In 1988 Davide Tardozzi almost won the first World SuperBike title on his Yamaha powered Bimota YB4. The result at the end of the year was something of rip off.

This RZ500 is located in Florida, and is obviously somebody’s pride and joy. This is the kind of bike and seller that we love to see on RSBFS – the detail is good and the pictures are fantastic. The RZ500 needs no introduction on these pages. Never officially imported into the United States, the big…
Located in Tennessee is this RZ350 survivor in bumble bee livery. Sporting 9,100 miles and some aftermarket pipes (SPEC II perhaps?), this would make for a rockin’ ride for the New Year.

Ah, Christmas is in the air. Two stroke smoke is everywhere, and rare motorcycles abound. I love this time of year – possibly because the RSBFS corporate offices are located where we can ride year ’round – but also because of the great bikes that seem to bubble up to the surface late in the…
