Over on Iconic we’ve got a rare find in the United States – the SP variant of the Ducati 748. A year after the based 748 was introduced, Ducati created the SP for homologation purposes in 600 Supersport. It was never officially sold in America.
Harley/Aermacchi Sprint Land Speed Racer
Per the seller, this “is the current record holder at El Mirage” though I’m unable to determine exactly which class he’s referring to.
1968 Benelli Mojave Scrambler 260
Back in the 60s, you did not necessarily have to go to a motorcycle dealership to acquire a bike. Indeed, superstores like Sears or Montgomery Ward imported and sold motorcycles themselves. While Sears notably imported Vespas, Montgomery sold Lambrettas and Benellis, including the Mojave 360…and the rarer 260 variant (offered in Tourer and Scrambler options).
First Ride Review – 2024 Moto Guzzi Stelvio
Last week I was in Spain to test the new Moto Guzzi Stelvio for RevZilla – the story went live today!
Pierobon Super Twin (Ducati 1100) Racebike
Thanks to a Pierobon 1098 WSBK frame, Hypermotard 1100 engine, and top notch components, this is one of the most incredible twin-cylinder race bikes I’ve seen in a long time – with a $35,000 price tag to match!
Still New – 2006 Bimota SB8K Santamonica
I think you all know by now that I’m a huge Bimota fan (at least in terms of what the company was before they got bought by Kawasaki). My personal Tesi 3D is one of my favorites from their portfolio, as is the SB8K Santamonica – which is probably the ultimate form of a Suzuki TL1000R. Here’s an example that’s …
2000 Ducati 748R
In 2000, Ducati updated the 748 lineup to offer three variants – the base model, the S, and the R. The R was produced for WSS homologation purposes (750cc V-Twins competed against 600cc inline-4s). Only 2,610 R models were built, 185 of which came to the US.
1983 Benelli 900 Sei
When the Sei was introduced (as a 750), it was the first production motorcycle featuring a six cylinder engine. By ’78, the Sei got a bump up to 900 and a redesign that included many parts from Moto Guzzi (De Tomaso owned both companies at the time). You had to pay to play – MSRP was $5,406 in ’83 – …
2000 Bimota 500 V-Due
1-14-24 Update: Three years later, this V-Due is up for sale on a different platform and with a cheaper price. Find it in Spreckles, California for $40,000 here on Craigslist. Post Listing Update: This V-Due did not get any action at the BIN of $45,000 on eBay. The V-Due is one of the most interesting things that ever came out …
1993 Ducati 900 Superlight #948
In 1992, Ducati took their 900 Supersport and added several choice extras to create a limited edition called the Ducati Superlight. The following year they backtracked a bit and removed several of the goodies, leaving just the solo seat, composite Marvic wheels, and fully floating rear brake to differentiate the limited edition from its less exclusive brother. Still, it’s an …
Full Kit – 2003 Aprilia Tuono Racing
The modern Aprilia Tuono is a perennial shootout winner, but one of my favorites of the model goes back to the beginning – the limited production Tuono Racing.
#132 of 300 – 2015 MV Agusta F3 800 Ago
New for 2014, the F3 800 was more than just an evolution of the F3 675 – Cycle World said, “the 800 simply feels like a completely different animal.” Some of this was due to refinements to the engine management software, but the bigger motor was less peaky and made more power (148 hp at the crank compared to 126).
2002 Ghezzi-Brian Furia
Today’s become an unofficial “Guzzi Day” on Bike-urious, though this one did not come directly from Mandello del Lario. Ghezzi-Brian is an interesting shop that produces Guzzi-powered specials. Their debut model was the SuperTwin, a production version of the racer they won the 1996 Italian SuperTwin championship with. Their second model was what you see in front of you, a …
2004 Moto Guzzi V11 Coppa Italia
One of the rarest versions of the V11, the Coppa Italia was built to commemorate Guzzi’s challenge for the National Naked Bike Championship of the Roadster Cup in their home country of Italy in 2003. To properly pay tribute to a racer, this Coppa Italia was adorned with top of the line components like Brembo Gold Line brakes, Ohlins forks, …
1991 Moto Guzzi 1000S
Post Listing Update: This 1000S did not meet reserve with 65 bids up to $25,400 on eBay. In 1990, Moto Guzzi released the 1000S, styled to look like an update of the ’75 750 S3. It sold poorly but the classic styling has held up over the years and unlike the average Guzzi, the resale values for this model are …
