Location: Brazil, Indiana Mileage: 4,597 Price: Auction, $2,550 No Reserve! I can only imagine that about everything that can be written about the FZR400 has been written here at RSBFS. The limited time in the US market, the weight, handling, and power for a 400cc machine. Thing is, regardless of when they were written, all…
GP Blood Line: 1998 Yamaha TZ250 It has to be a good sign when a bike looks fast just sitting there. I wonder how many TZ’s have launched riders into the professional ranks? I know one for sure as Colin Edwards old TZ250 is on display at the Barber Motorcycle Museum. While for years they…
Location: Long Grove, Illinois Mileage: 28,071 Price: Auction, BIN $6,000 Well, it seems the big brother in the FZR lineup has shown up for auction. Here’s the ’89 Yamaha FZR 1000. Looks a lot like the FZR 600 (Deltabox frame, great paint/graphics) posted just days ago on RSBFS, but when you twist the throttle (five-valve-per-cylinder…
2006 Yamaha YZF-R1 50th Anniversary LE #260 of 500 Location: Chandler, AZ Mileage: 19,500 Price: $9,250 with reserve I can definitely see myself rock’n one of these at some point before I get old and arthritis sets in. Everyone that I’ve talked, who owns one, says they absolutely love it and it’s a rocket ship…
Location: Minnetonka, Minnesota Mileage: 4,985 Price: Auction, BIN $3,400 Here we have a clean, non-modified 1993 Yamaha FZR 600. And it’s only racked up 4,985 miles to date. Many may say that a ’93 FZR 600 is not be that rare of a bike. But one with low mileage and this clean does not come…
Late 80’s Stroker Gem: 1987 Yamaha TZR250 Oh my, 1987 was when the race replica wars just started to heat up. For a scant few years the Japanese manufactures would win buyers with small cc bikes that featured trickle down GP technology that shined on the track. You can see the wave building in this…
These lovely bikes don’t appear very often and we posted one last week that was available in California. This week we find one on the East Coast. It seems the owner likes his 2 strokes as he intimates that he has a couple more RZ500’s and there is an RZ350 and a Suzuki RGV in…
Yep, did you see how I snuck that in there? I’ve started a new site just for cafe bikes and conversions for sale. I can’t deny that I’m on the bus and love what they represent. But for the most part, we try to only post original or lightly modified machines on both Rare SportBikes…
