Post Listing Update: This RF LE did not get any interest at the BIN of $23,880. Last year, Aprilia released 125 examples of a limited edition RSV4 RF, all of which were exclusively for North America. The US got 100 units, while the remaining 25 went to Canada. The big difference is the MotoGP-inspired winglets, though there’s also a numbered …
In Sweden – 1983 Suzuki XN85 Turbo
Post Sale Update: This XN85 sold for $7,600 after 3 bids on eBay. In 1995, Sport Rider said “If you see one for sale, buy it. Now go try to find one, but I betcha can’t.” Despite only 1,153 total units produced, I have found one just for you all.

1964 Fuji Go-Devil
Post Sale Update: This Go-Devil sold for $1,600 after 22 bids on eBay. Built between 1964-1967, the Go-Devil was one of the nicest minibikes available at the time thanks to a 50cc 2-stroke Fuji motor, swing-arm suspension, front forks with 30 degrees of rake, and good build quality. It also folded up into a storage bag. One of my biggest …
2016 Victory Empulse TT
Post Sale Update: This Empulse sold for the BIN of $7,999 on eBay. Before Victory failed in their quest to compete with Harley-Davidson, they had the goal of beating HD to market with an electric motorcycle.

1 of 58 – Ducati Thailand Scrambler Hailwood Edition
Post Listing Update: This custom Ducati did not get any interest at the asking opening ask of $22,500. Back in mid-2011, Ducati announced it would be opening a “final assembly” plant in Thailand. Fast forward to 2014 and the Italian brand revealed the new South East Asian facility would be piecing together the company’s (then) newly unveiled Scrambler range for …
1990 Honda VTR250 Interceptor
Sold in the US for three years, the Honda VTR250 has become a cult classic for riders that love small bikes. The liquid cooled 250cc engine was paired with a six-speed transmission, and interestingly, an inboard front disc – though by 1990 the front brake would change to the industry standard.
1,000 KM in Costa Rica With Elephant Moto – Day 1
View PostGraves Superstock Racer – 2016 Yamaha R6
The Yamaha R6 is a staple at bike meets and trackdays across the world. Its blend of price, power, and handling currently can’t be matched by the other 600s – not to mention a history of steady Supersport and Superstock championships in case a dyno sheet and a magazine article aren’t enough proof of its abilities. I myself dream of …
Ending Soon – “GARMR .003” 2009 Harley-Davidson Reverse-Leaning Trike Custom
Post Listing Update: This Harley did not get any interest at the opening ask of $25,000. I’ve never been a big fan of custom trikes, but this one-off Harley isn’t your average three-wheeler. Built by Barghest Motive, this tricked out trike is built around an unspecified 1,200cc V-Twin from a 2009 Harley-Davidson. Dubbed the “GARMR .003”, the trike reportedly gets …
Rare in the US – Honda Monkey Baja
Post Sale Update: This Monkey Baja sold for the BIN of $5,000 on eBay. In 1991, Honda released a new variant of the Monkey/Z50R. Called the Baja, it featured rally-style dual headlights in addition to the taillight, turn signals, and the classic Honda red tail bag. They were not officially sold in the US, but this modified example is already …

2009 Triumph Daytona 675
Post Listing Update: This Daytona did not get any action at the BIN of $5,300. In 2006, Triumph graced us with the Daytona 675 and the world has been a better place ever since. A 675cc triple gave the supersport world some middle ground between Italy’s V-twins and Japan’s four cylinders. 2009 brought a host of updates to improve the …
1982 Kawasaki GPz750
Post Listing Update: This GPz was pulled off of eBay, final sale price unknown. In 1982, Kawasaki introduced a middleweight to the GPz family between the 550 and the 1100 (a couple of years later, the 900 would also be released). The styling was right in line with the rest of the GPz series, though after one year Kawasaki increased …
1974 Kawasaki MT-1B
Post Sale Update: This MT-1B sold for $2,381 after 65 bids on eBay. If you want a tiny off-road playbike but you want something less common than the Honda Monkey/Mini Trail, then meet the Kawasaki MT-1. Introduced in 1971, it stayed in production until 1974 and was then renamed the KV75 in 1975. Unlike the Honda, the Kawasaki features a …
