Mecum Auction Las Vegas 2018 Is Going On Now




It’s going on as we speak in Sin City through Saturday, and if you wander over to Mecum.com, you can see the results of what’s already sold for how much, along with everything that’s yet to be gavelled off. If you need a 1961 Victoria Model 15 Lot #F69, like the one in the photo, you better hurry. Speaking of sin, would you pay $13,000 for an original Honda GB500?

That’s what this 9000-mile example sold for. Gee, I dunno… maybe they’re big in Japan and somebody is a lot smarter than me? Another one just like this went for $11,000.

Personally, I think an original Suzuki RE-5 rotary might be more fun. It sold for $11,000. If you register at the Mecum site (just enter an email address), you can waste a couple hours browsing through all 46 pages of motorcycles and objets’ d moto for sale, including…

Lot S225, Buell RW750 #1 – Erik Buell’s very first race bike. Definitely collectible if a bit impractical.

I could totally go for a `76 Yamaha XT500, Lot T197, an ADV bike even a short person could easily swing a leg over. Quite a few Japanese bikes of the era seem to be selling for non-outrageous prices in the $5,000 range.

This Los Angeles Times story tells us there’ll probably be over 1,750 lots sold this week, expected to bring in over $14 million. They seem to run the entire gamut, from the very beginning of motorcycles right up to a hopped-up BMW HP4. Better book your flight immediately. Or just bid online at Mecum’s. Oh, and Bonham’s Las Vegas auction starts today, too. Let’s all get out there and stimulate the economy.
