For less than $2,500, here’s a DR650 that’s got an impressive set of modifications for the money.
Bold Claim – 1974 Honda CL450
The seller of this Honda 450 Scrambler claims it’s the nicest all original example in the USA. I can’t imagine that’s true, but I also can’t doubt that it looks to be in excellent shape.
2006 BMW HP2 Enduro
The slimmer brother of the R1200GS, the BMW HP2 Enduro kept the GS engine and CANBUS electronics but instead utilized a trellis frame and normal forks to save a whopping 53 pounds – this was BMW’s true large displacement enduro.
“Rally Replica” – 1989 BMW R100GS
View Post622 Miles – 1999 Suzuki DR350
Introduced in 1990, the DR350 was a basic dual-sport (kick start only for the first four years) that served recreational trail duties well. It wasn’t a game changer (though Moto-USA called it a Memorable Motorcycle) and it’s normally not a feature-worthy bike on this site…but this example has just 622 miles.
1965 Ducati Mountaineer 100
In the mid 60s, Ducati offered a pair of singles called the Cadet and the Mountaineer that were both powered by a 97.6cc engine. The Cadet was a road bike and the Mountaineer (as you can guess from the name) was more of a dual-sport before the term existed.
Pick One – Well Prepped Mid Size Dual Sports
I love when people go a little crazy with their dual sport builds. Here’s a BMW F650GS Dakar and a Kawasaki KLR650 that have both been well-prepped for about the same money – which would you pick?
In Holland – 1993 Yamaha XT600 Custom
View PostIn England – A True Naked 2001 Suzuki DRZ400
Ever wondered what a dual-sport would look like if you stripped of all the plastics? Wonder no more. This Suzuki DRZ has had ‘all unnecessary plastic removed and replaced with alloy where needed’. I can’t decide if I like it or not – what about you?
Ending Soon – 1969 Norton Ranger P11A
One of the lesser-known models in the Norton line-up was the P11/Ranger. It all started by California distributor Bob Blair, who put an Atlas 750cc engine in a Matchless G85CS frame because desert racing was all the rage in the Southwest US. That evolved into the “Project 11”, which became the P11 when officially released by Norton in 1967. A …
M1030B1 – 1999 Kawasaki KLR650
Post Listing Update: This KLR did not meet reserve despite 34 bids up to $5,122. The KLR650 is known the world over as a basic and durable dual-sport with a wide following and lots of aftermarket support, thanks to the fact that it basically went unchanged from 1987 to 2007. So, when the US Marine Corps was looking for a …
Possible Steal – 1985 Moto Morini Camel
This 501 Camel is being offered by the seller for a BIN of $1,500 in Los Angeles. What’s the catch? Well, there’s two: 1. The VIN on the title does not match this bike (I realize that in some states, that’s a deal breaker). 2. The right exhaust, which comes off the front cylinder of the v-twin engine, is throwing …
John Deere Themed – 2001 Buell M2 Cyclone
Well, here’s something you won’t see every day – a John Deere themed motorcycle.
1971 Triumph Blazer T25SS
At first glance, I thought this bike was restored. Turns out it’s just in “exceptional” original condition – though the current seller did have it gone through mechanically. It’s in impressive shape, but is it worth over 6 grand?
Restored – 1969 Sachs K-125GS Boondocker
Introduced in 1968, the Sachs K-125GS (also known as the Boondocker) was designed to be a competitive turn key entrant for privateer off-road racers. Here’s an example that’s been restored and is nearly perfect – though the opening bid is over 6x the original MSRP of $600.
