With a custom paint job and lots of modifications (such as a 555cc big-bore kit), this Gamma isn’t for purists. But it was built by Rick Lance and should make for a very fun rider!
1994 Bimota DB2
One of the few 100% Italian Bimotas of the 90s, the DB2 featured a 900cc 2 valve Ducati engine (best known for its usage in the 900SS).
5-Cylinder Custom – 1978 Kawasaki “666”
I’ve had the pleasure of sharing a few of Allen Millyard’s fun builds over the years, but this is the first time I get to share one that’s for sale.
2007 Benelli TnT 1130 Sport
One of the most unique-styled motorcycles in recent memory, the Benelli TnT 1130 was a factory supernaked dominated by a torquey triple that produced 130 hp and 86 lb-ft.
CA Plated – 1992 Yamaha TZR250 RS
The Yamaha TZR250 was manufactured and sold from 1986 until 1995 in three main iterations exclusively for the Japanese market, never being officially imported to the United States. Born out of the RD250, the model evolved from the more modest parallel twin 250 two stroke of the 2MA and 3MA variants to the 90-degree v-twin 3XV. This 3XV that stands …
First Ride Review – 2022 Yamaha MT-10 SP
View Post218 Miles – 1978 Bultaco Streaker
The Bultaco Streaker is a little jewel of a cafe racer that’s hard to find in the US as (rumors suggest) just 28 of them were imported before the EPA changed emissions regulations in ’79.
No Reserve – 2000 Ducati 996 SPS #1496
Designed to be the ultimate 996 at the time, the SPS (Sport Production Special) combined performance and beauty. The limited edition SPS was an uprated version that featured a modified engine and chassis. Nearly all the specifications were improved, such as the lighter Marchesini 5-spoke wheels and Ohlins rear shock. In 2000, Ducati upgraded the Showa forks to Ohlins units, …
1983 Triumph TSX
A last ditch effort from Triumph to boost sales of the Bonneville, the TSX was basically a T140 that had been restyled by Triumph’s American division. Just 371 were built, 200 of which were exported to the United States. About 1/3 of the production run was in Midnight Black, the rest were like this example – Gypsy Red.
290 Miles – 1974 MZ TS250
Here’s a rare MZ in the US that’s barely been ridden – will you change that?
1986 Kawasaki Ninja 1000R
An evolution of their popular Ninja 900, the Ninja 1000R was the fastest production motorcycle that Cycle World had ever tested at the time. From their January 1986 review: “One hundred fifty-nine miles an hour! We’re talking fast, here, as in the fastest production streetbike ever. Tucked-in and wrist locked, a Ninja 1000 rider with little regard for his driver’s …
2006 Ducati Paul Smart 1000
We get our fair share of Ducati Paul Smarts over at Iconic Motorbikes, but this one stands out due to the history and the modifications – plus it’s already met the reserve so it will sell.
Ridden by KRJR – 1996 Yamaha YZR500 OWJ1
We’ve had the pleasure of selling some incredible motorcycles at Iconic Motorbikes – but this one’s right up there with the best of them. This Yamaha YZR500 OWJ1 was ridden by Kenny Roberts, Jr. for Team Marlboro Yamaha (which was managed by his father, Kenny Roberts, Sr.) during the 1996 World Championship. The OWJ1 was the final factory Yamaha that …
1995 MZ Skorpion Replica
The MZ Skorpion was the result of an international partnership between a British design firm, an East German manufacturer (MZ), and Yamaha. Weighing just 380 pounds and packing 48 horsepower, this is a rare sportbike that has become quite the cult classic.
CA Title – 2000 Honda Africa Twin RD07
Nowadays it’s easy to spot an Africa Twin on the roads, but back in the early 2000s your only hope to see one was if someone had imported an example through the gray market. Here’s a RD07-generation AT that stands out slightly as it has a California title.
