After Suzuki introduced the RG Gamma series in 1983, the line grew to span displacements ranging from 250-500cc. Of particular note was the RG400 Gamma Walter Wolf, as it was a two year only model that was exclusively sold in Japan.
Deus Ex Machina “The Mono” – 1978 Yamaha SR500 Custom
9-12-26 Update: When I originally featured this back eight months ago, the common feedback was a high asking price at $28k. Well, now it’s done to $12k – do you think that’s reasonable now or still too high? Either way, you can find it with the new ask in Manhattan Beach, California here on Craigslist. Original Post: January 14th, 2026 …
Original Owner – 1984 Honda VF700F Interceptor
Honda’s excellent VF750 Interceptor was scaled down to 700cc in 1984 to get around the newly implemented import tariffs on large cc bikes in the United States. Honda achieved this with a shorter stroke on the crank, leaving the rest of the bike mostly untouched.
1964 Honda CB77 Superhawk
The Honda CB77, also known as the the Super Hawk, has the glorious distinction of being Honda’s first sportbike. In certain ways, it set the template for the next 20 years of motorcycles thanks to a lovely pairing of speed and reliability. It would also lead to several future classic Hondas like the Black Bomber (CB450) and the ubiquitous CB750.
Scooby Doo In Scotland – 1978 Honda GL1000 With Gemini Sidecar
Ruh-roh! Someone in Scotland is clearly a big Scooby Doo fan and they’ve shown it with a custom-painted sidecar for their dog attached to a Gold Wing that was imported from the US.
Rare Project – 1958 Rikuo RT2
I generally try to avoid sharing projects that are this rough but Rikuos are too cool and too rare for me to ignore. During the Great Depression, Harley-Davidson was on the verge of bankruptcy – partially due to the 1921 Safeguarding of Industries act which imposed a 33.3% tariff on American products like Harleys that were threatening UK manufacturers. Because …
Rare Import – 1985 Suzuki RM500F
1985 was the final year of the Suzuki RM500, and Suzuki decided not to export it to the US for that year.
3,125 Miles – 2005 Honda CBR600F4i
I wouldn’t say I have a particular soft spot for the F4i, but it’s been a long time since I’ve seen one this cosmetically clean so if you’re looking for one (maybe to capture some nostalgia), this might be worth purusing…
Swiss Headlight – 1988 Bimota YB6
This bike is in Poland so I don’t think any Bike-urious reader will be rushing out to buy it any time soon but I always get caught off guard when I see a bike that’s been modified for the Swiss market. Why? Because lots of beautiful motorcycles with dual round headlights had to be converted to have a single square …
1977 Honda MT125R With Zero Miles
Over on the auction site we got a never-ridden example of a bike that started many a race career!
2015 Honda Grom with CR”325″ Engine
A stock 2015 Honda Grom is good for about 9 horsepower. Over the years we’ve seen several people stuff 4-stroke CB300 motors (~30 horsepower) but this is new to me – someone’s taken a 2-stroke CR250R motor, bored it out to 325cc, and shoved it into a Grom. He claims an output of…60 horsepower.
1987 Kawasaki KLR650 with 1990 Honda CBR1000 Engine
There’s plenty of people out there that would love to see more power out of their KLRs…but this is an unexpected way to do it. This Frankenbike combines a KLR with a Honda CBR1000 for something that will definitely get attention.
64K Miles – 1993 Honda CBR600F2
The successor of the Hurricane, the CBR600F2 was considered to be quite innovative when released in 1991. This example stands out as its been ridden a healthy 64,000-plus miles! The 599cc motor in the F2 produced 84.5 horsepower at the rear wheel through a 6-speed transmission and wet weight was 470 pounds. This bike absolutely dominated the AMA under Miggy …
569 Miles – 2006 Honda CBR1000RR
In 2004, Honda updated their legendary CBR-RR range with the 1000, an all-new model featuring an aluminum twin-spar frame, hybrid aluminum swingarm, and an Electronic Steering Damper. There were some interesting liveries over the years (like the Repsol Edition that was introduced in 2005), and in 2006 they offered a blue/yellow livery that was only offered that one year.
1989 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-7
Over at Iconic Motorbikes, I frequently get approached by people who are looking to feel like a kid again and source a first generation (1989/1990) Kawasaki Ninja ZX-7, but it’s rare when I see a nice one come up for sale. That changes this week, thanks to this lovely example in Northern California.
