Highlighted Motorcycles
Honda Motocompo (AB12)
Small in size but huge in character, the Honda Motocompo is one of the most recognizable Japanese minibikes of the 1980s. Introduced as a compact folding scooter designed to fit into the luggage area of small Honda cars such as the City, its unusual concept and unmistakable styling have turned it into a sought-after collector’s bike.
For buyers looking for something distinctly Japanese and a little different from the usual classics, the Motocompo is difficult to beat.
Suzuki GAG (LA41A)
The Suzuki GAG is another great example of Japan’s wonderfully unconventional motorcycle industry of the 1980s. Despite its miniature proportions and 50cc engine, Suzuki styled the GAG to resemble a full-size sports bike, complete with a fairing and racing-inspired appearance.
Today, these little machines have a strong following among collectors of Japanese minibikes and make an entertaining addition to any collection.
Honda CR125R (JE01)
At the other end of this container’s personality is the Honda CR125R. Honda’s lightweight two-stroke motocross machines developed an excellent reputation through decades of competition, and surviving examples are increasingly interesting to enthusiasts of classic motocross bikes.
With the distinctive sound, light weight, and responsive nature that made two-stroke motocross machines so popular, the CR125R represents a very different era of off-road motorcycling.
