Here’s just a few of the fantastic modern classic machines available this week:   

Yamaha FZR400RR

1993 Yamaha FZR400RR – £1100
Screaming, superb-handling, four-cylinder pocket rocket. Still good fun today.
We say: Never as popular as Honda’s ‘mini-RC30’ VFR400RR but just as good. Decent condition and cheap.

 

Yamaha RD350LC

1981 Yamaha RD350LC – £5489
Iconic hooligan stroker surpassed collectable status years ago. Good ones (like this) starting to go for big money.
We say: This restored example ticks all the boxes (colours, nick, originality) but it’s still an eye-watering price.

 

Yamaha RD350YPVS

1983 Yamaha RD350YPVS – £1500
Power-valved LC successor is better all-round but lacks same cachet.
We say: Decent example of first generation YPVS, which is most collectable. Decent value, too.

 

Suzuki RG250

1984 Suzuki RG250 – £695
Arguably first of full-on GP replicas with pioneering alloy frame and racy styling.
We say: Cute, easy to work on and decent value, though paint non-original.
