MODEL SUMMARY.

WOW ! An exceptional example of a quite majestic Kawasaki GTR 1400 A8F in Metallic Spark Black with Graphite wheels. 2007 57 Reg, the first of the 2008 A8F Model year bikes

4 owners from new with the last owner for 6 years. 33000 miles with excellent service history, and clearly very well cared for and loved, including it’s original stamped service book, service bills/invoices, previous bill of sale and old MOTs. Recent engine oil/filter and final drive oil, new front pads and discs and as new Maxxis Supermaxx STs fitted

These are truly an epic machine, and remain one of the fastest, most powerful sports tourers available. The emphasis is on ‘Touring’ but with a distinct nod to ‘Sports’ The 1352cc motor is based upon the ZZR1400 powerplant, but tuned for a lazier, (even more) torquier delivery. The modifications are quite extensive, and very importantly incorporate Variable Valve Timing. Power is quoted at 160 bhp (with Ram-Air) and 100 lb ft of torque. It all adds up to a very fast machine that is truly wonderful to ride, with handling and agility that belies their size. The powerplant is unsurpassed by any other motorcycle, totally untemperamental, with a beautiful ‘woofly’ character and massively powerful. Just an incredible machine and a huge amount of bike for the money

It’s very high standard specification includes an Electrically operated touring screen, Multifunction LCD display, Multifunction trip computer, Gear indicator, Analogue instrument faces, Radial mount calipers with radial master brake and clutch cylinders, Petal discs, Projector style headlamps with LED tail light, 12v auxiliary power socket, KI-PASS (Kawasaki Intelligent Proximity Activation Start System) with keyless ignition and Factory fitted Kawasaki engine immobiliser. The wonderful standard fitment quick release colour coded Kawasaki panniers are further enhanced in this instance by a 46 Litre Givi top box, also quick release

Nice options fitted include a Two Brothers carbon exhaust and a Power Commander lll USB. The bike has been set up and dyno tuned @ 159 rwhp and 99 rw lb ft (with print out) That’s Rear Wheel power and not crankshaft, and so this bike is producing very healthy power, according to that particular dyno. Also worth mentioning is the glorious note of the Two Brothers exhaust, which sounds utterly superb and pops on the overrun.  These bikes are very popular in the USA (marketed as ZG 1400) and these ‘pipes are the ‘pipes of choice there. Other options are a Custom two tone seat cover, Carbon fibre rear hugger, Heated grips and a Datatool S4 CAT1 alarm/immobiliser

In excellent, original condition, this bike is truly lovely, and just needs to be seen. A fine example of a brilliant motorcycle

MODEL SUMMARY.

Nice example of a Triumph Sprint RS 955i in Racing Yellow with Silver wheels and decals. 2001 Y Reg

20000 miles. Comprehensive checkover and service at 17200 miles. Recent plugs. As new matching Bridgestone BT023s. Service bills/invoices. Old MOTs. MOTd July 2021

The Sprint RS was a slightly sportier, more focussed version of the ST, and whilst predominantly a sports tourer, can be hustled along very nicely, with it’s wonderful 955 Triple motor providing decent performance and aural delights

This particular bike benefits from having a Triumph colour coded seat cowl, carbon style exhaust, NWS rear hugger, Renntec rear luggage rack, dark tinted screen, tail tidy and Progrip tank pad. Otherwise, it is essentially stock, standard and as Triumph intended

It’s in very clean and original condition, genuinely very nice. It has suffered some micro blistering to the plastic fuel tank through ethanol reaction. This doesn’t detract greatly from the overal appeal of the bike. Please see photos. A Fuel Diamond is now in place to prevent further problems

Looks fabulous in Racing Yellow. Characterful, quick and comfortable bike, that serves very well as both a fun commuter, or Sunday morning funster

COLOUR. Azur Blue with Blue seat

TRANSMISSION. 5 speed manual – Belt drive – Wet clutch

TOP SPEED. 111 mph

ACCELERATION. 0-60 mph 5 s

WEIGHT. 170 kg

MODEL SUMMARY.

