tagged Under : , , , , , , , , , , , ,

This is a very good looking 748RS with 400 total miles on eBay!

Bike:  2001 Ducati 748RS

Location:  Salt Lake City, Utah

Mileage:  400mi

The seller states that this 748RS has only been used ten times with four of those times being races.  This bike has always been owned by a dealership and is still on MSO.  This bike is stock except for the silver paint and decals.  The bike has recently been inspected and is said to need nothing.

This bike is a factory Ducati Corse item for use by privateers and as such requires a large amount of routine maintenance, parts replacement, and inspection.  A lot of this is inspection but there are major issues such as inspection and replacement of the cam items at very low mileage (compared to a street bike) intervals.  Don’t get me wrong, these are fantastic bike’s but, if you think maintenance schedules and parts costs are outrageous for the R series bike’s, this one’s probably not for you.  However, if you’re looking for your own piece of Ducati Corse history and either want to use it as art, or have the pocket’s to run it, this bike IS for you!  Supposedly only around 20 of these were brought into the U.S. making them very rare but, are a factory race item so it’s to be expected.  If you’d like to bid on this nice 748RS, see it on eBay .

Two 1994 Honda RS250′s From The Same Seller In West Virgina

Filed Under (Honda, Track Bikes For Sale) by Alex on 01-07-2010

These are two very nice looking Honda RS250′s in West Virgina!

Bike:  1994 Honda RS250

Price:  $5,000 USD

Location:  West Virgina

The seller states:

I have 2 Honda RS250 GP Race Motorcycles for sale. Both bikes are 1994 models with new tires fresh engines and ready to race. The Castrol Honda bike has many upgrades such as the carbon fiber airbox, after market race exhaust pipes, Brembo radial master cylinder, Ohlins shock, updated bodywork. The crank has approximately 300 miles on it, and the pistons have about 100 miles on them. The other bike is stock and in very nice original condition. The pistons have approximately 75 miles on them, and the crank has very low mileage as well. Everything is straight and in perfect working order, and there is no damage to the chassis of either bike. Both bikes have Dunlop slicks mounted, and they are as new condition. I have many spares to go with the bikes, such as gaskets, seals, reeds, clutch parts, cylinders, heads, levers and mounts, wheels, brakes, etc.

These bikes are priced at $5,000 each which includes spares and front & rear stands.  These RS250′s are very cool (I’d take the Castrol replica over the period scheme because I’m a boy racer…) and would be a nice addition to any garage–they aren’t terribly expensive either for what you get!  See these bikes on the WERA boards here.

A nice looking NX4 RS125 with a good spares package that is ready to go!

Bike:  1996 Honda RS125

Price:  Currently on eBay for $3,000 with two days remaining and the reserve has not been met.

Location:  Great Falls, Virginia

Mileage:  200 miles on top-end

The spares for this bike mainly consist of the small things that would eat you up buying piece by piece (Jets, needles, sprockets, etc.) but it also comes with some nice items such as warmers, tires, and extra cases.  Here is a full list:

Engine Parts:

Used case with crank

New/barely used cylinder (don’t remember – it’s flawless)

Main Jets 150, 152, 155, 158, 160, 168, 170, 172, 175, 2x 178, 180, 185, 188, 190, 192, 195, 198, 200

Pilot jets: 45, 48, 2x 50

Full set of needles:  1468J, 1469J, 1371J, 1269J,1270N, 1368J, 1365J, 1271N, 1370J…too many to type

Used Crank

7 used pistons

New and used rings

Reeds

Base gaskets: 0.4, 2x 0.5, 0.6

Engine case cover gasket

O-rings

Chassis:

Front sprockets: 14, 2x 15, 2x 16, 17

Rear sprockets: 34, 35, 36, 4x 37, 38, 39, 40, 41

Stock steering damper

Foot pegs

Brake and shift levers

Clutch cable

Coil

Stock silencer

Brake pads

Fairing stays

Other good stuff:

Graves tire warmers front/rear

Set of rain tires

2-stroke oil

Many spare fasteners

I wouldn’t use the used pistons and used crank as the risk wouldn’t be worth it, but that’s just me.  This bike seems ready to go and will compete with all the other RS125′s because they haven’t changed much since ’95.  If you’d like a little 125 this is worth considering, it’ll be interesting to see what the reserve on it is.  .

1999 Aprilia Cup Bike for sale in Ohio

Filed Under (Aprilia, Sport Bikes For Sale) by Doug on 10-05-2010

1999 Aprilia Cup bike for sale with less than 1,000 miles.

Price: $4,000
Location: Marysville, Ohio

Submitted to us by Mark, the proud owner of this super nice RS250 racer. Mark has submitted many bikes to RSBFS over the past year, but sadly enough this time it’s his own that he has to submit.

This one is still dressed as it came from the factory in the classic Johnny Cash black. I like the black and silver version as well as any of the RS’s, but I bet if you’d ask me tomorrow I would probably change my mind – again!

The RS250 has a huge following and I’m sure this one will be snatched up quickly considering it has less than 1000 miles on the clock.

