No Reserve: 1974 Norton Commando 850 Roadster
The 1974 Norton Commando 850 is a legendarily cantankerous British parallel-twin that refuses to stay dead—this one's got that correct right-side shift and honest air-cooled grunt that modern riders either worship or flee from. At four grand no-reserve, you're gambling on either scoring a genuine cult classic or learning why Norton went bankrupt, and that's exactly the kind of calculated risk that separates collectors from tourists.

No Reserve: 1969 Honda CT70 Trail
This 1969 Honda CT70 is the OG minibike that started the whole tiny-bike obsession—a fresh restoration in Candy Ruby Red with that bulletproof 72cc four-stroke that'll run forever if you just change the oil occasionally. At $3,200 no-reserve, you're getting the bike that made a generation believe small displacement could be pure fun, which is exactly what separates people who actually ride from people who just collect.
No Reserve: 2023 BMW R1250GS Adventure Trophy
A practically new 2023 R1250GS Adventure Trophy with just 5k miles hitting the auction block at $11k no-reserve is basically BMW's factory conceding the market won't bear full retail on even their trophy bike. If you've been priced out of the adventure-bike conversation, this is your shot at the real deal before some flipper figures it out.
