Affectionately known as the Widowmaker, the Kawasaki H2 750 might be the best-known motorcycle ever built by Kawi. In fact, the company is bringing the name back the upcoming Ninja H2 superbike. Here’s a beautiful original example (VIN: H2F-25970) with the right amount of wear. This bike has 5,700 miles and is being offered by the 2nd owner- the 1st …

Euro Livery – 2003 Honda RC51 SP2
The RC51 is such an incredible bike – it combines Honda reliability with the joy of a V-Twin engine (my personal favorite) and it beat Ducati at its own game with multiple World Superbike Championships and a AMA Championship.
AHRMA Racer – 1979 Yamaha YZ400
Here’s a cheap Yamaha YZ400 that the seller acquired earlier this year and then built up into a racebike that placed 2nd at this year’s Barber Vintage Festival. It’s got DID rims, Acerbis hand guards, DG pipe with FMF turbincore exhaust and more – the only problem seems to be sticker wear from the seller’s knee braces. Here’s your chance …
1968 Yamaha DT-1 250
The Yamaha DT-1 250 was an absolute game changer when it was released, as it essentially created and dominated the market in the US. In fact, some argue it’s the most significant motorcycle in Yamaha’s history – the initial production run of 12,000 was instantly scooped up, and competitors immediately rushed out their takes on the cheap, reliable dual-sport.
Snakebit – 1968 Suzuki Cobra
Otherwise known as the T500, the Suzuki Cobra was very short-lived. Sort of. After just one year, Ford told Suzuki that the Cobra name was already accounted for, and that they should figure out another model name for their 500cc two-stroker.

1994 Honda CB1000
Post-Sale Update: After 28 bids on eBay, this Honda CB1000 sold for just $2,449. Now that’s a steal. Affectionately known as the Big One, the Honda CB1000 was produced for just two years as a bike that stood out in a world of superbike replicas with acres of plastic bodywork. The slightly detuned engine didn’t help sales, and Americans weren’t …
1969 Honda S90
You all know I love the S90 – see the Bike-urious logo if you had any doubt. Recently, the only nice ones I’ve seen have been expensive restored examples. Here’s an impressively clean original model in red, one of the harder to find colors. It looks to have 3,500 miles, and even the fork gaiters and chrome look to be …
1990 Honda GB500 Tourist Trophy
Post-Sale Update: After 27 bids on eBay, this GB500 sold for $5,997.

1983 Honda CX650 Turbo
Post-Listing Update: This CX650T did not meet reserve with bidding up to $10,300. In 1982, Honda introduced its first production turbocharged motorcycle, the CX500T.
