1988 Honda NC30

In Japan, Sport by AbhiLeave a Comment

Considered by some to be a baby RC30, the Honda NC30 (also known as the VFR400R) has become a cult classic in Japan – it was never officially imported to the US. Turn it into a fantastic trackday weapon or enjoy it on the street…it’s already been plated in Louisiana.

Great Price – 1982 Honda CX500 Turbo

In Japan, Sport by AbhiLeave a Comment

You guys seemed to be pleased with the last CX500 Turbo I featured, which was being offered at around $4,500. This one doesn’t look as nice (the original paint has faded a bit), but the asking price is less than half…better hurry! The seller says this bike is all original and that he’s had it since 2006. He doesn’t actually …

27 Miles – 1974 Suzuki GT250

In Japan, Standard by Abhi2 Comments

An evolution of the T250, the Suzuki GT250 got fake air scoops in the sidecovers and a “Ram Air” cylinder head that was supposed to force cold air to the back of the cylinder. Some people felt both features were equally effective, though others though the Ram Air provided actual benefits.

1981 Kawasaki AR80

In Japan, Small Displacement by Abhi1 Comment

Post Sale Update: This AR80 sold for $2,040 after 22 bids on eBay. Adorned in a repainted designed to emulate the original Firecracker Red, this little Kawi AR80 is a little two-stroker with style. Maybe not good style, but it’s got something. The 78cc engine produced about 10 horsepower, though this example ‘may’ have a big bore kit. This bike …

In Japan, Standard by Abhi1 Comment

Post Listing Update: This bike was pulled off of eBay because there was an “error in the listing.” One of the all time greats in classic Japanese motorcycle history, the Suzuki T500 showed the world that a big displacement 2-stroker didn’t have to overheat.

5,941 Miles – 1979 Honda CBX

In Japan, Sport by AbhiLeave a Comment

Here’s a beautiful, low-mileage example of Honda’s first 6-cylinder production bike, this CBX looks basically new in Candy Glory Red.

The only flaw seems to be slight chrome pitting/a small ding on the left muffler and a touched-up scratch on the front fender.