Very clean and original example of a BMW F 650 CS Scarver in Azur Blue. 2002 02 Registered

These are a most unusual bike, genuinely rare to be found, and quirky in their design. They are great fun to ride, very agile, with their big single cylinder 652cc motor offering strong performance, and serve well as an individual commuter, or indeed as a weekend fun machine. BMW described them as an ‘urban assault vehicle’ with the name ‘Scarver’ derived from Street Carver

The nose and dual headlamp assembly sits high above the front mudguard, and the fuel tank is actually underneath the seat, with BMW utilising the ‘usual’ space for the fuel tank as a huge storage area, aptly named multi purpose cargo area, enabling a significant sized bag/rucksack, helmet or other, to be placed there

Very pretty die cast aluminium 3 spoke wheels feature, along with maintenance free belt drive, a lightly tinted windshield, 41mm diameter telescopic forks, 300 mm diameter front disc and floating caliper, and a steel swingarm with progressive shock linkage. The larger diameter frame tubes serve as an oil tank for the dry sump engine, and all panels are easily interchangeable to allow a colour change, or mix and match scheme if one so desires

This particular example has covered just 12800 miles and is in very clean and original condition. It has factory fitted heated grips, Heed engine bars, and a top box and rack fitted. Recent high quality Shell AX7 10w 40 semi synthetic lube service and MOTd August 2021. Original owners’ handbook and all keys present. Great bike

Genuinely really clean and quite lovely BMW R1100 RT in Dark Graphite Metallic with BMW Panniers and Top Box. 1999 T reg.

Just 4 owners from new, and 61000 miles with service history including it’s original service book displaying 24 stamps, service bills/invoices amd old MOTs. Clear HPI report. MOTd August 2021. All books/documents/keys present

This was BMW’s ‘uber’ touring bike of the day with the familiar low revving, under stressed Boxer Twin offering oodles of torque and plenty of ‘roll off’ engine braking

This particular bike is in very good order, and extremely clean. With just 4 owners from new, it is not to be confused with much lesser examples that are available. It’s really lovely, completely fit and healthy, and rides well with no issues. The ABS system and the original electric screen are still fully operational, as is everything else on the bike

With BMW luggage and a topbox, it remains a comfortable commuter, or indeed would be just the ticket for some long distance touring on a capable, characterful and classic machine

Benefits from Honda o.e factory luggage rack and colour coded topbox. Pillion seat included. Also has Pyramid rear hugger and HRC carbon style tank pad fitted

9800 miles from new with full franchised Honda dealer service history, including it’s original stamped service book, service bills/invoices and old MOTs. Original owners’ manual and all keys present. Excellent matching Dunlop Sportmax RoadSmart 2s fitted

These 2014 F-E onwards variants, are also referred to as an RC79 or a Gen 8.  Their styling closely follows that of the original 1997 VFR800 RC46 Gen 5 (previous generations were 750s) which was pronounced as the best motorcycle in the world upon it’s launch. As with all VFRs, they are a bike of supremely rounded abilities, a bike of total completeness, being fast, comfortable, a competent sports bike or tourer, with an engine of immense usability and character, and Honda’s build quality at it’s finest

The specification was greatly enhanced over earlier models, and included an LED headlamp, Traction-Control, 4 piston radial calipers, new lighter 10 spoke wheels, new forks and Pro-Arm swingarm, adjustable seat height and self cancelling indicators. Overall weight was down 10kg and the motor was revised to produce more usable low to mid range torque with a smoother VTEC transition. The wonderful, and characteristic engine note of the V4 remained, an absolute jewel of a motor with a completely unburstable feel

Honda HISS engine immobiliser. Datatagged

Just a fabulous, beautiful, traditional sports touring bike.  Very pretty in this colour combination, and needing nothing at all, it represents more than fair value for this year and mileage

9900 miles with it’s original stamped service book. Just had 15w/50 semi synthetic lube service. Previous bill of sale. Service bills/invoices. MOTd July 2021. All books/documents/keys present 

These Bullet 500 EFi models look just fantastic, and appear to have come from a different age and time, which of course is their raison d’etre. With combination kick and electric start, and fuss free modern fuel injection, it’s very much a case of being able to enjoy all the attributes of a true classic machine but with peerless reliability

