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 …
The Ducati “Desmoto” by Futuri Motion Tech
Futuri Motion Tech is a one man shop run by Mark van Veggel in the Netherlands, and he recently made waves with his radical transformation of a 2008 Ducati Multistrada 1100DS into the lightweight supermoto in front of you that he calls the “Desmoto.”
1 of 50 – CMC Evel Knievel Signature Series
7/16/26 Update: A whopping 11 years later and this bike is back up (or still up?) for sale, though the asking price has come down quite a bit from $50k when I first shared this with you guys in February 2015. Doesn’t seem like anything has changed since the last listing besides the price, so you can now find this …
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.
1999 Cagiva Mito Evo 2
Ever wanted the looks of Ducati’s beautiful 916 but with a much, much tinier engine? Here’s your chance, thanks to the rare-in-the-US Cagiva Mito 125.
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.
2020 Royal Enfield Interceptor 650
By all accounts, the new Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 twin is a fine offering for the impressively low price of $5,799 (+$200 for multi-colors or +$700 for a chrome tank). Here’s one that’s barely been used (5k miles) at half the price…
1994 Honda NSR250 SE Custom
As if the final generation of Honda’s legendary 2-stroke 250cc bike wasn’t cool enough for you, here’s one that’s been wildly modified with a 300cc big bore kit, carbon fiber wheels, and full carbon fiber bodywork!
For Charity – 2025 Honda Dax 125 With 176 Miles
A few years ago I met the guys over at TFLBike at a press launch (I think it was for the Yamaha XSR900, a bike that I really enjoyed). They actually ended up buying a Honda Motocompo on the Iconic Motorbikes auction site and creating a video on it. Now we’re working with them again, this time for a charity …
1976 Suzuki GT550
While Honda and Kawasaki launched a 4-stroke revolution, Suzuki continued on with two-stroke powerplants. Still, the tides of progress demanded a replacement to the aging T500 Titan lineup so at the Tokyo Motorcycle Show in 1971, Suzuki launched the GT lineup. It started with the three-cylinder 750, affectionately known as the “Water Buffalo” due to the liquid-cooling. There were two …
Snowmobile Powered – 1990 Suzuki VX800 With 1995 Arctic Cat Thundercat 900 Engine
7/2 Update: But wait, there’s more! RoHorn has found an article about this bike on The Kneeslider and it includes a video so you can hear it running: The seller of this contraption opens up the listing with a powerful statement: “No, you have never seen anything like this!” There’s a good chance that they’re right!
1991 Suzuki Bandit 400
Apologies in advance for the blurry photos but this seems to be a decent example of a rare bike at what I think is a reasonable price. In the US, the Suzuki Bandit was most commonly sold in 1,200 or 600cc variants. But Suzuki also brought a 400cc model to America for a couple of years!
