Few old ones in the Bonhams auction Sunday 16th at Stafford

[seanofmacc]

First time at Stafford show and great stall holders if you have a 1923 something obscure and British or a 1970's/1980's Jap bike. In fact quite impressed with all the stuff for Kawasaki tripples. However only one stall found with various Harley bits. Rebuilt ironhead sporty engine on the stall plus a fair few SnS carbs. Did manage to find some oil lines, a few bolts and a shovelhead T shirt
Anyhow Bonhams host their auction at the show and there is a few old Harleys in there. Didn't see them in the flesh as wasn't buying a program to go and see but you can probably find on line

Knucklehead 40-45K

Was tempted to bid on the Spitfire or a Velo, but I need to sort out stuff first ----

First time there for us yesterday. A bit disappointed. More cheap tools and associated tat, than bike treasure. A lot of bikes in the auction though. Be interesting to see what prices they were fetching. Great to see a few familia faces inc. Nev & Lisa and Fxtc Dave

Considerably more than the guide price.

739cc WL project 5-8K Over £10k
Knucklehead 40-45K Almost £75k
750cc WL project 5-8k Over £10k
FL Duoglide 7-10k Over £16k

Maybe a response to the financial situation....investment in real things, that have a future demand? Historical, obvs, not practical.
