This gorgeous motorcycle is a game changer. Bultaco came into being in the late 1950s with high quality racing motorcycles. They were involved in all forms of racing, but when they introduced their Sherpa T (trials) model they started to dominate the dirt.
One Year Only – 1968 Honda CB450 K1

View PostAdvanced in France – 1931 Peugeot P108
The 1931 Peugeot P108 is not only a beautiful piece, it boasted several innovative features. Prime among them is no separate primary drive and gearbox, but everything tucked into one neat case. The lines and look are very elegant. The P108 is driven by an air cooled 249 cc single side valve motor. Considered a lightweight, the 108 had full …

Ready to go around the world? Here’s a bike that’s waiting for you.
Dos Hombres – 1959 Harley-Davidson Flathead Custom
Post-Listing Update: This bike was pulled off of eBay, final sale price unknown. This pretty Harley was just featured in the December issue of Easyriders Magazine (NSFW!) I’m digging the shade of blue used on the bodywork, as well as the “4D5” on the tank, referring to the 45 cubic inch flathead engine. What do you think?
2001 Ducati MH900E
I’ve featured plenty of the MH900e’s before, but it’s been a while since the last one, plus this has all of the factory goodies.
1967 Honda CL77 305 Scrambler
If you came of age in the late 1960s you were divided into two categories. Those that owned a 305 Scrambler or those that wanted one. Ah, sure, the CB77 Superhawk had it’s followers, but everybody wanted a Scrambler.
English Beauty – 1966 Norton Atlas
Every rider of a certain age remembers the noise from the Norton single. That was a distinctive wail that you never, ever forget. The king of the road for Norton in 1966 was the Atlas. A 750 (745cc) parallel twin this bike was a very large specimen from an English manufacturer in ‘66. Good suspension and an extraordinary frame made …
Nice Price – 1985 Yamaha RZ350
The last two-stroke officially imported into the US, the Yamaha RZ350 Kenny Roberts is very much a sought-after collectors bike in the US. Only sold in the states from 84-85, these were the first bikes in the US to come equipped with catalytic converters.
Stryker Green – 1983 Yamaha Virago XV750
Post-Sale Update: After 63 bids on eBay, this Virago sold for $5,100. Painted in a ‘striking’ shade of Dodge Stryker Green, this Virago has been cleaned up nicely, in my estimation. What say you?
Sport Touring On The Cheap – 1995 Kawasaki Concours
If any mile-eater ever deserved the title of “Everyman’s GT,” it’s the first-generation Concours. This was Japan’s first viable volley into the sport-touring wars and the impact was felt as far as BMW corporate. Lacking the budget of the largest motorcycle manufacturers, Kawasaki based their bread and butter models on relatively simple but effective designs and stuck with them, spreading …
1949 Fabrique Nationale de Herstal M13
FN is certainly well known for it’s guns and ammunition manufacturing, but it also made high quality motorcycles from 1901 to 1967. FN didn’t just make motorcycles, they raced them right from the start with notable success at Isle of Mann and European Motocross championships.
A Couple of Ducati 750 Sports
Here we’ve got two pretty examples of Ducati’s 750 Sport – one of the few bikes that I think looks good in yellow. (I look forward to you showing me why I’m wrong). Both have been restored and are waiting for new riders, though they’re on opposite sides of the country.
1930 Harley-Davidson Model C
The big news for 2014 from Harley Davidson was the addition of a 500cc and 750cc ‘lighter version’ to the HD lineup. It presents a low entry level price point for the HD experience. But the 2014 500cc Harley Davidson wasn’t anywhere near the first. In 1929 Harley introduced the Model C, a 500cc (30.5 cid) flathead single. The model …
