If you’re looking to pick up one of Tamburini’s iconic Ducati superbikes, now is the time. They appear to have hit bottom a while ago, and values are on the rise. I mean, we’ve seen 748s for as little as $3,000 so how much lower did you expect them to go before you were planning…
By every objective measure, the Suzuki TL1000R fell woefully short of its design brief over its six-year run, missing the mark as a world-dominating superbike, Yamaha R1 competitor and genre-defining street machine. Plagued by its porky waistline and relative lack of power, and dogged by horrifying tales of its disappointing rotary damper rear suspension, the…
Update: This bike has SOLD! Congratulations to buyer and seller! -dc The 1993 Ducati 900SS Superlight came rolling out of Bologna ready to rumble, with lightened frame rails, a single-seat tail section sporting a big, brash number plate and a production number just shy of 1,000, which meant only the most devoted Ducatisti got their…

Once again, it comes from our friends at Iconic Motorbikes, whose collection of killer, historic bikes is both for sale and display. At present, though, this…
Not many photos accompany today’s Ducati 916 SPS, although the few that are suggest the bike is in very good, lightly used condition. A classic homologation special, the bike was designed to move Ducati’s production racers beyond the limits of the original 916 engine. The 916 SPS was the first bike to use Ducati’s new…
Naked-sports wouldn’t want to be left out of the absurd-power sweepstakes, and MV Agusta showed how it’s done with the Brutale 1090RR.
