Post-Sale Update: After 21 bids on eBay, this Moto Guzzi Sport 1100 sold for $5,899. Moto Guzzi fans are few and far between in this country, but they’re a passionate group. Big bikes with lovely, torquey V-Twin engines, Guzzi is best known for cruisers and standard bikes. But the Moto Guzzi Sport 1100 was a beautiful deviation from the norm.
56 Miles, 122 HP – 2006 Ducati PS1000LE Custom
I’ve featured a few Paul Smarts in the last few months, so I won’t bore you with the technical details again. What I will do, though, is point out the highlights of what makes this bike stand out (and why it costs so insanely much!). Not only does it have just 56 miles on on the odometer, it has an …
Reader Ride – 2007 Ducati 1098
Today we’ve got a bike for sale from reader Chuck P, who’s letting go of his cherry Ducati 1098 because he’s keeping a different bike for track duties.
2001 Ducati MH900e Evoluzione
Post-Sale Update: After 17 bids on eBay, this Ducati MH900e Evoluzione sold for $16,700. After not seeing one of these for about a year, I feel like a bunch of these Ducati MH900e Evoluziones are coming out of the woodwork. With two that have sold in the last month for at least $20,000, it looks like another seller is trying …
Former BikeEXIF Feature – 2009 Ducati SC1000s Custom
I’m out of town with limited internet, so you only get one bike today. Hopefully you think it’s a good one! The Ducati SC1000s Custom (SC stands for Sport Classic) was an instant classic from the Italian firm, thanks to the retro good looks and the joy of the air-cooled twin. Despite the cost, it was also a common starting …
Museum Quality – Bimota SB6R
The Bimota SB6R was an uprated version of the SB6, Bimota’s most popular bike – though for a niche Italian manufacturer, “popular” is a relative term (only 1,300 units were produced). The SB6R was only produced from 1997-1999, and in many eyes it’s the pinnacle of classic Bimota motorcycles – brutal power from a Japanese engine with the style and …
1986 Ducati 750 F1B
The Ducati 750 F1B was a factory racer with lights and signals for street legality. One of the last bikes from Ducati before they were sold to Cagiva, the 750 F1B (and the limited editions based on this bike) is a minimalists’ bike and one of the most sought after Ducatis in the company’s history.
Still in the Crate – 2002 Ducati MH900e Evoluzione
Post-Sales Update: After 27 bids on eBay, this Ducati MH900e Evoluzione sold for $28,600. After not seeing one of these for about a year, I featured a Ducati MH900e Evoluzione just a couple of weeks ago. Now I get to one-up myself with a MH900e that’s STILL IN THE CRATE. Note that the last featured bike sold for $20,000, and …
85 Years Young – 1939 Moto Guzzi Egretta
4-10 Update: This Guzzi is back up for sale here on eBay. When it comes to classic Guzzis, the Airone (produced for nearly two decades!) is usually the first bike that comes to mind. Airone translates to Heron, but that bike actually owes its existence the very rare Egret, the Moto Guzzi Egretta.
1974 Moto Guzzi 850T Cafe Racer
Post-Sale Update: After being relisted, this Moto Guzzi 850T Cafe Racer sold for $5,127 on eBay. The touring variant of the venerable California, the Moto Guzzi 850T was an oddball. It wasn’t as pretty as the average Italian bike, but it was much more reliable – making it a great ‘do-it-all’ bike and an interesting platform for a wide variety …
1965 Parilla Wildcat 125
5-22 Update: Factual errors corrected, see comments below. Post-Sale Update: After 14 bids on eBay, this Parilla Wildcat 125 sold for $2,150.
1966 Ducati Monza Junior 160
Post-Sale Update: This Ducati Monza Junior 160 sold for $1,800 after 34 bids on eBay. The Ducati Monza Junior was the baby of the Ducati lineup at the time, with a tiny 160cc engine that earned a reputation for durability and dependability. Today we’ve got an example for sale from loyal reader Jeff Z!
1974 Ducati 750GT
Post-Sale Update: After 21 bids on eBay, this Ducati 750GT sold for $27,200. The Ducati 750GT was the first of Ducati’s venerable V-twins, and its lovely lines set the stage for classics like the 750 Sport and 900SS.
2010 MV Agusta F4 1000R
The second mass production run of the F4, the MV Agusta F4 1000R was released in 2006 – when it set a record for fastest production 1000cc bike at the Bonneville Salt Flats at 185.882 mph. It then enjoyed a refresh for 2010.
1974 Harley-Davidson RR350
Post-Listing Update: This Harley-Davidson RR350 was pulled from eBay, final sale price unknown. Built during the days when Harley owned Aermacchi, only 26 (or 37? I couldn’t pinpoint an exact number) of the Harley-Davidson RR350s were built – who knows how many are left. Most importantly, this is the only Harley that has ever won a Grand Prix event.
