2007 Harley-Davidson VRSCDX Night Rod - $23,000 (no lowballers, we're not desperate)

Up for grabs is a bike that's so rad, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it. The Vivid Black and Sunset Orange combo is like a party on two wheels, and the 1250cc Porsche-engineered Revolution V-Twin is the life of the party

With 34,944 miles (approx. 56,200 km) on the clock, this Night Rod is like a comfortable pair of jeans - it's broken in just right. It's in fair condition, ready to hit the open road and make some memories (or bad decisions, we won't judge).

Premium Upgrades & Performance Mods, because why settle for basic? :
โ€ข Trask 2:1 Exhaust System: because loud pipes save lives (or at least that's what we tell ourselves).
โ€ข 18" T-Bars: because who needs ultra comfort when you can have style?
โ€ข Daymaker LED Headlight: because seeing is believing (and also because it's really bright).
โ€ข Blacked-Out Forward Controls: because who doesn't love a little mystery?
โ€ข Adaptiv TPX Radar Detector: because we've all been there - you know, when you're cruising along and suddenly you're like, 'oh no, is that a cop?' ๐Ÿ˜ฌ
Freshly Serviced & 100% Turn-Key: because we're not trying to sell you a lemon.
โ€ข Brand New Rear Tyre: because we don't want you to have to worry about blowing out on the highway.
โ€ข Fresh Fluids: because clean oil is happy oil.
โ€ข New rear brake pads: because stopping is important (trust us on this one).

Details:
โ€ข Year: 2007
โ€ข Model: VRSCDX Night Rod Special
โ€ข Mileage: 34,944 miles
โ€ข WOF: Valid until 21 November 2026 - New WoF when sold
โ€ข Rego: On hold until 10/10/2027

This bike is like a good joke - it's all about the delivery. And trust us, this one delivers.

No test rides without proof of funds/license. Serious buyers only, please. No trades on this one.

Because who needs roads when you can have a bike that's smaller than a toaster?

We're talkin' tiny, quirky, and full of character!

They're like the fun-sized Snickers bars of the bike world - all the flavour, none of the guilt (or parking nightmares)!
These itsy-bitsy bikes are packed with personality, quirky designs, and a whole lotta charm. And, fun fact: they were all the rage in Japan back in the 80s!
The Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) was like a never-ending parade of teeny-tiny two-wheelers, and we are ๐—›๐—˜๐—ฅ๐—˜. ๐—™๐—ข๐—ฅ. ๐—œ๐—ง.

โ€ข The Concept: Released during Japanโ€™s mid-1980s "racer replica" boomโ€”when manufacturers built shrunken-down 50cc versions of their championship-winning, full-sized super-sport bikesโ€”Suzuki took a tongue-in-cheek approach.

โ€ข The Parody: They built a 3/4-scale, fully faired mini-superbike weighing just 64 kg that looked like a serious track racer, but powered it with a humble, slow 5.2-horsepower 4-stroke engine borrowed from the Suzuki Birdie utility step-through scooter.

โ€ข Suzuki's Official Definition: Recognizing the unusual moniker, Suzuki stated that the machine was meant as a light-hearted "gag"โ€”defining it officially as "super fun for teenagers and boisterous adults with a spirit of adventure and a sense of humour."

โ€ข Legacy: This little joke of a bike started a mini-replica craze, and we're forever grateful for it! We've got a whole collection of these teeny-tiny bikes at our shop in Tauriko - 19 of them, to be exact! So, if you're looking for a small but mighty ride, come on down and take a look-see!

The Kawasaki H1 500, better known as the Mach III, is one of the most iconic motorcycles of the 1970s. Its 499cc two-stroke triple earned a fearsome reputation for raw, unfiltered performance, and these air-cooled triples remain highly sought after by collectors and riding enthusiasts alike.

This 1974 model was registered new in NZ on 01-Jan-1976

Key Specifications
โ€ข Engine: 498cc air-cooled, two-stroke inline triple
โ€ข Horsepower: 59โ€“60 hp at 7,500โ€“8,000 rpm
โ€ข Transmission: 5-speed
โ€ข Weight: Approx. 188 kg
โ€ข Top Speed: Around 184 km/h

Character & Evolution
โ€ข The Ride: By 1974 (the H1F model), the bike had evolved from its earlier, notoriously wild "๐™’๐™ž๐™™๐™ค๐™ฌ ๐™ˆ๐™–๐™ ๐™š๐™ง" reputation into a slightly more civilized machine.

โ€ข Handling: It featured a reinforced frame and front disc brakes to help manage the sudden surge of power common to Kawasaki's triple engines

โ€ข The Legacy: These bikes are highly sought after, finding one with such low kms and in such amazing original condition is extremely rare in NZ

Immaculate condition, original parts (including the spark plug holder)
Period correct parts, original decals, stunning paintwork and overall condition
Ultra low Kms at only 2270kms
This has been through the workshop, oil pump rebuilt with new seals, fettled and dialed-in

Rego is on Hold until: 20/02/2027
WoF - Will come with a fresh WoF when sold.

