It is not often you come across a one owner bike pushing 30 years of age. That is loyalty my friends. And it is equally rare to come across a wonderful gray-market two stroke like an RZ500 with clean CA title. 1984 Yamaha RZ500 in California for sale on eBay This bike is ticking all…
We haven’t had an installment of the Parts Bin in quite some time. I guess everyone has been hording the factory take offs. This seller in the U.K. has some interesting bits from Crescent Suzuki that he claims are from Tom Sykes BSB GSX-R. Here is the list of goodies: Ex crescent Race Frame with…
I’ll come clean; to me, this is about as exciting has adding Ohlins and Termignoni’s to a shopping cart but RSBFS has taught me to appreciated all variations of sport bikes. Having read reader comments I know the RSBFS masses are a varied bunch with wide ranging tastes. This XR1200 is residing over in the…
Shingle Springs, CA – 12,400mi – $6,500 BIN It is no doubt that the “GSX-R” is one of the most iconic names in sport bike history and is should be as the name has been around for over 25 years. Suzuki is a tiny company compared to the like of Honda and Yamaha, but one…
Located in Japan is an ultra-rare (at least in the US) aluminum framed RZV500R. Like most bikes we see from this part of the world, some wear, tear and weathering are par for the course. Not listed as pristine, far from perfect and far, far away from state side smoker fans, this one will have…
If a bike like this can’t get your heart beating faster I don’t know what will. You don’t even have to be into race or vintage bikes to appreciate the attention to detail and engineering excellence here. We use the term “engineering art” with Bimota alot but this Yosh/Honda just stepped up to the top of the podium as…
Update 9.5.2013: Failing to sell the first time this past December for $6700, it’s back with a higher buy-it-now of $7800! Links updated, -dc Just in time for a Christmas shipment to the States is this 1995 Honda NSR 250 SP MC28 in Rothmans colors. The seller claims a PGM upgrade in addition to the…
Inver Grove Heights, MN – 31,000mi – $2,850 Everybody should love the early 90’s ZX7 Kawasaki Ninja. These are in my opinion one of the best looking bikes from this era. Unlike its more-sought after homologated special brother, the ZX-7R, the standard ZX-7 can be more street friendly. Non existent on this bike is the…
Redmond, WA – 25,106mi – $2,500 No Reserve There is a reason that this bike is still considered one of the best handling bikes… because they are. And how does a 59hp inline-four blasting its way to 14,000rpm sound? Sounds great to me! You get all of Yamaha’s trick goodies of the day including, but…
As you can see, I’ve passed our poltically correct human resources class here at the RSBFS towers. The seller points out that this bike is great for shorter riders but I’m telling you, the 400’s are great fun for all. We’ve seen a couple of CBR400RR’s for sale in the past few months but this…
While we know we are always bordering on Bimota fatigue with RSBFS readers it looks like we haven’t had a SB8R Special posted here since 2011. This one meets all the usual Bimota requirements, including not being ridden. The odometer hasn’t clicked over 900 miles yet. 2000 Bimota SB8R Special Those with a carbon fiber…
It’s not an ultra rare CR93 and it’s not dripping with parts from one but damn it, this thing has just enough ‘cool factor’. From the sound of it, it’s not even a finished project so you can still have a little say. Honda CR93 Replica for sale on eBay A couple of years ago…
