The best way to think about the Suzuki B-King is to consider it a naked version of the famous Hayabusa. Sold only for one year in the US, it features the 2nd generation, 1340cc Hayabusa engine that was retuned for more mid-range torque. When it was unveiled to the world as a prototype, this bike featured a 240 section rear …
Black and Tan – 1978 Honda CB750K
I’ve featured a few MOTO PGH builds in the last few months – my impression is that they build rideable mild customs with a heavy cafe racer influence. This Honda based build is called the Black and Tan – what do you think?
Panhead Cop – 1960 Harley-Davidson Police

In Spain – 2001 Ducati 750SS Scrambler Custom
Nowadays, “Ducati Scrambler” has a specific connotation, but this is something different. Every time I look at it I’m split between thinking it’s cool or stupid – what do you say?
Championship Winner – 1974 Carabela Marquesa 100
Post-Listing Update: This Marquesa did not get any action at the opening bid of $2,950. The Marquesa was Carabela’s successor to the Caliente, Mexico’s first MX bike.

Military Trike – 1960 Fabrique Nationale AS 24
We go from not featuring a FN in a few months to having two within a few days. Somehow, this AS 24 is even cooler than the vintage FN single featured earlier this week, thanks ot the interesting design and the military functionality.
2013 EBR 1190RS Carbon Edition
In 2011, Erik and his company, Erik Buell Racing (EBR), decided to get back in the sportbike game with a bang – the EBR 1190RS. The RS featured a powerplant that produced 175 horsepower just shy of 10,000 rpm, and it weighed less than 400 pounds wet. This is one of the extra rare Carbon Edition models.
In Canada – 2011 Confederate P120 Fighter
It’s a love-it-or-hate-it kind of motorcycle (I love it, at least the looks), but you can’t deny that the Confederate Fighter is distinctive. This example is slicker than your average as the seller has put a lot of thought and money into handling some of the more ‘boring’ aspects like the cooling and electrical systems.
1939 Harley-Davidson Big Twin Sidecar
The seller calls this a U/ULH because the motor is from a U but it has ULH barrels that were bored .20 over. Either way, he’s had the three wheeled rig since 1969 and it’s claimed to run and handle perfectly after a ‘complete refurbishment’ 5 years ago. Hope you like red!

Gun enthusiasts will recognize FN as a Belgian manufacturer of a wide variety of guns – my favorite of which is probably the F2000 bullpup assault rifle. But between 1901 and 1967, they also made some motorcycles, including the world’s first four-cylinder bike, and the single you see here in front of you.
