Here’s JR’s first post – and it comes with bonus information on cigars!
1 of 250 – 2015 MV Agusta F4 RC
View PostTurbocharged Speed – 1982 Honda CX500T
In 1982 I thought Honda had just tried to upsell the market some cheap horsepower by putting a turbo on the CX500. Upon further review there is more to the story.
2014 Ducati 1199 Panigale Superleggera
Every so often a motorcycle comes along that is just too beautiful. On the Superleggera beauty is way more than skin deep.
Clean Commando – 1974 Norton Commando 850
Thanks to a recent repaint, this 850 Commando looks beautiful, and it’s claimed to run like new. Here’s your chance to re-enact that Peter Egan article from a couple of weeks ago…
441cc Single – 1968 BSA Shooting Star
In 1964 and ‘65 Jeff Smith rode a BSA Victor Scrambler to the 500cc Motocross World Championship. To capitalize on that success BSA launched 2 models for 1966 based on the bike – the Victor Grand Prix and the Victor Enduro. They followed in 1967 with a road model based on the bike called the Victor Roadster. By 1968 when …
One Year Only – 1968 Honda CB450 K1
The K1 CB450 was a one year only bike, and it was the last Honda to rock chrome panels on the gas tank.
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.
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.
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.
1977 Kawasaki KH400
By 1977, all that was left of Kawasaki’s legendary line of triples were the KH250 and the KH400, the latter an evolution of the S3 Mach 2 – Kawi wanted to keep the names consistent with the KZ line. Unfortunately, the evolution was due to tightening emissions requirements, so the newer bike had less power – a disappointing end to …
36 Miles – 2009 MV Agusta F4 RR 312 1078
View PostOriginal Owner – 2008 KTM RC8 1190
12-28 Update: Almost 2 years later, this bike is back up for sale. It looks to be in similar shape, although mileage is now up to 9,950 (this may be a typo by the seller as it’s the same as the asking price) and the same asking price as before, of $9,950. Find it for sale in Central New Jersey …
1963 Scott Flying Squirrel
12-27 Update: I don’t know how this bike is still for sale, but reader David N. spotted it with more details and more photos for the same $15,000 asking price here on ADVRider (registration required). Released in 1926, the Scott Flying Squirrel was an interesting motorcycle that placed third in the ’29 Isle of Man TT. A water-cooled 598cc twin, …
