Last month we saw some great bikes – but did they sell? And if so, for how much?

This list will only include listings from eBay (or other auction sites). I unfortunately have no way of finding out final sale prices of bikes offered on Craigslist/Cycle Trader/Kijiji/etc. With that said, here are some highlights from last month:

Restomod – 1983 Suzuki Katana GS1100 – sold for $7,600 after 21 bids on eBay in Valencia, California.

1977 Honda CB550F Super Sport – sold for $6,400 after 16 bids on eBay in Saratoga Springs, New York.

#198 of 200 – 1978 Kawasaki KZ1000 Spirit of America – sold for $8,200 after 23 bids on eBay in Laingsburg, Michigan.

“Concours Ready” – 1979 Moto Guzzi LeMans II CX100 – sold for $9,500 after 22 bids on eBay in Wichita Falls, Texas.

Rare Italian – 1973 MV Agusta 150GT – sold for $2,550 after 12 bids on eBay in Idyllwild, California.

3 Miles – 1981 Honda CBX – sold for $15,100 after 3 bids on eBay in Swansea, Massachusetts.

Unexpected Dragster – 1964 Yamaha YDS2 – sold for $1,525 after 7 bids on eBay in Merlin, Oregon.

1972 Honda CB750 – sold for a best offer of $6,000 on eBay in Los Angeles, California.

Restored With No Reserve – 1981 Suzuki RM465 – sold for $4,550 after 33 bids on eBay in Pevely, Missouri.

No Reserve – 1979 Honda CBX – sold for $8,500 after 35 bids on eBay in Tampa, Florida.

Rare Project – 1942 Harley-Davidson XA – sold for $33,544 after 6 bids on eBay in Maggive Valley, North Carolina.

78 Miles – 2013 Yamaha TW200 – sold for $3,150 after 46 bids on eBay in Duarte, California.

1998 Ducati 916 SPS – sold for $12,700 after 47 bids on eBay in Tryon, North Carolina.

1985 Moto Guzzi Le Mans 1000 MKIV – sold for $5,995 after 14 bids on eBay in Miami, Florida.

In Italy – 1977 MV Agusta Ipotesi – sold for $6,501 after 4 bids on eBay in Bassano del Grappa, Italy.

Two-Stroke Triple – 1975 Suzuki GT550 – sold for $5,350 after 5 bids on eBay in Anaheim, California.

1 of 150 – 2008 Ducati 848 Nicky Hayden Edition – sold for $8,500 after 8 bids on eBay in Centennial, Wyoming.

New In Crate – 1975 Triumph Trident T160– Bidding got up to over $33,000 but with less than a day to go this Trident was pulled off of eBay because “the item is no longer available.” Looks like the seller got an offer he or she couldn’t refuse, but I do not know what the dollar figure was.

Here’s some stuff that didn’t sell:

Japanese/Swedish – 1979 Yamaha HL500 – did not get any interest at the asking opening bid of $6,500 on eBay in Denver, Colorado.

Military Vehicle – 1999 Harley-Davidson MT500 – did not meet reserve despite 36 bids up to $5,101 in Costa Mesa, California. The seller relisted the bike with a BIN of $7,000 with no interest.

1964 Honda CA110 Sport 50 – did not meet reserve despite 44 bids up to $1,750 in Reno, Nevada.

2006 Ducati Paul Smart 1000 Limited Edition – did not meet reserve despite 39 bids up to $18,300 in Danbury, Connecticut.

Nice Price – 2017 Victory Octane Street Tracker – surprisingly, this did not sell for the BIN of $5,500 in Sumner, Illinois.

Ending Soon – 1974 Suzuki Exacta – did not meet reserve despite 27 bids up to $2,800 in Sachshe, Texas.
