$8,600 – 2015 KTM 1190 Adventure R

The 2015 KTM 1190 Adventure R is a formidable adventure-touring motorcycle designed for riders who crave a blend of on-road performance and off-road prowess. Powered by a 1195cc V-twin engine delivering 148 horsepower, it offers exhilarating acceleration and a top speed exceeding 140 mph, making it one of the most powerful in its class. Its lightweight chrome-molybdenum frame, combined with 8.6 inches of fully adjustable WP suspension and a 21-inch front wheel with knobby tires, ensures exceptional handling on dirt trails, gravel, and pavement.

The advanced Bosch MSC electronics suite, including lean-sensitive ABS and traction control with four ride modes (Sport, Street, Rain, Offroad), provides versatility for varied conditions, while the 6.1-gallon fuel tank supports a range of approximately 200–240 miles. With a tall 35-inch seat height and a dry weight of 478 lbs, it’s a beast that demands skill, particularly off-road, but rewards with unmatched capability for crossing continents or shredding trails.

With 46,750 miles, this 2015 KTM 1190 Adventure R has seen significant use, likely reflecting a history of long-distance adventures or rigorous off-road riding. While KTM’s robust engineering ensures reliability—evidenced by reports of bikes enduring nearly 100,000 miles with minimal issues—high mileage raises considerations for maintenance history and component wear. Common concerns include airbox dust ingress, fuel pump durability, and potential oil sensor or ABS sensor issues, though upgrades like airbox gaskets or fuel filters can mitigate these.

The bike’s clutch cover and skid plate are vulnerable off-road, so checking for aftermarket protection or past repairs is crucial. With proper care (e.g., oil changes every 9,320 miles, valve checks every 18,641 miles), this motorcycle remains a thrilling, capable choice for adventure riders, offering a balance of raw power and technical sophistication, though its firm seat and minimal windscreen may limit long-ride comfort for some.

$6,750 – 2008 Harley-Davidson VRSCDX Night Rod Special Edition

$6,750 – 2008 Harley-Davidson VRSCDX Night Rod Special Edition

The 2008 Harley-Davidson VRSCDX Night Rod Special is a striking embodiment of Harley’s Dark Custom series, exuding a menacing, blacked-out aesthetic that sets it apart from its peers. With minimal chrome, its drag bars, forward controls, and sleek, drag-bike-inspired silhouette create a bold, aggressive stance. The contrasting racing stripe paint scheme accentuates its “darker and nastier” vibe, with components like the fork legs, swingarm, mirrors, and exhaust covers cloaked in black, enhancing its rebellious character and commanding presence on the road.

At the heart of the Night Rod Special lies a potent 1250cc Revolution V-Twin engine, a liquid-cooled, 60° V-twin with DOHC and four valves per cylinder, originally engineered for the CVO Screamin’ Eagle V-Rod. Upgraded from 1130cc with a larger 105 mm bore, it delivers an impressive 125 horsepower at 8,250 rpm and 85 ft-lbs of torque at 7,000 rpm, ensuring explosive off-the-line power. Paired with Electronic Sequential Port Fuel Injection (ESPFI) for smooth power delivery and a slipper clutch for enhanced control, this bike rivals 600cc sport bikes in straight-line acceleration, though its 4.2-inch ground clearance limits cornering agility.

Designed for both performance and accessibility, the Night Rod Special features high-performance Brembo triple-disc brakes (dual 300 mm front discs and a single 300 mm rear disc, all with four-piston calipers) and an optional ABS for confident stopping power. Its 240 mm wide rear tire, mounted on 18-inch Black Machined Slotted Disc Cast Aluminum wheels with orange pinstriping, ensures a bold stance and superior grip, complemented by a 19-inch front wheel. With the lowest seat height in the VRSC lineup at 25.2 inches (laden), it accommodates a wide range of riders, though taller riders may find the forward controls slightly cramped during aggressive rides, while still enjoying comfort for longer journeys.
