That rc30 looks in amazing shape. My current bikes are an nc35/rvf400 and a 999r. Whoever said you can get some great ducs cheap is right. The used market is full of amazing machines going unridden.

My Stinkwheel, getting ready to restore a '73 Yamaha RD350. The little Suzi is just slow...

Love it! That RC30 is a collectors item for sure, congrats!!!

I remember those RD350, had one in school.

Here's my stable, I roadrace on the Daytona 675, and do enduros on the KTM XC200. The superduke needs to go, I thought it would be fun to get back on the street, realized I'm past that stage.


I'm looking for a 70's Moto Guzzi Eldorado or Ambassador to restore. Just like the 993's, those machines have soul. PM me if ya have one for sale.

Keep the rubber side down!

Big MotoGuzzi fan here, owned several. If I were getting back into bikes I would want a 70's ambassador or eldorado as well. I think about it every time I watch the Clint Eastwood movie "Magnum Force".

I had these 3 when I lived in Germany -- love those autobahns.

The BMW 1000RS was a Last Edition - yeah, right.

The NS400R was quite a bike....................

I use them to get to where the good riding is. Roads that are narrow, twisty and above all, not flat.
