Nice Price – 2018 Kawasaki Z900RS
Jeff Pamer: This isn’t the first Z900RS I have shared, and my feelings haven’t changed about them. I would have a hard time arguing that it’s not one of the best retro bikes on the market. This segment is getting quite crowded, and it’s getting tough to pick one out of the lot. This segment, which started as a styling …

Yetman Framed – Honda 305 Racer
David Yetman was born in 1938, and he fell in love with motorcycles as a military serviceman stationed in Japan. He specifically appreciated the “high level of performance” that Japanese manufacturers were able to extract from small bikes. Years later, he crashed his Honda CB77 and ruined the frame.

864 Miles – 2001 Kawasaki W650
Before Triumph brought the Bonneville back in the early 2000s, your best bet for a “Modern Classic” Bonnie actually came from Japan. Kawasaki’s W650 was a retro standard inspired by their W1, itself a copy of the BSA A7. The W650 was only exported to the US for two years, but during that time it was the best option for …

If 4 gears in a transmission is good, 5 must be better, right? And in that case, how would you describe 8? If you’re Husqvarna in 1970, you’d say eight was just enough, as that’s how many gears were available in the 360 Cross.

Few were sold in …
