Each month, RealClassic magazine features a superb selection of classic bikes and vintage motorcycles for sale, both private sales and from traders. Here’s our special showcase of six of the best from the May magazine – bikes you can buy, if you’re quick enough. Check out the Commando Fastback, a mildly-modded single-carb BSA 650 twin, Honda’s 1980’s take on the trad Brit single, and even a Hinckley Triumph…

You’ll find stacks more classic bikes for sale in the May issue of RealClassic magazine, including a couple of snazzy café racers, a Triumph T120R Bonneville, a Harley Panhead, and even a Moto Guzzi trike. Wows!
The descriptions of the bikes advertised are written by the vendors so obviously you should take all normal precautions before making a purchase: we recommend viewing in person whenever possible
Subscribers get first dibs at the Small Ads, so some of the bikes featured here may have sold already.
If you’d like to sell your classic / bike in RC, here’s the form to fill in. (Adverts appear in the very next issue, and we don’t repeat them unless the seller asks us to).
