Update 7.11.2018: Seller reports that this bike has sold to an RSBFS reader. Congratulations to buyer and seller! -dc Looking very much like an attempt by Honda to out-Monster Ducati, today’s Featured Listing Honda Hawk GT in fact predated the Galluzzi-designed machine by several years. The Hawk was also known as the NT650 and Bros…
It’s always fun to see older cars and bikes that were meant at the time to embody the designs of tomorrow, even if that future never actually came to pass. Somehow, even though the world this wild Gilera CX125 embodied only exists in some sort of alternate reality, at least it doesn’t rely on vaporware…
Ducati definitely had a Monster for every rider in the mid-oughties, from a 996cc water-cooled naked superbike to a M400 progressive license special. The 800 S2R had a firm hold on the middle of the road, air-cooled and torquey, sporty but more like a ragtop sports car. This example barely has break in miles and…

Update: Greg notes that this bike is sold! Congratulations to buyer and seller! -dc Like real estate, they’re just not making any more V-four 399cc sportbikes, and every one that appears has some kind of history – used or abused, neglected or cared for. This Ohio-registered NC30 looks nicely preserved and has survived 25 years…
Available for just three years here in the USA, between 1988 to 1991, the Honda Hawk GT sold pretty poorly. Introduced in an era when American buyers were snapping up fully-faired sportbikes, the Hawk was slower, more conventional-looking, and fairly expensive, so buyers here just weren’t sure what to make of it. Exactly what was…
The impossibly exotic Gilera CX125 still looks futuristic today but, while the fully-enclosed bodywork and unusual suspension appeared radical when new, the underlying mechanical bits are surprisingly pedestrian. Sure the bike handled well, but the 125cc two-stroke single powering the CX is far from the exciting, sophisticated engine you’d expect, considering the bike’s striking design.…
For Sale: 2000 MV Agusta 750 After posting a seemingly endless string of Moto Guzzis, I have decided to make my way further down the alphabet and post something different. From MG I have made it to MV – as in MV Agusta – to post this pretty 750. Pity that folks who own such…
