So what do you all think my bike is worth?Doug Polen's #2 '93 corsa.It was purchased from FBF and raced in the '94 AMA SBK . <snip>.What do you think?
Thanks Tom

Hi Tom,

I think your bike should be worth $30k--$35k stateside.
Having seen it in person, it's sure a beauty.

With those credentials and provinance.... that bike should bring at least $60k........maybe even $100k if the right people are there.

This should be interesting.

If anyone sees the results......please post a link.

Thanks......Mike

Yep,

Fuck me to tears Paul,

Mate what’s the bet that Mike has it in his stable

[mrc.engr]

No worries Paul, I was quite wrong on this one.... as it should have sold for double or triple....... but I'm sure glad it didn't........ )

Cheers.

I have some really bad news for you guys. The hammer price was actually $15,000. The $17,250 was the price with the auction premium. Someone got an ex-corsa works 851 racer for less than the cost of a new 1198...

Phil,

There you go an extra bargain to be had

[AJV]

Bonhams has an excellent global reputation...

But given the very low price they obtained not that long ago for an SPS and now this I don't think i'd want them to sell any of my bikes.

I'd have expected that Corsa to make a minimum £30k in Europe.

Somebody got a bargain!
