I don’t make it a point to feature modern mass production bikes, but… 1. the 1190R is absurd. 2. this provides an amazing opportunity for a fly and ride for those of you that want to ride up to the top of Alaska.
1 of 133 – 1997.5 KTM 200LE Jackpiner
You’re either going to look at this bike and drool, or wonder what the big deal is. If you fall in the latter camp, here’s a refresher of how KTM came to be in the US, thanks in no small part to John Penton. If you’re in the former camp, just scroll down to the for sale listing and snap …
Ex-Factory Racer – 2004 KTM 450 SMS
The KTM 450 SMS was already a rare bike, but this example is 1 of the 4 bikes KTM used in a championship-winning AMA Supermoto Unlimited factory effort.

The Penton Six Day was a very important motorcycle – it was the start of the commercial relationship between John Penton and KTM.
1 of 25 – 2010 KTM RC8R Red Bull Edition
In 2010, KTM started importing the RC8R to the US. To celebrate, they released two limited edition models, both of which had just 25 examples produced. One was the Akrapovic Edition (reader Zack B. actually found one for sale just 3 days ago), the other is this post’s subject – the KTM RC8R Red Bull Edition.
680 Miles – 2002 KTM 640 LC4 Adventure
Oh all the 650-ish cc dual sports out there, KTM’s take was by far the best in the dirt. Here’s an example (VIN: Vbkgsl4032m747266) with just 680 miles that’s going to find a new owner – because it’s up for bidding with no reserve. It’s being offered by the second owner who is including a brand new battery in the …
In Spain – 1974 Puch Magnum X
A 50cc dirtbike, the Puch Magnum X was produced between ’74 and ’79. Rated at a whopping 3.5 horsepower, it was the most powerful 50cc automatic engine Puch ever made. This example is claimed to be in spectacular condition with 200 miles (and a sweet bicycle horn). Find this Puch Magnum X for sale in Barrio de la Estacion, Spain, …
Restomodded – 1991 KTM 300/380 EXC
It performs like a new bike but looks like an almost-classic. This 1991 KTM 300EXC has been given the engine, brakes, and suspension from a 2001 KTM 380EXC, creating an interesting package. As part of the mechanical changes, this bike also got NOS plastics, graphics, seat cover, and more. Unfortunately, the front light and fender are not the original KTM …
1968 Puch 250 SGS
Imported to the US by Sears under the Allstate brand, the SGS was Puch’s big bike of the day. It featured a distinctive split single engine – two pistons that shared the same combustion chamber. Because of this, it was also known as the Twingle.
78 Miles – 1996 KTM 620 RXC
Post Sale Update: This RXC sold for $3,383.33 after 44 bids on eBay. Gotta love those 90s plastics. Here’s an beautiful example of a large KTM thumper. It has just 78 miles and is being offered with no reserve so it’s going to have a new owner. Note that the front brakes will “need to be serviced”, but this has …
Ending Soon – 1986 KTM 80MX
Post-Listing Update: This KTM got no interest at the opening bid of $1,500. A rare bird in the US, the KTM 80MX was KTM’s first foray into 80cc youth bikes and they’re quite the collector’s item now. What blows my mind is how much power this tiny bike was capable of putting down – check out this vintage ‘ad’ for …
818 Miles – 1996 KTM Duke 620e
Considered by many to be the birth of the supermoto, the KTM Duke 620 was a revelation when it was introduced as a concept. Riders loved it enough that KTM eased into limited production. These bikes are a silly amount of fun, but I’m going to defer to Cycle World’s review of the bike in 1995 to give you an …
1979 Puch Magnum MKII Moped
Moped Army considers the Puch Magnum to be one of the most sought-after mopeds of all time. Here’s your chance to snap up a near-mint condition example.
2011 KTM SMR 990

1966 Allstate 250 Twingle
Post Sale Update: This Twingle sold for the opening bid of $1,800! Also known as the Puch 250 SGS, this bike was imported into the US through Sears as the Allstate. It’s also known as the Twingle as it featured an interesting engine design where two pistons shared one combustion chamber.