The 499cc air cooled OHV single cylinder motor offers ample performance for what this bike needs to offer, and has the distinctive ‘thump’ that only a big single delivers. The gearbox is a 5 speed manual with left foot gearchange, accompanied by a 7-plate wet clutch. Telescopic front forks and gas filled rear shocks mated with a 280mm dia. disc front brake and 152mm dia. rear drum brake ensure these little bikes handle and stop more than adequately, and 18″ diameter spoked chrome rims look nothing less than ace. Combined with a traditional speedometer, sprung saddle, chrome headlamp cowl, rectangular tool boxes and full length mudguards, amongst many other styling detail touches, it all adds up to an incredibly pretty and charismatic machine, which achieves in every way exactly what it sets out to do

This bike benefits from having a full Motad sports exhaust including downpipe (original parts supplied) and Power Commander V fitted. It also has an engine protection bar and a most useful decent sized pannier / luggage rack, easily removed if required

A bike of much character, that will of course appeal to a certain type of motorcyclist and their needs. One thing is for sure, it will always turn heads, and smiles and waves are assured from onlookers. Great fun

These are an utterly glorious machine, a modern generation Ducati using their recent approach to aluminium monococque chassis design where the engine itself acts as a stressed member. Bristling with high technological electronic and mechanical componentry the specification includes ABS – Bosch 3-level Electronic Antilock Braking System, DTC – Ducati Traction Control, EBC – Engine Braking Control, DQS – Ducati Quickshifter, RbW – Ride by Wire throttle control, Switchable engine maps – Rain, Sport, Wet, Brembo Monobloc M50 radial calipers, 330mm dia. floating discs and radial master cylinder, MOTO GP derived LCD instruments and Ducati engine immobiliser

The ‘S’ model was appreciably more expensive than the base model, and in addition to the above specification offered a much more sophisticated suspension system comprising Ohlins NIX30 43mm dia. TiN coated forks with electronic compression and rebound adjustment and Ohlins TTX36 monoshock with electronic compression and rebound adjustment, and adjustable linkage, DES – Ducati Electronic Suspension control, Ohlins steering damper, Marchesini forged light alloy wheels, Full LED lighting and a Ducati Corse Carbon Fibre front hugger. All of this took the price of the base bike from £15750 to £19750 for the rather more special ‘S’ and at launch it was only surpassed by the similar specification ‘Tricolore S’ model

Beautiful bike, in excellent and original condition, sounds and looks awesome, a special machine, with monstrous performance from its 195bhp / 98 lb ft L-Twin Superquadro motor. All books/history/documents/keys present

1 owner from new, and just 8000 miles. Regularly maintained from new by RPM bikes in Northampton, with every service bill from new. Recent lube service. As new Pirelli Angel STs. All e-books/documents/keys present

These Moto Morinis are a very high quality, top notch product using their own Franco Lambertini designed Bialbero Corcacorta motor acting as stressed element first seen in the more powerful 1200 Corsaro. It’s a brilliant liquid Cooled 87 deg V-Twin of 1187cc and developing 117 bhp / 102 Nm. The rest of the mechanical specification includes components from only the finest Italian manufacturers and these bikes have a Verlicchi tubular trellis frame with aluminium swingarm, Brembo calipers, Marzochhi Magnum 50mm dia. USD forks, Paioli rear shock unit, Magneti Marelli engine electronics with 54mm throttle bodies, Traditional Excel laced aluminium alloys spoked rims in satin black and Twin double tapered exhaust pipes. A 21 litre fuel tank is most useful, and a standard fitment

This particular bike has been the pride and joy of it’s sole owner from new, whom purchased it from the UK Importers for these bikes, Amore Moto in Whitchurch, Shropshire. Additional options fitted include a Front fender extender, Heated grips, Handguards, Luggage rack with GIVI QR topbox, Radiator guard, USB charger and Puig smoked touring screen

All in all, this is an essentially perfect example of a rare, unusual and most charismatic bike, and will surely be one of the best to be found. As long term owners ourselves of a 2008 1200 Corsaro Veloce we are unashamedly great fans of these machines, and see this one as a not to be missed opportunity for someone
