1974 Laverda 750 SF2 Custom
The Laverda 750 SF2 was not particularly impressive on paper: just 65 horsepower out of 744cc at a time when the “Superbike” category was getting into full swing. But it’s an attractive bike – some think it’s better looking than its bigger brother triple.

Plated 50cc – 2003 Aprilia RS50
The Aprilia RS50 is pretty much as good as it gets with 50cc “supersports”. The styling has always aped the styling of its liter-bike bigger brother, but the proportions can look a bit off because of that: Still, the 49cc two-stroke engine is powerful enough to get the bike up to about 65 mph once it’s been derestricted, and today …
1958 Simson 425S/AWO Sport
A East German company known for building cars, bikes, and firearms, Simson had a tumultuous history which included being taken over by the Third Reich (Simson’s ownership was Jewish) and later on by the Russians after the second World War.
