Someone’s pride and joy with high-end upgrades; both cosmetics and performance.A fellow enthusiast and long-time RSBFS follower has decided it is time to trade in speed for comfort. The amount of modifications done to the bike and the fact that he has all factory OEM parts so it can be restored to factory finish, pushed…
Today’s find is an absolute gem that is overlooked and likely relatively unknown in the United States. American riders tend to dismiss smaller capacity motorcycles as starter bikes or scooters. But in many markets the quarter liter sport bike was the real competitive ground zero, and the machinery on offer was as technologically advanced as…
Scrounging around on the auction site this evening I located this pretty good looking 86′ Kawasaki GPz1000R Ninja. 1986 Kawasaki Ninja 1000R For Sale on eBay! Not too shabby eh? These were only brought stateside for 3 years and competed for the same floor space as the earth shattering GPz900 (Think Kelly McGillis). While you…

I’m sure you all must be exhausted by the never ending stream of exotic Italian confections that have assaulted your senses this week. Rich, high-calorie recipes that include a bit too much of all the things that make motorcycles great. As a palate cleanser, I’d like to offer this very clean, very handsome, very appropriately…
Today’s Kawasaki GPz900R “Ninja” is one of the most iconic Japanese sport bikes of all time: the image of Tom Cruise racing a Tomcat along a runway, with just a pair of sunglasses, a bomber jacket, and his million-dollar smile to protect him from bugs traveling at 221 feet per second was burned into the…
