The odometer shows 9,200 miles, but you wouldn’t guess that based on the cosmetic condition of this beautiful XR1200 – one of the best bikes that Harley has made in the last 50 years.
2013 Triumph Tiger Explorer XC
Jeff Pamer: The Tiger moniker has been used by Triumph for a very long time, and its history is a bit convoluted. The vast differences in bikes that have held the Tiger name make it a hard line to follow. Not only is the current Tiger vastly different from the original bike that held the name in in 1936, the …
Video Intermission – Around the World on a Ducati 998
It’s always a good day when Petrolicious releases a motorcycle-focused video, and this one is especially interesting. They start by asking the redundant question, “Is it practical to ride an Italian sportbike from Amsterdam to Cape Town?” Meet Peter Muurman, who has covered almost 62,500 miles on his Ducati 998 in 54 different countries!
Guess That Bike Revealed – Front Fender Edition
Congratulations to Speirmoor, who was the first person to identify that this is the front fender of a Husqvarna Nuda R!
1991 Moto Guzzi 1000S
Post Listing Update: This Guzzi 1000S did not meet reserve despite 33 bids up to $12,100 in Wichita Falls, Texas. It was immediately relisted but bidding only got up to $11,300. The seller then tried one last relist at a BIN of $15,000 with no takers. In 1990, Moto Guzzi released the 1000S, styled to look like an update of …
1985 Suzuki RG400 Gamma
Post Sale Update: This RG400 Gamma sold for $7,500 after 19 bids on eBay in Raleigh, North Carolina. You know the RG500 – but did you know that Suzuki made a 400cc version for Asian markets?
Restored – 1969 Honda Mini Trail
Post Sale Update: This Mini Trail sold for $3,101 after 18 bids on eBay in Seattle, Washington. The seller of this bike is a long term Bike-urious reader, and he’s got a great story about how his connection to the Honda Mini Trail.
Guess That Bike – Front Fender Edition
Here’s one of the most distinctive front fenders in modern motorcycling…and it’s from a bike that was never officially sold in the US. Can you tell me what it’s from?
1971 Bridgestone Mountaineer 90
Post Listing Update: This Mountaineer did not get any interest at the BIN of $2,999. In 1964, Bridgestone introduced a series of 90cc motorcycles – there were 9 different models based around 4 primary designs. One of the designs was the Mountaineer, and you can probably guess by the name that this was built to go off-road.
2019 CAKE Kalk Limited Edition
Post Sale Update: This CAKE sold for the BIN of $10,990 in Birmingham, Alabama. When I was at a recent Alpinestars track day, someone from Cake had brought their electric off-roader for people to play around with. It’s an e-bike that comes with a 2.6-kWh battery, Ohlins suspension, and a $13,000 price tag – this is one of the 50 …
1966 Gilera B300
Post Listing Update: This B300 did not meet reserve despite 21 bids up to $3,750 in Wainscott, New York. Produced between 1954 and 1970, the Gilera B300 (B for Bicilindrico or two cylinders) is a rare find in the US. It was built to be a reliable commuter rather than a performance mount.
1984 Ducati Pantah 650SL
Post Listing Update: This Pantah 650SL did not meet reserve despite 28 bids up to $8,601.01 in Wainscott, New York. Another day, another Italian beauty out of Stuart Parr’s collection. Yesterday’s Gilera Saturno was my favorite of the current offerings, but even that stunner isn’t as visually striking as this Pantah 650SL, one of just 288 ever built.
Video Intermission – A Moto Stunt in the New Bond Movie
The trailer for the newest Bond movie was released yesterday, and there’s a Triumph Scrambler 1200 in a supporting role. Near the end of the trailer, there’s a motorcycle jump that’s worth a closer look – and thankfully someone on YouTube has provided just that.
