If you like Excelsior-Henderson but you don’t have the coin to buy the entire brand, maybe I can interest you in this early production example of the Super X, an attempt to bring the company back in the late 90s.
1992 Bimota YB8
Post Listing Update: This YB8 was pulled off of eBay, final sale price unknown. YB8 = the 8th Bimota with a Yamaha engine, in this case a 1000cc EXUP, 20-valve engine which yielded 149 horsepower. I find it very weird to see the “EXUP” logo on an Italian bike, but there is something to be said for Japanese reliability with …
In Italy – 1954 Norvin
10-16-17 Update: A month later, this Norvin is back up for sale.

931 Miles – 1983 BMW R80ST

Decades later, the ST is a cult classic and many owners think it’s actually the best handling motorcycle BMW had made up to that point. This is one of …

1981 Vespa P200E with Globe Sidecar
The most popular of the classic Vespas in the US, the “P-series” debuted in 1977 with 125, 150, and 200cc variants. The frames were the same – all that different was the motor and the model name. For the American market, Vespa equipped all of the options (turn signals, 12V electrics, auto oil injection). In the early 80s, Vespa introduced …

“Skyway” – 1979 BMW R80 Custom by Hutchbilt
I’ll start off by saying that the aesthetic of this build doesn’t work for me, but styling is subjective and I do like things that are different. This is definitely different, and it’s the work of Jeremy Hutch of Hutchbilt. What do you think?

2006 Ducati 999R Xerox
Built between 2003-2006, the Ducati 999 (and the regular 999 it was based on) was initially met with mixed reviews with regards to the styling. But no one can deny the success that Ducati had in WSBK and AMA racing with the top-of-the-line 999R. To comply with AMA homologation rules, the States got 300 examples of the most powerful production …
