When the owners retired in 1992, they closed the doors of Greenfield Honda and walked away, creating a time capsule of about 100 motorcycles — most from the 1970s and ’80s — and countless parts and memorabilia. Now, nearly a quarter century later, the bikes have been washed, cleaned and inventoried for a liquidation sale that auctioneer Yvette VanDerBrink says will attract thousands of potential buyers and others to Greenfield in September.

The guy running the show is Randy Baxter, who deals in bikes out of Marne, Iowa. His place is the stuff of legends and worthy of a trip just to look around. When I was there he graciously showed me and my nephew what he had stored in one of his buildings. There was a Rickman 750, a Dunstall Norton, an XKE Jag, you get the idea. He had a lot of military bikes, too. Tons of good parts.
