This 1969 Honda CB750 sold for $30,800. Early production Honda CB750 engines were sand-cast until such time as the company was sure that a market existed for the model. Quite obviously, the market did exist and soon engines were being produced with die casting. The rougher sand-cast finish on the air-cooled cylinders and crankcase set the very early CB750 apart from its successors. These bikes are clearly entering hallowed ground.

An unprecedented number of motorcycles sold in Las Vegas this year and although many of the more fancied lots didn't sell, the strength of the marketplace was clearly evident by a 50 percent increase in turnover. What's more, the market appears to be moving upwards for motorcycles manufactured in the seventies and eighties due to new blood in the collector ranks.

The 2017 Las Vegas motorcycle auctions combined Mecum's four-day auction (January 25 to 28) with Bonhams' one day event on January 26 for a major kickstart to the collectible motorcycle year. More than 1000 collectible motorcycles changed hands over four days, which is enough data to identify a few trends that portend what will happen over the rest of the year. See our trends report from Las Vegas on movement in the collector motorcycle marketplace.

The following sales constitute the top 150 sales in Las Vegas with images and links to the official auction pages.

Note that Mecum, which sold the majority of the bikes in Las Vegas, cites the hammer price of each bike on its website, while Bonhams quotes the total price (including commissions) to the buyer. We think the total price paid is the right number to be looking at, so we have converted the Mecum prices to the total price for the purposes of this listing.

The top selling Vincent of many in Vegas was this 1955 Vincent Series D Black Knight which sold for $150,000

Bonhams Auction Description

The Black Knight is the rarest of the Series D Vincent V-twins produced in 1954 and 1955, though as an enclosed Rapide (the enclosed Shadow is known as the Black Prince), it is generally less celebrated and sought-after than its slightly faster royal brethren. Just the same, this Black Knight set a new record price for the model with this sale by achieving the highest ever price at auction of the 101 original Black Knights produced.

It also went to Vegas via a rather circuitous route, having been originally sold new to Cuba, before taking up residence in Pennsylvania for many years. The subject of an extensive restoration five years ago it hasn't covered many miles since and presented in Vegas in concours condition. It has also been "sorted" with a Black Shadow specification engine, Lightning-specification brakes and Works Performance suspension at both ends.

$30,800 | 1969 Honda CB750

This 1969 Honda CB750 sold for $30,800. Early production Honda CB750 engines were sand-cast until such time as the company was sure that a market existed for the model. Quite obviously, the market did exist and soon engines were being produced with die casting. The rougher sand-cast finish on the air-cooled cylinders and crankcase set the very early CB750 apart from its successors. These bikes are clearly entering hallowed ground.
