Motorcycle Auctions
florence:
Has anyone here bought bikes at auction (not online) and if so was it worthwhile and a good experience/ value etc.
Any thoughts welcome as I am thinking about buying another bike for a project and notice that ebay prices are generally quite high as ebay is available to all 24/7.

Greetings from Memmingham Airport Germany. If I was in the market for a fully restored bike I think I would go to an auction & not deal with the horse traders like frank and freddie or eBay sharks. I will be at the Sunday Bonhams auction at Stafford to witness the bidding on YLY 70H the 750 K0 press bike

Don't forget to factor in the buyers premium plus VAT if you want to bid

If you mean me Bryan ;D ;D... I won't be bidding on anything, I will have my mitts firmly clamped in my pockets, otherwise my missus will have another part of my anatomy clamped very firmly , should I be tempted to buy anything, as I now have 8 project bikes. The USA auctions have to be the best .. I know it was 2 years ago and I am always banging on about it but a 3k mile totally original Museum sandcast 750 for less than 10k GBP said it all for me.......... and it wasn't a one off as there had been another one sold at a similar bargain price shortly before that.
