Good grief! What a shame about the awful Euro exchange rate. Lots 2 and 5
are lovely bikes and there are some nice Stieb sidecar machines towards the
end.

Now why didn't I win the Euro Lotto.

 

That sand K750 would make a lovely Elefant bike , but not at 20
grand....

It's all shite

Some of the prices are silly. Who'd pay up to e3500 for a 50,000 mile
R65LS, FFS?

Lot 24 isn't a 1982 R80, either: it's a later Monolever model.

Lot 26 (the early R100RS) would be my pick. Sensible estimate, too,
unlike the R65LS.

Lot 28 - an R100RS built up as an R100RT - is a nice thought.

And Lot 68 - the military combo mit trailer - is superb Elefant
material. My personal top pick.

 

Ho Yuss!

If getting round a m-way exit on the continent isn't sphincter clenching
enough..... add a well laden trailer!

 

One of the R90s's has the vin plate detatched. Would that be a problem
at registration time?

The R50 s and R60 s are cheap and the mid 80s R80GS is quite cheap.
Thats about all that would interest me. An R65LS with 80k Km on it at
that price especially as its in budget trim with a single disk they
can FOAD. Quite liked the R100cs as well but I have had one in the
past and whilst another one would be nice there are a few things
higher up the want list.
Mrs Boxer has just looked over my shoulder and said if I am not going
shopping for this lot I need a new name!

Who'd pay up to e2800 for lot 38 - a Ural sidecar?

 

Its the 'provenance' thing isn't it?
Marilyn Monroe's cheese grater fetched $25k......
