As the story progressed, it made sense to me to have one place you could refer to:
1979 Moto Guzzi 1000SP
Post Listing Update: This SP was relisted several times but never met reserve – the last listing got up to $2,750 on eBay. When Moto Guzzi released the SP Spada, they debuted it with a fairing designed in their wind tunnel. I find it to be a bit goofy looking, but it results in excellent weather and wind protection. So …
Ending Soon – The Last Indian 1953 Chief
By 1953 Indian had expired. All that was left was to put out the last Chief and close the doors. The Chief was introduced in 1922 and was the staple of the Indian line until the very end. There can be little doubt that the 1953 Chief was the finest motorcycle that Indian built, but it wasn’t enough to save …
Exquisite Trike – 1898 De Dion Bouton 1 3/4hp Tricycle
Post Listing Update: 74 bids got the action up to $38,233 but that wasn’t enough to meet reserve. It was later relisted with an opening bid of $52,000 and that got no interest. This is the oldest vehicle I’ve ever had the pleasure of sharing on this site, and it’s an absolute beauty.
Restored Cheetah – 1961 Puch DS60

Pre ’65 models featured a twistgrip shift, later bikes went to a foot shifter. These aren’t too hard to find (I’ll share three with you in this post), but it’s rare to see a …
1971 BSA Lightning Cafe
Built by Danny Thompson of Triumphs on Broadway (website is incomplete), this Lightning has been turned into a cafe racer with a heavy candy flake paint job.
Rare Custom – 1983 Amazonas
View PostEnding Soon – 1964 Harley-Davidson FLH
Classic and simple, this numbers matching Panhead is said to be entirely stock except for a repaint several years ago. With a full set of bags and a batwing fairing, it’s ready for you to tour in style.

View PostVideo Intermission – Freeride MX in Death Valley
Tom Parsons gets crazy in the Dumont Dunes of Death Valley in this beautifully shot video. The video starts with a history lesson on the dunes, and then goes into lovely footage of Tom launching himself all over the place. Sit back and enjoy!
Military Police – 1972 BMW R50/5
Classic BMW /5? Good. Military Police variant of a /5? Very, very good. A strong running international example of a Military Police variant of a /5 with free shipping to the US? Now we’re talking.
Interview – Monty Myrtle
Editor’s Note: A few weeks ago, you were introduced to Monty Myrtle when he featured an interesting Russian hack for sale.