In 1988, Kawasaki launched the KR1, a 250cc two-stroke road racing replica, competing against Honda, Suzuki, and Yamaha. Despite being the first to end production in 1992, the KR1 carved out a niche with its excellent handling, top speed, and ease of tuning. Less than 10,000 units were produced, making it a rare gem for loyal fans. ๐Ÿ๏ธ

The 1967 Norton Atlas carved out a unique and enduring legacy in New Zealand's motorsport history, primarily establishing itself as a dominant force in local production-class road racing and beach racing during the late 1960s. In an era when Kiwis were highly resourceful "backyard engineers," the Atlas became a coveted platform for New Zealand privateers. They took full advantage of its rigid Slimline Featherbed frame and high-torque 745cc engine, stripping the heavy highway cruisers down into competitive track weapons to race at legendary local circuits like Pukekohe, Levin, and the Burt Munro-famed Oreti Beach

New Zealand History
โ€ข The "Parts-Bin" Special Era: Due to New Zealand's historical import restrictions and high tariffs on complete foreign vehicles, Kiwi racers frequently imported standalone 1967 Norton Atlas/P11 engines to build custom hybrids, like our Race Bike.
โ€ข The Ultimate Cafe Racer Platform: Many 1967 road models imported into New Zealand were modified by local enthusiasts into "Triton" or "Norvin" style cafe racers, blending the Atlas power plant with alternative racing components.
โ€ข Survival and Collectibility: Because of the tight-knit local classic motorcycle community, New Zealand remains an active hub for fully restored and running Atlas models. Highly specialised local automotive collectors, such as Adrenalyn New Zealand, actively preserve rare racing variants like the hybrid Atlas-powered P11 scramblers

Usage & Legacy:
While designed for high-speed highway cruising and touring, the Atlas was widely modified by privateers for club racing and drag racing. Its high-torque engine made it incredibly fast, though riders had to endure severe engine vibrations at high RPMs. The Atlas served as Norton's flagship model until it was replaced by the rubber-mounted, vibration-free Commando.

Key Specifications & Features
โ€ข Engine Type: 745cc air-cooled parallel twin.
โ€ข Power Output: 49 horsepower at 6,800 RPM.
โ€ข Top Speed: 120 mph (193 km/h).
โ€ข Carburation: Twin Amal Monobloc carburetors.
โ€ข Electrical System: Upgraded 12-volt

A 1971 Yamaha CS3B 200 Electric in its original metallic purple is extremely rare globally, and even more so in New Zealand. As a classic 195cc two-stroke, it was only produced for a couple of years. Finding one in the wildโ€”let alone an NZ-new model in the striking original purpleโ€”is a major challenge.

A true "Barn Find" - NZ New (original plate : 997TG, first registered on 08-03-1971)
Motor runs
Needs finishing and recertifying (if you intend to put it back on the road - We can assist here).
Sympathetic paint stabilisation to protect what's there and to retain its patina
Matching Engine and Frame numbers

The 1971 Yamaha CS3B 200 Electric in Metallic Purple (often referred to as "Popsicle Purple") is quite rare. While exact production numbers are unavailable, purple was the hero colour for the US market that year and it has become an increasingly scarce collectorโ€™s item.

Why It's Rare & Collectible
โ€ข One-Year-Only Run: The CS3B (low-pipe street model) was essentially a one-year model specifically designed to fill the 200cc displacement gap before the RD200 line took over.
โ€ข The "Groovy" Paint: "Metallic Purple" with white pinstripes and colour-matched purple headlight and side panels was incredibly popular but fragile over the decades. Surviving original, un-faded purple tank sets are uncommon.
โ€ข Electric Start: Having a reliable electric start/dynamo setup on a lightweight two-stroke street bike was highly advanced for its time.

Exhausts:
The factory exhaust system for a 1971 Yamaha CS3B 200 consists of a highly distinctive, low-slung, twin chrome exhaust setup. Each cylinder features its own separate exhaust assembly running straight back along the bottom left and right sides of the bike.
The factory design includes several key identifying details:
โ€ข The "Cigar" Profile: The silencer body starts slender at the front collar, gradually swells into a cylindrical body, and tapers down cleanly toward a rounded tip at the very rear.
โ€ข Two-Piece Assembly: The exhaust is split into a curved chrome header pipe that bolts directly to the cylinder port, which then clamps into the main lower silencer body via a small circular collar.
โ€ข Integral Mounting Brackets: Original pipes feature permanent, triangular metal mounting tabs welded directly to the top edge of the chrome body to secure them to the motorcycle's frame tabs.

Specs:
โ€ข 198cc parallel-twin engine
โ€ข 5-speed manual gearbox
โ€ข Purple tank with White pinstriping
โ€ข Chrome fenders
โ€ข Black 2-up seat with passenger strap
โ€ข Polished spoke wheels
โ€ข Chrome dual exhaust
