Motorcycle Auction

The new date for the 30th annual Mecum Motorcycle in Las Vegas will take place on April 28-May 1 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The auction will feature more than 1,750 vintage and antique motorcycles for a five-day period. The auction was originally scheduled for January 26-31but due to the Covid Virus outbreaks in the greater Las Vegas area, Mucum was forced to reschedule the show. There are many motorcycle enthusiasts that have been anticipating this show.

One of the most exciting motorcycles to be auctioned in April will be the 1917 Excelsior Big X with military forks, a 61 CI V-Twin engine, and a Luxor acetylene headlamp.

Another awesome motorcycle that will be auctioned is the 1952 Harley-Davidson K Model four-speed with a 45 CL engine. It is painted a beautiful Pearl White paint, and the seller just rebuilt the engine. This thing should sell fast

But the main headliner is the Philip Vincent’sV-twin 1950 Vincent Black Lightning. This motorcycle is a legendary bike in motorcycling history. It features a new 70-horsepower engine and has an amazing top speed of 150 mph. There were only 31 cycles ever produced and should garner a hefty sum.

As history shows us, motorcycles have been around since the first 1885 Daimler Reitwagen made by Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach in Germany.  The Daimler Reitwagen is considered to be the first internal combustion (iCE) motorcycle. However, the Hildebrand & Wolfmüller, made in 1894, was the first production motorcycle to be manufactured across the planet. Since then, there have been hundreds of different types of motorcycles manufactured and some of them are right here in this upcoming auction.

Some of these Motorcycle Brands and Marques that will be auctioned in July are Ducati, Honda, BMW, Yamaho, Motobi, Triumph, Exelsior, Suzuki, Motobecane, Harley-Davidson, Buell, Rokon, Handy, Coats, Tony Kart, Rickman, BSA, Velocette, MZ, KTM, Norton, Greeves, Champion, Bultaco, MV Augusta, and Zundapp Sachs. All of these motorcycles came from private collections.

In total, there will be over twenty private motorcycle collections auctioned during the entire event. Some of the motorcycle collections for sale include The J.c. Burgin Motorcycle Collection, The Stephenson Collection, The Dick Ray Estate Collection, The Northern California Superbike Collection, The George Schott Collection, From The Estate Of Don Harrell, From The E.j.
