1999 Kawasaki ZRX1100, $2500

Burien, WA

“This is a one owner garaged kept super clean machine. Two brothers pipe, good tires. Stock and unmolested.
No, not a squid boy crotch rocket. But a super street bike, with massive roll-on power. 20k +miles.
No trades, serious only will call before 10pm please. Gladly send larger pictures.Will not send bla bla bla over email. If it posted it is available.”

We love Zee Rexes. Why? Plenty of power, very comfortable, great retro throwback styling, very easy to live with motorcycle, and it’s very customizable. For being a one owner bike, it’s at a good offering price. I just don’t understand the owner’s refusal to send bla bla bla over email… what exactly is bla bla bla and why would he prefer to use a telephone to exchange said bla bla bla?

Anyway, if the link to this craigslist ad brings up nothing, then the bike obviously isn’t for sale any longer. 1) our economy still sucks and 2) it’s late October, there’s not as much motorcycle wheeling and dealing going on as, say, May.

If you’re pining for a newer year ZRX, more are probably available here:

Love a mid 80’s V65 Sabre. Put a windscreen on it and you have a motorcycle for the rest of your life.

**UPDATE** The auction for this lovely V65 Sabre has ended, and it fetched a damn respectable $2,600! I myself entered a few bids on it – suffice it to say, there were others willing to pay a bit more for it than I was, and I congratulate the seller and auction winner.  My loss.

Any more Honda V65 Sabres for sale anywhere else? If there are, they’re right below:

Some more Honda ST1100s may be available outside of the Seattle area here:

Lots of other updates to this bike build on a 1982 CB650 frame. Not for everyone, but there is something quite likable about it. While this particular Honda custom bobber motorcycle is no longer for sale, there are probably tons more available here.

“For sale is a 1986 Yamaha Fazer with the Genesis 700cc engine. This bike is also known as the “baby V-Max” as they look very similar. This bike is in very good to excellent condition. You will not find one in this good of shape with original, shiny paint probably anywhere in the country. It has no scratches and has not been down (to my knowledge). This is a very hard to find and collectible bike. I have added foam grips, bar end mirrors, and a windshield. Fresh oil and plugs about 400 miles ago. Tires and chain in great shape. Jump on it before it’s gone. $2300 firm.”

In the Spring of 2001 I paid $2500 for my second Yamaha Fazer, a 1986 model. It wasn’t quite as nice as this particular specimen for sale. The owner/seller doesn’t state how many miles the bike has on it, but their engines hold up quite well, so I wouldn’t worry much if it was under 40k. The mounted windscreen is a third party manufactured unit; Yamaha made a color coded quarter fairing/windscreen specifically for the Fazer and Radians in 1986 that looked a little sportier than this one. I nit pick.

Although this particular 1986 Yamaha Fazer standard motorcycle is no longer for sale, there may be more:

Other Fazers may be available for sale here.

2nd owner, 37,680 miles. Reciepts for all work done, comes with suit and gloves. $1,600 Marysville, WA.

This is the first year for the Interceptor from Honda. In 1984, Honda offered a 700cc version (called just Interceptor, the true 750cc engine Interceptor was the V45, and cost $800 more, thanks to the Reagan Administration’s Harley Davidson protective tariff). This vintage Interceptor could be a collector’s item.

If this Honda V45 Interceptor is gone, more may be available here.

While this particular BSA bobber motorcycle is no longer available, there are lots more available here.

“I have a 1982 Yamaha Vision 550 for sale or trade. Great condition, super clean bike. 23,000 miles and stills runs and looks amazing. newer battery, shaft driven, liquid cooled V-Twin 4 stroke that starts every time. carbs cleaned and jetted about a year ago. The throttle cable is a little finicky but is a really easy fix, i just don’t have the time. This bike has lots of power. Comfortable to ride and I would take it anywhere in the country. Clean Title in hand.” This Yamaha Vision has sold.