Have a look and take notice to how sparkly clean it is:

After much debate, I have decided I need to sell my RS250. I do not really want to sell but I have to many bills piling up that need to get paid.

99 RS Cup Bike, just under 1000 miles. Basically all stock, only upgrade is braided brake lines. I bought the bike several years ago from some one in Florida, it needed cleaned and some of the hardware replaced (corrosion). So I took it apart down to the frame, I have been reassembling and replacing hoses and hardware as needed. I have cleaned and refurbished pieces as needed as well. Bike still needs to be completed but all parts are with it. Body work is in okay condition, some nicks and scratches. No cracks or broken pieces. Bike does need a new chain and a new battery. Other than that it is all there and in good working condition. Bike comes with rear stand and standard spares box and manual. I am looking for $4000. Bike is located in Marysville OH.

So it’s all stock, has super low miles and has been meticulously cleaned. I asked Mark about the “Bike still needs to be completed but all parts are with it.” part and he replied with.

“Bike is pretty much done, I just put the front end together and hung the body work etc. for the pictures. Bike still needs a few things hung on it, all fluids and a chain. Battery would not take a charge so it needs that as well.”

So I’m guessing a few hours and about $150.00 bucks and your ready to take your 55hp beast out and beat up on some 600′s at your next local track day.

If Mark’s bike is of interest to you, you can view his original for sale post by clicking here. There are also many high-res pictures available after you make the jump.

Good luck with the sale Mark!

Cheers!

1996 Honda RS125 NX4 In California At A Very Good Price!

Filed Under (Honda, Track Bikes For Sale) by Alex on 07-05-2010

Tagged Under : , , , , , , , ,

This NX4 RS125 comes with a ton of spares and is priced very nicely!  Located in San Diego, California is a 1996 Honda RS125 finished in baby blue.  The seller states that this bike has a completely rebuilt, fresh, motor; new tires, new chain and many extras.  Looking at the photos this bike has an extensive spares package of consumables.  The photo shows five HRC pistons–if they’re all full and new–which, at $246 a piece retail, is $1,230 in spare pistons alone.  The photo also looks to show additional barrels, new and used, chains, sprockets, manuals and other assorted pieces.  Do the math, we’ve seen the bottom of early NX4′s at around $3,500-4,000 dollars for a bike in good condition with a decent spares package;  This bike is only priced at $3,500 and comes with over $1,000 in spare piston kits alone.  The ’96MY bikes are the last of the leaded head bikes but, the RS125 remained largely unchanged–there are some small changes–from ’95-present.  I honestly wish I wasn’t writing this post and were instead going to pick it up or calling for a shipper.  If you can live with baby blue or, can decently wield a spray gun have a look at this RS125 on Craigslist here.

This is a nicely modified Aprilia RS250 that is titled & registered in California!  Located in Monrovia, California is a titled 2000 Aprilia RS250 with a 15 digit VIN and 3,854 miles on the clock.  The seller states that this bike is in fantastic condition and features:  “arrow exhaust, ohlins steering dampner, Woodcraft rearsets, floating front disks, quick shifter and more!” …and… “Also a bunch of spares: levers, exhaust, alternate fork and shock springs, sprockets, etc.”  The asking price is $7,000 which I would say is correct for a California bike with lower miles, a title, some good mod’s and some spares.  See the other California RS250′s we’ve posted here.  Spring isn’t an exciting time for Southern California so hurry up and buy a decent rider to enjoy ’round!  See this RS on Craigslist here.

1996 Aprilia RS250 Titled & Registered in California

This is a modified RS250 that is titled & registered in Central California!  Located in Sacramento, California is a 1996 Aprilia RS250 with 27,000km (16,777mi).  This bike has been re-painted red, fitted with a 2007 GSX-R1000R front end, new stem bearings and Brembo RCS 19 brake master.  However, the seller believes that this bike has low compression and needs a top end.  The asking price for this bike is extremely high at $8,000 based on miles and condition.  It does have some mods that are worth some money but not what this seller is asking.  I do applaud the seller for posting some large pictures in the Craigslist ad which link to their Photobucket account.  See the photos here.  See the Craigslist ad here.

2004 Aprilia RS250 Cup Bike With Less Than 400 Miles In Texas

Filed Under (Aprilia, Track Bikes For Sale) by Alex on 27-04-2010

Tagged Under : , , , , , , , ,

This RS250 has less than 400 original miles total.  Located in El Paso, Texas is a 2004 Aprilia RS250 Cup bike with a 17 digit VIN but, no title.  The seller states that this bike has only 400 miles and has been kept in storage for the last six years with only occasional trips around the block to keep things lubed.  The bike does have some scrapes, holes drilled in the fairings from wood-blocks to protect them–the thought process on that one–and a bar end is missing.  The asking price is $6,000 putting it at the highest end for the RS250 Cup bikes we’ve seen.  This bike does have low miles and is the last year of production but, with the fairing damage it isn’t in museum condition as-is.  Some information about the Aprilia Cup can be found here.  If you’re interested see this bike on Craigslist here.
