Welcome to What We’re Watching. This feature highlights some of the auctions we are following – especially those that are about to close. Handy if you’re curious about where values are going, or just want to snipe in at the last minute to score a deal!
This is what is HOT right now:
1993 Moto Guzzi Daytona 1000
This has got to be one the best looking Guzzis ever produced – and from your comments you seem to agree. Bidding has been surprisingly slow, with the current price a mere $8,465. THE RESERVE IS OFF so it looks like this one is going to sell. Check it out before Jimmy Fallon comes on the tube tonight – after that it’s gone!
1985 Honda 750 Interceptor with HRC motor!
This auction is distinctively NOT hot at the moment, but it should be. How often do you come across a clean and period correct Interceptor? Semi rare, but maybe not *that* big of a deal. However when said, stock Interceptor comes with a full factory HRC engine kit PLUS race fairings? Surely that grabs your attention. No takers on this one thus far. If you are biding your time, you have less than 24 hours; when the banks open on Wednesday in New York, this one will be over.
1978 Yamaha TZ250 Street Bike
This is obviously the work of some mad genius, and all who love transfer ports and blue smoke should bow their heads in respect…or bid on this street-going GP racer (like many people have). Lots of bids, a current ask of $6,400 and a reserve in place. With 24 hours to go, this is center court for spectators. It’s clear that many people are interested in this crazy machine, so don’t miss out on the action. If it’s after lunch in California on Wednesday, you’ve already missed it (but do yourself a favor and check out the bidding history – it’s going to be nuts).
If you like what you see, move quickly. Every auction listed above will closed by tomorrow – at the latest. Don’t forget to sign up for our free email service, and never miss a great deal on a rare bike again. Good luck and happy sniping!
