Motorcycle Investor mag Subscribe to our free email news Bargains at Barber, October 22 Buyers walked away with some incredible bargains at a Bonhams auction at the Barber Motorsports Museum in Birmingham (UK) on October 10. There is speculation the steep 25 per cent buyer premium may have dented the prices. In any case, here are a few examples: A 1984 Laverda RGS for Au$6800 (US$4800, GB£3600). A 2003 Buell XB9 for Au$3400 (US$2400, GB£1800); A 1997 Bimota YB11 Super Leggera for Au$7400 (US$5200, GB£3900); And a Triumph T100 SC for Au$3200 (US$3200, GB£1750). The majority of lots had been sitting idle and would have required some recommissioning, but those prices are nevertheless incredibly low. We suspect a few bidders wandered off, scarely believing their luck! See the full results here.
