Here’s a fun little video about why the 90s were better when it came to MX bikes. Let Red Bull transport you back in time to when kidney belts, helmet fins, and two-stroke exhausts were all the rage.
2013 Ducati 1199R
If you’re a fan of racing, Ducati’s ‘R’ models hold a special place in your heart. Often designated for superbike homologation builds, ‘R’ models raise the bar for what is possible on the street. Ducati has had several R models to satisfy WSBK regulations over the years, each one more savage than the last. The 1199R offers titanium engine internals …
Naked Panigale V4 Custom – Officine GP Design’s “Penta V4”
When Ducati first unveiled the Panigale, many thought it wouldn’t be long before the Bologna-based brand pulls the cover off a naked version of the full-faired flagship L-Twin. To the dismay of many a Ducatista, the Italian marque never opted to release a production Panigale Streetfighter…though rumors have been swirling that we may be treated to a naked version of …
1983 Yamaha Midnight Virago 920
In 1983, Yamaha offered a “Midnight Virago” that featured a black paint scheme with gold accents. They also offered a rare color-matched factory touring package with a fairing, saddlebags, and trunk for even more Midnight goodness – though this example seems to only have the fairing as well as a giant aftermarket backrest for the passenger.
1986 Honda XL250R
Post Listing Update: This XL250R did not get any interest at the opening ask of $3,500. I’ve said it before – dual sports are one of life’s great simple joys. Two knobby tires strapped to a 250cc single cylinder is all the machine you need to conquer the world. I’m sure some of our readers have experienced the motorcycle manifestation …
Who’s Going to Vegas This Weekend?
Two of the world’s largest motorcycle auctions are kicking off this week in Las Vegas – are you going to be there?
Upgraded – BMW HP2 Enduro
Towards the start of the 1980s, BMW tasked a small group of designers and engineers to deliver what eventually became the R80G/S — a model that came to define a genre and lead to some of the best-selling models from the Bavarian brand. A quarter-century-later BMW Motorrad greenlit yet another skunkworks project, this time focused on creating the ultimate big-bore …
1995 Suzuki GSX-R750
Post Listing Update: This Gixxer did not get any interest at the BIN of $3,900. The Suzuki GSX-R750 was recently added to the list of models going the way of the dinosaurs. 24 years ago, the 1995 model was going through a similar fate. Once, the GSX-R750 was King of the Superbikes. 1995 wasn’t that time, despite a recent update …
First Ride – 2019 Yamaha YZF-R3
View Post2014 EBR 1190RX
Post Listing Update: This EBR did not get any interest at the opening bid of $7,100. I’m a fan of Erik Buell – the man refused to let his dreams die, and while his business may have failed, there are a few EBR 1190RX models left for us to remember his genius by. 185hp comes from an 1190cc v-twin and …
Street-Legal Two-Stroker – Honda NSR50
Despite only being officially sold in the US in 2004, Honda’s NSR50 rapidly amassed quite the cult following. Big Red’s little 50 was an incredibly popular choice with young riders looking to get into the sport, though the baby NSR definitely has some adult fans too.
2019 Harley-Davidson Street Glide Special vs 2019 Indian Chieftain Dark Horse
View Post1990 Honda GB500 Tourist Trophy
Post Sale Update: This GB500 sold for $5,558 after 23 bids on eBay. Honda’s GB500 was an homage to classic British singles but there was a twist – it was reliable! The average American rider shopping for a Japanese bike at the time was more interested in the bigger supersport replicas, but the Tourist Trophy has become a cult classic.
Monoshocked Mini Motocrosser – 1974 DG Framed Honda XR75
First introduced in ‘73, Honda’s XR75 was a pint-sized version of its then all-new off-roader lineup. Despite being sized for youngsters, the XR was a venerable beast of a machine. Even though its stock form was nothing to scoff at, the aftermarket sector quickly stepped in to offer an increasingly vast array of upgraded bits for the little 75.
