Found on eBay: Zero-mile 1983 Suzuki XN85 Turbo

Okay, here’s something you don’t see every day. It’s a claimed brand new, never ridden, zero miles 1983 Suzuki XN85 Turbo. With fewer than 1,200 made, these are the rarest of all the turbos that came out of Japan in the early 1980s, and by some accounts the best, too.

The bike comes complete with the original owners manual, tool kit and warranty registration card. The owner claims it’s the last known new one in the world. To check out the auction for this time-warp turbo, go here.

Found on eBay: 1977 Suzuki GS750

A two-owner bike, this slick Suzuki GS750 is a bike we'd love to have sitting in the garage, ready for weekend cruising. Though the auction doesn't provide much info, the bike appears to be quite original and in good condition, right down to the decal on the chain guard that somehow is still there after all these years.

The gauges show less than 24,000 miles, the chrome appears to be just fine and the paint looks amazing for being more than 30 years old.

Wandering through the expanse that is eBay, many things caught our eye this week, but we kept coming back to what looks like a great original, useable classic, this 1963 BSA Thunderbolt.

Though the auction doesn't give much info about the care and maintenance of the bike, it appears to have just less than 23,000 miles on its' gorgeous Smiths Chronometric gauges and looks as though it has lead a pretty good life. All the original parts appear to be there, and though the chrome looks a bit worn, we like the patina.
