RELISTING DUE TO NON PAYING BIDDER. DON'T BID IF YOU WON'T BUY
Stunning bike with all the best features of a traditional cafe racer

This is a beautiful RD 250 cafe racer. The rebuild has just been finished. Nice pearlescent red paint. New shocks. New exhaust system. New headlight. Custom gauges.  New seat. Fender eliminator with LED rear light.Custom cafe bars and grips.  Runs with premix since the Autolube was not reliable. Has original 1974 engine with all that entails (the carbs have been rebuilt though). It starts, runs, and shifts (and burbles like a 2 stroke!). Starts in 2-3 kicks. I am not mechanically inclined but I will do my best to answer any questions you have.  Clear Wisconsin title in my name. Bike is sold AS IS and WHERE IS. If you wish the bike shipped, I would suggest uShip and I will do my best to accommodate (but I cannot help load). 
I have done my best to take photos from all angles but if you would like specifics please let me know. I have a video of the bike running I will try and post. 
If you use the Buy It Now, I will pay the shipping anywhere in the lower 48 states.

$500 deposit must be paid immediately and is non refundable.

I reserve the right to cancel the auction if the bike sells locally.

Anti clockwise Knockhill and riding in the North East with GP winners.

Wed, 06 Jun 2012

I was both nervous and excited for my first ever reverse direction track day last week at Knockhill. From rushing downhill into the left hand off camber hairpin to sweeping up onto the start/finish, nothing bears any resemblance to riding round clockwise. I actually raced my 350LC in the opposite direction in 1982 but it still took a few laps to get my head round what essentially is a brand new track for Scotland.

Motorcycle.com Adds a New Editor

Mon, 05 Nov 2012

While some moto publications are cutting back and constricting, Motorcycle.com is proud to announce the addition of a new editor to our masthead. MO readers, meet Jon Langston, our new Associate Editor. I knew Langston was a cool cat when I first met him at the Harley-Davidson Blackline unveiling in January 2011.

Michael Alan Duff/Michelle Ann Duff

Wed, 29 Dec 2010

Spotted the link to this short film on a Dutch blog. It's beautifully shot/directed and captures GP rider Mike Duff's recovery from a horrific hip and pelvis injury suffered at the Japanese GP which cost him a six month stay in hospital. Watching him push-start makes you wince just imagining the pain he must have been in.
