Honda’s CR750 was an evolution of the ubiquitous CB750, sold in very limited numbers as kits to dealers to convert the stock bikes.

$3,430 Off – 2019 Husqvarna Svartpilen/Vitpilen 701
I’m a big fan of both the Vitpilen 701 and the Svartpilen 701, though an easy criticism is the $11,999 MSRP. But they sure get a lot more interesting if a dealer was knocking off $3,430 from the price…

This particular 2010 Streetfighter features a ridiculously long list of more than five-dozen up-specced aftermarket parts. Practically every piece …
