Post Listing Update: This MT-01 was pulled off of eBay, final sale price unknown. The original “Master of Torque”, Yamaha’s MT-01 was never officially sold in the US. But other lucky markets were able to buy it between 2005 and 2012, and it was a fascinating combination of a cruiser V-Twin motor in a large naked sportbike package.
Rare in the US – 2009 BMW K1300R
I’ve had a K1200R for a bit over six years now, and I absolutely adore it. However there are a few issues that I tried to rectify (such as the fueling and the clutch feel). I heard that the K1300R fixed most of the issues…but BMW decided that the new bike wasn’t worth selling in the US so I never …
1989 Honda VTR250 Interceptor
Post Listing Update: This VTR250 did not get any interest at the BIN of $1,550. Confusingly, the seller then decided to relist it for more money ($1,650). When that didn’t sell, he went up to $1,950. When that didn’t sell, he went up to $2,150! You can probably guess how that went. Sold in the US for three years, the …

1974 Laverda 750 SFC
Post Listing Update: This SFC did not get any interest at the BIN of $58,000. One of the most famous motorcycles to ever come out of Italy, the Laverda SFC was a half-faired beauty built for competition. SFC stood for Super Freni Competizione, or “Super Brakes Competition.” The brakes weren’t the only thing that were super – the engine got …
2014 BMW HP4
The limits of the BMW S1000RR aren’t approachable by the grand majority of motorcyclists, but that didn’t stop BMW from going even crazier with the HP4 (High Performance 4-cylinder), which was introduced in 2013.

Ending Soon – 2000 Honda XR650R Supermoto Custom
Post Sale Update: This XR sold for $8,650 on Iconic Motorbike Auctions in San Diego, California. I’m a sucker for dirtbikes that have been converted to supermotos for street usage, and this outrageous XR650R (which happens to be street-legal and plated in California) is checking off all of my boxes.
191 Miles – 1997 Ducati 916 SPS #79

1994 Yamaha FZR400RR-SP

CA Titled – 1986 Honda NS400R
Post Sale Update: This NS400R sold for the opening bid of $7,800 in Vista, California on eBay. In 1983, Freddie Spencer became the world’s youngest 500cc World Champion, and he did it on a Honda V3. Honda responded by releasing a 250cc production bike to commemorate the win, but it took them until 1985 to build something closer to the …

No Reserve – 1975 Triumph Trident T160 Project
Post Sale Update: This Trident sold for $4,427 after 34 bids on eBay. Per the seller, this numbers-matching Trident (VIN: T160DK03766) was found sitting in a private collection. It kicks over so he’s listing it as a “non-running project”, and there’s plenty of photos for you to verify the cosmetic condition with. This could be a fun and relatively quick …
