In the wild west days before Harley-Davidson had taken a proprietary interest in Buell, the race engineer and developer designed an amazing string of sport-oriented machines. Very rare these days, the RS1200 is a memorable low production special, almost handcrafted in appearance with interesting design elements in every system. 1990 Buell RS1200 for sale on…
Today’s Harley-Davidson RR250 may be new to most of you. We don’t get the opportunity to feature Harley-Davidson motorcycles on this site too often, unless we’re talking about throbbing pushrod v-twins hiding in quirky Buells. And all the “boat-anchor” jokes aside, Harley has plenty of racing heritage, although mostly outside of what interests most of…
Put the words “racer” and “HD” together in a sentence and visions of dirt tracking will likely come to mind. If road racing jumped into your head, it was likely a smokey failure or a Buell – or both. Truth be told, The Motor Company’s history with sport bikes and racing same has been a…

Having read reader comments I know the RSBFS masses are a varied bunch with wide ranging tastes. This XR1200 is residing over in the…
Between 1960 and 1978 Harley Davidson controlled first and owned later, an Italian firm in the area of Varese. This wasn’t MV Agusta which eventually was also owned (for a very short time though) by HD. Instead, it was called Aermacchi. Just like MV Agusta, also Aermacchi used to be in the aerospace business. After…
Ring A Ding HD: 1976 Harley Davidson 250RR (Aermacchi) Volley balls and two strokes: the 70’s were an interesting time for AMF Harley Davidson. It is kind of easy to joke and poke fun but at least HD was dabbling in racing/sport bikes which is more than can be said nowadays. Buell barely survived…
