No Reserve: Pair of 1985 Honda Spree Scooters
The bikes the market did not know what to do with.
Two untouched 1985 Honda Spree two-strokes with 1,700 combined miles and nearly 40 years of single-owner provenance—the kind of time-capsule pair that actually *stayed* in a garage instead of getting ratted out. If you understand that "useless" 49cc commuters are the new hot collectible for people who think vintage Japanese engineering beats everything else, no reserve means this is happening Thursday.
Weird Bikes
The Weird Lane
Two-strokes, triples, homologation leftovers, and machines with excellent bad ideas baked in. The stuff the market black flagged first and collectors rediscovered later.
No Reserve: 1969 Honda CT70 Trail
This 1969 Honda CT70 is the OG minibike that started the whole tiny-bike obsession—a fresh restoration in Candy Ruby Red with that bulletproof 72cc four-stroke that'll run forever if you just change the oil occasionally. At $3,200 no-reserve, you're getting the bike that made a generation believe small displacement could be pure fun, which is exactly what separates people who actually ride from people who just collect.
No Reserve: 2023 BMW R1250GS Adventure Trophy
A practically new 2023 R1250GS Adventure Trophy with just 5k miles hitting the auction block at $11k no-reserve is basically BMW's factory conceding the market won't bear full retail on even their trophy bike. If you've been priced out of the adventure-bike conversation, this is your shot at the real deal before some flipper figures it out.
No Reserve: 1998 BMW R1200C
BMW's cruiser experiment: the R1200C is basically what happens when Stuttgart tries to build a Harley and ends up with a 1200cc boxer engine that actually runs—3,500 miles on an Ivory beauty at $2.8k screams sleeper investment before the nostalgia tax kicks in. If you want shaft-drive reliability and German engineering masquerading as American iron, this no-reserve Thursday closer is your play.
1969 BMW R69US
This 1969 BMW R69US has barely 2,500 miles and a freshly rebuilt 594cc boxer engine—a bulletproof workhorse from the era when BMW *invented* the adventure bike formula. At nine grand with period-correct Craven luggage, you're buying a time machine that actually runs, not a museum piece collecting dust.
No Reserve: Pair of 1985 Honda Spree Scooters

1978 Honda CT90 Trail
The CT90 is the kind of machine that makes modern motorcycles seem a little overeducated. Tiny, stubborn, geared like a farm tool, and honest in a way most machines have forgotten how to be, it was built for pit lanes, fire roads, bad ideas, and long afternoons that turn into stories. For $1,700, somebody bought not just a motorcycle, but a yellow little passport to the sort of trouble that still feels pure.

EX-Bandito, 1954 Harley-Davidson 74
This ex-outlaw 1954 Harley 74" FL bobber carries actual road miles and real history—the kind of provenance that can't be faked or added in a garage. At $27.5K, you're getting genuine patina and a bike that earned its scars, not some sanitized restoration that forgot what made these things matter.
2024 Honda XR
Brand-new 2024 Honda XR150L street-legal trail bike with clear title selling for $2,200—basically a new adventure commuter that's been genuinely ridden, not garaged. Cosmetic battle scars and a cracked speedo cluster on a sub-$2.5k bike that actually runs and handles? That's the deal people who ride *actual* bikes recognize.
