According to the seller, this is the bike that Doug Henry campaigned in the AMA Supermoto Championship seasons of 2005 and 2006 (he placed 2nd in 2006). I’d want to see some proof of that, but the photos show a serious level of kit.
Nice Price – 1975 Norton Commando 850 MkIII
It has not been started since 1990 and the seller says it needs some work, but I’m not sure you can go wrong for $3,000 or best offer for this Norton…
1986 Honda Helix Custom
A cheap Honda with custom seats and a body kit? It’s the Fast and Furious of scooters!
Uber Rare Project – 1965 Hummel 155
Hummel is a division of DKW, the well known German motorcycle works. DKW had begun producing motorized cycles in 1919 and in 1932 became a partner in Auto Union. The introduction of the Hummel 155 in 1965 caused a considerable stir in the European motorcycle press. The Hummel was never exported to the US.
1991 Aprilia Climber 280
A cost efficient way to get into trials riding (or a really great way to have slow speed fun off-road), this Aprilia Climber features a 276cc Rotax engine.
Extra Special – 1968 BSA Victor Special Custom
In keeping with the recent trend in customized BSAs, here is another very “Special” BSA Victor Special. Your opinion may vary…
Unexpected Chopper – 1973 Honda CB350F
This is a little weird, but I appreciate that it’s a period chopper – according to the seller, this ’73 CB was converted into a chopper in 1974. The seller acquired it from the first owner and he’s got the original fork tubes if you want to bring it back to stock (but if you want a stock example, just …
Rare Trike Project – Testi Bagaglino
An Italian manufacturer that you probably have never heard of before, Testi was founded in Bologna in 1951. They built some interesting vehicles using engines from Sachs, DEMM, and FB Minarelli – usually 49cc two-stroke powerplants. As a quick example of their quirkiness, on one of their 50cc trail bikes they built in thermometers into the rear view mirrors! One …
2001 Honda XR650R Supermoto
The seller of this bike has a little trouble taking good photos, but that shouldn’t stop you from taking a closer look at what will be a hell of a fun bike.
2013 Cleveland CycleWerks Ace
There are two quotes that I always remember when I see small displacement, lightweight bikes. 1. “Simplify, then add lightness” – Colin Chapman 2. “It’s more fun to drive a slow car fast than drive a fast car slow” – Abner Perney These quotes were directed by car people at car people but in reality, apply just as perfectly to …
1975 Honda CB200T
Introduced in 1973, the CB200T was fairly popular as a cheap runabout. This restored example looks great – and with an asking price of $1,600, it can still play the role of cheap transportation in your daily commute.
$1,495 – 1980 Honda CB400T Hawk
Why would I write up a very ordinary UJM? This is a site dedicated to Exotics, right? The Honda CB400T was as plain as could be. Because that’s what we rode. I don’t know about anybody else, but I rode a Hawk. I lusted for a CBX and would take every opportunity to head to the local dealer and dream …
1992 Yamaha TDM850
The TDM850 was a bit of an oddball that was about 15 years ahead of its time. A pavement-focused dual sport like the Multistrada or the S1000XR, the TDM gave riders the ability to explore any paved road in comfort with the option to explore fire roads to their heart’s content. Unfortunately, not many riders in the US back in …
Rare Enduro – 1988 Suzuki DR750
The DR750 was also known as the DR BIG, meaning it’s got one of the best model names in motorcycling history. It also had the world’s largest single cylinder engine used in a production bike – at least until Suzuki bumped up displacement to 800cc! They were never officially sold in the US, making this Illinois-based example a rare find …
Twinstar – 1981 Honda CM200
Based on the CD 200, the CM200T (also known as the Twinstar) is a perfect first bike, and as a ’81 model this should have a 12V electrical system.
