Offered by one of the owners of The Classic Bike Experience in Essex, Vermont, this Triumph TR6SC is one of just 346 sold in 1965 (and just 656 produced in total). Consider it a follow-up to yesterday’s TR6SR.
Custom Paint – 2006 BMW HP2 Enduro
View Post1966 Triumph TR6SR
In ’66, Triumph was making several versions of the TR6 Trophy – this was the SR, considered to be a ‘high-performance roadster’. What did that mean? This bike got raised handlebars and a smaller fuel tank.
Ducati Powered – 1974 Condor A350
Post Sale Update: This Condor sold for $4,250 after 24 bids on eBay. A bike built for the Swiss Army, the Condor A350 was produced between ’73 and ’79. 3,000 were produced, and the military only started releasing them to the public about 15 years ago.
1984 BMW R80GS
Post-Listing Update: The seller removed this bike from eBay. The poor photos of this listing were not enough to overshadow my love of the start of the BMW GS line (and my appreciation for no reserve auctions).
Fly and Ride – 2014 KTM 1190R
I don’t make it a point to feature modern mass production bikes, but… 1. the 1190R is absurd. 2. this provides an amazing opportunity for a fly and ride for those of you that want to ride up to the top of Alaska.
1990 Honda XL600V Transalp
Though these are common in other countries, the Honda Transalp is a rare bike in the US – it was only sold here between ’89 and ’91. Out of the three color schemes, Fighting Red was the rarest.
1989 BMW R100GS
Alright, you guys are eating up the classic GSes so I’m going to keep hitting you with them.
KLR Cousin – 1990 Kawasaki Tengai
This Kawasaki Tengai was created as a sister bike to the venerable KLR 650. Magazine tests of the time cited the Tengai as a bit better off-road, and most thought it was better looking due to the extra plastic.
Full Resto – 1972 Suzuki TS400
Post Sale Update: After 16 bids on eBay, this TS400 sold for $5,000. For those of you that grew up on a TS400, here’s a hit of nostalgia that might make you want to open your wallet. Restored by Suzuki guru Jeff Weier, this bike is claimed to be better than new.
Ending Soon – 1988 BMW R100GS
Post-Sale Update: This GS sold for just $6,900. I’ve been featuring a few of these in the last few days, but I’m assuming you won’t mind after seeing how nice this 8,400 miles example is. But hurry, the auction ends soon!
New In Crate (in Germany) – 1986 Yamaha XT500

Here’s a bumblebee GS that was ‘taken apart and refreshed’ 2 years ago.
1983 BMW R80GS
Post-Sale Update: This R80GS sold for $5,700 after just the opening bid. Arguably the motorcycle that created the ‘adventure bike’ segment, the R80GS (and successors) has been invaluable to BMW. It’s also becoming harder and harder to find a good example.
2003 MZ Baghira
MZ decided to expand their product line with the introduction of the Baghira, a dual sport with excellent components – bodywork from Acerbis, motor from Yamaha, and suspension from WP. It all combined to make a rare and very satisfying dual purpose motorcycle.
