2001 Triumph 955i in silver on Ebay USA When the Triumph motorcycle company was reborn back in 1991, the company’s initial lineup included a big-bore Daytona model powered by an inline 4 cylinder engine. The 1st generation Daytona editions showed that the reborn company could produce a well built bike and have actually become quite…
We just had a nice RC45 here on RSBFS last week and given the rarity of these it’s a bit of a surprise that another one has popped up for sale so soon. While the previous bike was a gray import bike offered by a dealer in Florida, this one looks to be a US…
1994 Honda CBR900/Fireblade on ebay When we first started posting the CBR900RR on RSBFS a few years ago, some readers complained that it didn’t belong on RSBFS.com. The comments ranged from it not being rare enough because Honda made so many of them to the Yamaha R1 being a more pure interpretation of the small…
Back in the 1990’s Honda introduced new technology to the sportbike world at a truly dizzying pace. From 1990 to 1999, Honda USA introduced sportbike riders to the RC30, RC45, RC51, CBR600F2, VFR750, the legendary NR750 and the CBR900RR. Personally I can’t think of another manufacturer that launched so many top of class bikes over…
I have to admit the VF1000R was a bit before my time; my memories of 1985 are more about flying Deloreans than 1000cc sportbikes. For anyone else who doesn’t remember, the Honda VF series of bikes included everything from a 400cc standard to 1000cc sportbikes. The passage of time has relegated most of the lineup to…
Attention collectors, here is an opportunity to acquire a bit of unobtanium; one of the actual 1996 Kawasaki ZX-7RR bikes owned by the legendary Rob Muzzy in pristine OEM condition. The seller includes a lot of good ownership history information in their ebay listing plus the bike itself looks to be in amazing condition. Location…
Hmmm…the seller lists this one as a 2003 Ducati 999R FILA edition but a few things seem odd, including the year listed and the graphics. Perhaps someone with more direct experience can advise in the comments section…? 2003 Ducati 999R FILA edition on ebay First a bit of history; back in the early 2000’s…
The first generation VFR 750F was only offered with the uber-cool white bodywork in 1993 and it still looks quite good, especially in comparison to the other sportbike designs of the 1990’s (cough-cough-I’m-looking-at-you-1993 Suzuki GSX-750R). Fairly cheap just a few years ago, trying to find a 1993 VFR with the OEM white bodywork in good…
