Replacing the WR, the Harley-Davidson KR was the American firm’s last flathead. It was a successful racer for nearly two decades, though less than 500 were built over 15 years.

View PostStreet or Race? Pick a Matchless G80
Here are two nifty examples of the Matchless G80 – one’s a street bike that may have been owned by Bud Ekins, the other has been converted into an AHRMA dirt tracker that spent some time racing and was then displayed at the National Motorcycle Museum. Pick your poison.

After Honda’s victory at the 1970 Daytona 200, they sold 200 race kits that would turn a CB750 into a CR750 racer. Those kits cost $10,000 back in the day, which would roughly equate to $61,000 now.
