Here’s an odd listing – a motorcycle collector has THREE Honda Ascots still sitting in the boxes they were imported with. Because of that, you’ll have your choice of Monza Red or Black, the two colors Honda offered for the FT500 when it was first introduced in 1982. Buying a brand new 33 year old bike is one thing, but …
1989 Honda NX250
The middle weight of the Honda NX line-up (which also included a 125 and a 650), the NX250 was available for just two years. This example is in incredible condition thanks one caring owner who put just 2,405 miles on it.

Museum Restoration – 1976 Yamaha YZ125
Introduced in 1974, the YZ125 is still in production (and has won 5 AMA National MX championships over the years). In the first year of production, the bike had dual shocks, but Yamaha quickly switched to a monoshock design. Here’s one of the early models that was given a full restoration and has not been ridden since.
Custom Dommie – Andrew Greenland Honda NX650
I have a huge soft spot for the Honda Dominator (known as the NX650 in the US), as it was the bike I used to learn how to ride in the dirt, and it was the first bike I actually sold through this site. In the last couple of years, the Dommie has become a popular platform for customization, and …
Brand New – 1989 Honda TRX250R
I haven’t featured a quad in about two years, but here’s something you won’t see every day – a 26 year old Honda that’s been started once.
Silver Wing – 1983 Honda GL650 Interstate
When it was first released, the Honda GL500 basically sat in a class by itself – a full dress, middleweight tourer. Hell, I can’t think of something similar that’s available now – can you? In general, press and riders liked the bike but thought it was underpowered. So Honda responded by throwing in the engine from the CX650, making the …
Bumblebee – 1983 Honda Nighthawk 550
Alright, this is a bit of a joke post, but I figured you had to see this custom bike that was inspired by Bumblebee from he Transformers movie. That’s all I can really say about it.
1987 Honda Hurricane 1000
The Honda Hurricane, besides having one of the greatest names in motorcycling history, was an excellent sport-tourer that introduced some crucial technology into the Honda lineup. It eventually evolved into the well-known Blackbird.
Beezasaki – 1969 Kawasaki W2 Commander
The bigger brother of the W1 (a name which Kawasaki would eventually bring back), the Kawasaki W2 650SS was also known as the Commander. Just 639 were sold, and this one has been turned into a cafe racer that the seller calls a Beezasaki (presumably due to the BSA gas tank).
Tiny Racer – 1969 Suzuki Stinger
View Post1975 Kawasaki Z1
Before Honda released the instant classic CB750, Kawasaki was also working on a a four-cylinder, 750cc sportbike – except Kawi thought it was going to be first to market. They were thus shocked when Honda released the CB750, forcing them to go back to the drawing board until they could bump up displacement to 903cc. When Kawi was developing the …
1994 Honda RVF750 RC45
Post Listing Update: After 24 bids on eBay, bidding did not meet reserve at $21,500. After having ‘tested the market’, the seller then relisted the bike several times with an asking price of $22,500 and got no interest. The last relisting was another auction that got up to $18,277 before the listing was ended because ‘the bike is no longer …
Cheapest I’ve Seen – 1982 Yamaha Seca 650 Turbo
There isn’t much information on this specific bike, but it’s by far the cheapest Seca Turbo I’ve seen for sale.
