The oil-cooled GSXr750 was launched in 1985 and revolutionized the sports bike market offering race track performance for the road, the range eventually including race replicas from 250cc to 1100c. By the early 1990s the bikes became water-cooled to comply with noise regulations but the ‘Gixxer’ range kept its reputation as the headbangers choice.
This GSXr750 has been part of a large and fascinating collection of bikes ranging from the 1980s up until the early 2000s. The vendor has enjoyed searching out examples of more or less all of the bikes he either owned or wanted in the day, but after amassing over 30 assorted models, from a Honda MT50 through to a couple of Bimotas, he’s decided to downsize his collection. The bike is presented in rare standard trim, still fitted with its original genuine Suzuki stainless exhaust stamped ‘17E1’. Stood for a few years, it will need some recommissioning before use and comes supplied with a few old MOTs and a current V5C.

Ducati have a long tradition of race-winning vee-twins that have gone on to dominate World Superbike racing over the years and the Massimo Tamburini-designed Paso range was launched in 1986 with its distinctive enclosed bodywork, initially with a 750cc engine but uprated to the 904cc motor in 1989. It is thought only about 1800 906 Pasos were ever made.
This 906 Paso has been part of a large and fascinating collection of bikes ranging from the 1980s up until the early 2000s. The vendor has enjoyed searching out examples of more or less all of the bikes he either owned or wanted in the day, but after amassing over 30 assorted models, from a Honda MT50 through to a couple of Bimotas, he’s decided to downsize his collection. The bike is presented in standard condition, fitted with a pair of Conti silencers but the original Black chrome ones are included in the sale. Not run for a number of years, it will need recommissioning before use and comes supplied with a genuine Ducati workshop manual and a current V5C.
