Though the Dream was offered for a few years in Japan, Honda only exported the bike to the US in 2004. Here’s one of those few bikes that has zero miles.
$20k Resto – 1993 Suzuki GSX-R 750
In the US, 1993 was the first year of the water-cooled GSX-R 750 (though other markets got water cooling the year before). Despite that, I wouldn’t say it’s a particularly collectible year for the brand – but that didn’t stop the seller of this bike from throwing down some serious money on a restoration. Now it’s up to you to …
In Canada – 1997 Honda Dream 50
Honda has always been one of the world’s best at sub-100cc bikes, from commuter bikes for the people to full on works racers. Over the years, however, the company slowly moved towards bigger bikes in an effort to capture more of an American market that has always been obsessed with power. For a couple of years in the Japanese market …
1979 Honda CB750F Super Sport
The Honda CB750F, also known as the Super Sport, was an evolution of the storied CB750 line. It gained some 80s styling to complement the 748cc dual overhead cam engine, a unit that produced 78 horsepower. The bike was capable of hitting about 125 miles per hour, and it was very competitive in the market in terms of power and …
1991 Suzuki GSF400
Americans typically think of the Bandit as a 600 or 1,200, but Suzuki also made them in 250 and 400 variants – the latter of which was exported to the US for only a couple of years. The 400 was introduced in 1989, by ’91 it had optional variable valve timing and a “Limited” version came with different cosmetics and …
Weird Listing – Honda NR
View Post1965 Yamaha YDS3
The predecessor of the RD series, the Yamaha YDS3 was notable for many reasons. First and foremost, it was simply an excellent bike that could run rings on bikes with twice its displacement. In addition, it introduced Yamaha’s Autolube system, eliminating the need for mixing oil with gas in two-stroke bikes.
2 Honda CB95Rs
The CB95R isn’t a particularly popular bike, but this seller has two examples that have been ‘race restored’ (but not started so they’ll need fluids and tuning of the carbs) and bumped up to 155cc.
1989 Kawasaki KD80X
A rare minibike, the Kawi KD80X that is normally hard to find in good shape nowadays because most were beat up as play bikes. The seller of this example has had two bikes – one went to the Moto Armory museum, and the other can now be yours.
Baby RD – 1974 Yamaha RD60
The RD60 was a tiny two-stroker that was built just between ’73-’75. It featured more gears in the transmission than horses out of the engine (5 vs. 4). Weird fact of the day – this bike didn’t have a green neutral light indicator.
Late 80s Japanese Sportbikes
Someone’s got 4 classic Japanese sportbikes for sale, all of which were just imported from Japan. All have titles but registering them will really depend on where you live. We’ve got two Honda NSR250s (MC18), a Suzuki RGV250 (VJ21), and a Honda VFR400 (NC30).
2001 Honda Africa Twin XRV750
This weekend I got to see the North American reveal of the new Africa Twin. Honda had the good sense to have a classic RD03 for the reveal courtesy of Ujeni Motors, but here’s one of the very rare examples of the RD07 that fell in between and is available in the US.
ELR Replica – 1982 Kawasaki KZ1000
Starting with a KZ1000, a previous owner of this Kawi has turned into a clone of the ELR – Eddie Lawson Replica.
900cc Superbike Replica – 1980 Honda CB750F
I’ve never done this before, but the listing of this bike is good enough that I just want to step away and let you read the seller’s words as he/she put it.
Built by Trident – 1982 Honda CX500 Trike
Post Listing Update: This Trident was pulled off of eBay, final sale price unknown. In the 80s, a company called Trident built a few (rumors suggest 250) trikes based on Honda’s CX500. Some were built for police use, and they were geared about 10% lower than the stock 2 wheeler.
