Welcome to the long weekend – RSBFS style! Since long weekends are all about projects, here are a pair of 400cc collectables in need of a little loving. While not the pristine fare that normally graces our pages, these two micro rockets deserve a good home if only to remind us that bigger is not…
Location: Sutton, West Virginia Mileage: 13,083 Price: Auction, currently $4,150 Another killer 250 two stroke. I love it when these pop up. RSBFS featured a good looking NSR250 MC18 a few days back and now we have this – an ’89 TZR250 3MA with the rare and awesome parallel twin, not a V. Still a…
Location: Ben Lomond, California Mileage: 6,200 Price: Auction, currently $13,601 Umm, anyone out there interested in a rare Ducati? We see the F1 on RSBFS on a fairly regular basis.

Regardless of your style preference, the Ducati 999 was a considerable step forward on the performance scale. The ergos became more reasonable…
Location: Daleville, Virginia Mileage: 18,665 Price: Auction, $9,000 BIN The Honda VF1000R is a well known bike on RSBFS. Built in the era when sport bikes were really coming into their own, the VF1000R brought something new to the game as a bridge in the Interceptor and eventual VFR/RC30 line. All of these bikes are…
