While we all love to drool over (and collect) some of the most iconic motorcycles in history, the truth is that many of our beloved dream bikes are simply not suitable to ride every day. Some of the more lust-worthy models are simply too rare to ride regularly without access to spares. Some are far…
Update 5.10.2019: SOLD IN 4 DAYS! Congratulations to buyer and seller! -dc In the heady days of the late-1990s, people were buying sportbikes left, right and center and roadracing was so popular that there were two all-in series in the U.S. alone. If you couldn’t get a superbike ride in AMA, you could turn your…
Almost never without a 250cc two-stroke, Honda kept updates coming at a good pace. The MC18 was the 1988 revision ( after just one year of the MC16 ) and followed GP developments.

RSBFS regular Seattle Used Bikes has a barely broken-in customer bike available. The RC8R is built around KTM-developed Rotax 75-degree Vee, with 175hp derived from four valve per cylinder, two…
Update 4.27.2019: Sold in just two days to an RSBFS reader. Congratulations to buyer and seller! -dc The Ducati 851 is the father of modern Ducatis, from the world-changing 916 to the astonishing Panigale V4R.
