As if the final generation of Honda’s legendary 2-stroke 250cc bike wasn’t cool enough for you, here’s one that’s been wildly modified with a 300cc big bore kit, carbon fiber wheels, and full carbon fiber bodywork!
For Charity – 2025 Honda Dax 125 With 176 Miles
A few years ago I met the guys over at TFLBike at a press launch (I think it was for the Yamaha XSR900, a bike that I really enjoyed). They actually ended up buying a Honda Motocompo on the Iconic Motorbikes auction site and creating a video on it. Now we’re working with them again, this time for a charity …
1976 Suzuki GT550
While Honda and Kawasaki launched a 4-stroke revolution, Suzuki continued on with two-stroke powerplants. Still, the tides of progress demanded a replacement to the aging T500 Titan lineup so at the Tokyo Motorcycle Show in 1971, Suzuki launched the GT lineup. It started with the three-cylinder 750, affectionately known as the “Water Buffalo” due to the liquid-cooling. There were two …
Snowmobile Powered – 1990 Suzuki VX800 With 1995 Arctic Cat Thundercat 900 Engine
7/2 Update: But wait, there’s more! RoHorn has found an article about this bike on The Kneeslider and it includes a video so you can hear it running: The seller of this contraption opens up the listing with a powerful statement: “No, you have never seen anything like this!” There’s a good chance that they’re right!
Video Intermission – Iconic goes AHRMA Racing, Part 3!
The third and final part of our series is now live! My Auctions Manager at Iconic (Matt Harris) tries his hand at AHRMA racing, and it’s finally time for him to grid up against every one else…
1991 Suzuki Bandit 400
Apologies in advance for the blurry photos but this seems to be a decent example of a rare bike at what I think is a reasonable price. In the US, the Suzuki Bandit was most commonly sold in 1,200 or 600cc variants. But Suzuki also brought a 400cc model to America for a couple of years!
One Year Only – 1985 Suzuki SP600
6-23-26 Update: Six months later and this bike is now up on eBay with a ~20% discount in the asking price. Find it for $4,999 in Ventura, California here on eBay. In the mid-80s, Honda was enjoying lots of commercial success in the dual-sport world with their XL600R. The other Big 4 companies had their competitors, like Yamaha’s XT600 and …
Video Intermission – 1982 Kick Start Grand Final Trials Competition
The BBC Archive comes through with another awesome look back at some classic motorsport, this time it’s a trials competition that combines natural terrain challenges with some artificial ones like riding through a dumpster that’s partially full of water and over a couple of cars (with wet, slippery tires)…oh yeah, and you have to wheelie through the end. It’s a …
Walter Wolf Paint – 1986 Suzuki GSX-R750
Purists need not apply but this is a fun twist on a first year (in the US) GSX-R750. Apparently the second owner also had a RG500 in the Walter Wolf livery so he had this painted (on the original bodywork) to match.
Video Intermission – Iconic goes AHRMA Racing, Part 2!
For those of you that enjoyed Part1, here’s Part 2 of the saga of my Auctions Manager at Iconic trying his hand at AHRMA racing! We’ve made it to the track and now he’s got to through the school and get his race license before he’s allowed to join the festivities…
Never Ridden – 2005 KTM 250 EXC
In 2005, KTM had three different versions of two-stroke options in their EXC lineup – the 200, 250, and 300. Here’s one of the middle options (Goldilocks would be proud) that stands out because it’s never been ridden in its 2+ decades of existence!
Boat Tail With 523 Miles – 1971 Harley-Davidson FX Super Glide
Considered by some to be the first factory custom bike, the Harley-Davidson FX Super Glide was Willie G’s brainchild and an attempt to satisfy the countless H-D enthusiasts that would customize their brand new Harleys. Harley recently announced that they’re bringing back the “Super Glide” for 2026 with just 2,500 serialized examples and a White Onyx Pearl paint scheme that …
2002 Ducati 998
Over on the auction site we’ve got a very nice example of a Ducati 998 that I thought was worth sharing. It’s just had a fresh service and it has less than 4,000 miles!
Rothmans Replica – 1987 Honda VFR400R
In 1987, Honda updated the VFR400 to the NC24 generation – it was Honda’s first bike to use the Pro-Arm single-side swingarm that became a Honda staple in the 90s.
Video Intermission – Iconic goes AHRMA Racing, Part 1!
As you may know, I’ve been racing in AHRMA for the last few years and I love the experience. Unfortunately for my friends, that means I’m constantly annoying them by trying to have them join me! Over at Iconic, I was able to convince my Auctions Manager (Matt Harris) to join me for the Willow Springs round this year, and …
