Pick a decade – we’ve got a bike from the 80s, 90s, and 00s. Two Bimotas and one Laverda are up for grabs from a seller in Central California. Which one would you take home?

View PostCentennial Edition – 2002 Triumph Daytona 955i
Post Sale Update: This Centennial Edition Triumph sold for $2,700 after 8 bids on eBay. Triumph goofed up when they introduced their take on the sports literbike market in 1997. As their new triple was dubbed the “T5” and the motor displaced 955cc, the British manufacturer decided to blend the two names to come up with a model name of …

Guess That Bike – Frame Edition
Here’s a frame. What bike does it belong to?
Hector Barbera’s Ride – Avintia GP14 2014 Kawasaki MotoGP Bike
MotoGP bikes are the pinnacle of cutting edge motorcycles. These are literally the best and most advanced two-wheelers on earth. Every component of these bikes are state-of-the-art, the absolute best of the best, period. Even a gearbox on many of these machines can cost upwards of $100k. These are the best motorcycles money can buy and millions are often spent …
1986 Honda NS400R
In 1983, Freddie Spencer became the world’s youngest 500cc World Champion, and he did it on a Honda V3. Honda responded by releasing a 250cc production bike to commemorate the win, but it took them until 1985 to build something closer to the actual size of Freddie’s champion. That was the NS400R, and even though it gave up 100cc and …
No Reserve – 1992 Suzuki RGV250
Post Sale Update: This RGV250 sold for $9,019 after 42 bids on eBay. When Suzuki introduced the RGV250, it was a revelation. MCN put it thusly: “back in the day 250cc race replicas were the sharpest handling, most frenzied, maddest things you could buy on two wheels. Nowadays the RGV250 is a modern classic and is probably a bit slower …

Period Hot Rod – 1969 Norton Commando 750 S
View Post1975 British Piper Kawasaki Endurance Racer
There’s something really special about 1970’s Kawasaki race machines. They possessed a unique style and flare that gave their bikes a unmistakable look and identity. The folks at Kawa weren’t afraid of wrapping their bikes in some pretty funky and interesting bodywork that was unmistakably theirs. This Kawasaki Endurance Racer is a prime example of this and on top of …
Ending Soon – Honda NSR50 or NSR80
That’s right, “or.” This seller is offering you the choice between a NSR80 or a NSR50 Mick Doohan Repsol Commemorative edition. Which one would you pick? I’m sticking with Mick.
Set Up For Street – 1969 Rickman Metisse MkIV
Post Sale Update: This streetable Metisee sold for $5,200 after 27 bids on eBay. The seller has had this bike since 1985 – he bought it because he needed “a fast, nimble ride to navigate the congested Silicon Valley traffic” he dealt with on his commute. He rebuilt it upon acquisition and rode it just about daily for four years, …
2005 Ducati 749R
Post Listing Update: This 749R did not meet reserve despite 28 bids up to $10,100. The styling of Ducati’s 749R was polarizing: it seems like for every person that liked the way it looked, you could find four people who didn’t. But thanks to a slipper clutch, Ohlins suspension, and lower weight (despite a larger fuel tank) than the 749, …
The Gulf Classic – 2006 Ducati Monster 1000S
While it may be listed as a 2006 “Built Monster 1000s”, I’m calling this build “the Gulf Classic” for what should be obvious reasons.
