Who Wants Dirt? 2004 Yamaha YZ450F Road Racer

Di Blasi Express Folding Scooter
I’m featuring this scoot for two reasons. First, it’s hard not to appreciate the engineering required to build a vehicle that folds up into a bag. Second, the delightfully 90s website is worth checking out.
Needs a Little Work – 1966 Matchless G15 MKII
Post Sale Update: After 4 bids on eBay, this Matchless sold for $4,050. Marketed as a bike with “slingshot acceleration”, the Matchless G15 MKII evolved from the poor effort that was the original G15. This bike featured a Norton Atlas engine and was arguably best when it was paired with a sidecar.

Though it stands in the shadow of the SPS variant, the Ducati 888 SP4 is one of the rarest Ducatis ever in the US.
1987 Suzuki GSX-R 1100
Featuring 137 horsepower and weighing just 434 pounds, the 1100 GSX-R was the fastest bike on the block at the time. Introduced right after the United States lowered the import tax on bikes above 700ccs to 24.4 percent (from over 39 percent), the bike even seemed like a relative bargain.
1964 Honda Dream 305

Moto Guzzi learned from their mistake of putting a 16″ front wheel on the Mk V Le Mans, so the Mk5 went back to the usual 18 incher. Many other small but helpful improvements came together to form the last generation of Le Mans’, in a wall of red.
$4,000 – 2.5 Suzuki GT750s

Considered by some to be a baby RC30, the Honda NC30 (also known as the VFR400R) has become a cult classic in Japan – it was never officially imported to the US. Turn it into a fantastic trackday weapon or enjoy it on the street…it’s already been plated in Louisiana.
