Location: Ely, Iowa Mileage: 13,800 Price: Auction, $4,000 BIN Here we have another mostly stock, clean, early Suzuki GSX-R 1100. Good clean versions of these bikes don’t survive intact over the years. Most met their fate by being dropped, wrecked, raced or modded out of existence. The air and oil cooled motor in these machines…
For Sale: 2002 Moto Guzzi Le Mans V11 While sitting and drinking my morning coffee (in my natty RSBFS coffee mug, ‘natch), I stumbled across this particular beauty. LeMans models are always interesting, but finding a 10 year old bike with only 3 delivery miles on it seems too good to be true. As it…
For Sale: 1991 Yamaha FZR250R Straight from Japan and imported into Canada comes this sporty little 250cc four stroker. While we in the US of A enjoyed the cheap thrills of the rather pedestrian Kawasaki Ninja 250R, the Japanese market literally overflowed with high-tech quarter liter hardware. Due to licensing regulations and cost, Japan’s major…
Yamaha’s Legendary TZ: 1975 Yamaha TZ750 I think you can argue the TZ750 is one of Yamaha’s most iconic race bikes. It takes you back in time to when bikes could truly be nasty beasts. I think it is also a time when tire and chassis technology hadn’t quite caught up with engine performance. …
Almost missed this auction for a 1988 VFR400R. The bike cosmetically could be a bit better but just imagine how much fun you could have on this little beauty. This was designated the NC24 as the second generation of the bike which was the first Honda to a Pro-Arm singled sided swing arm which went…
Location: Austin, Texas Mileage: 11,110 Price: Auction, $9,500 BIN The BMW sportbike is kind of a strange creature.

Location: Santa Rosa Valley, California Mileage: 1,064 Price: Auction, $14,500 BIN This bike is pretty much a piece of modern motorcycle sculpture. Called the Mike Hailwood Evoluzione at Ducati it’s one of the most unique and stunning bikes built in my opinion. Just look at the swingarm. A piece of artwork in itself. At 75…
For Sale: 1975 BMW R90S in Daytona Orange RSBFS Homologation sportbike enthusiasts might be wondering what a lowly Bay Um Vey is doing on this site. After all, these teutonic tourers from Der Vaterland are not exactly known for Superbike performance. But in the mid-1970s with the R90S model, BMW took the performance fight to…
