Rare Ducati sold at BCA

BCA’s most recent Motorbike sale generated a huge amount of interest with nearly 150 bikes on offer including a new Ducati 1098 S and a Harley Davidson Custom Shop Fat Boy. Sales take place at BCA Peterborough on the last Friday of every month, with up to 200 motorbikes on offer.

Buyers packed the auction hall at BCA Peterborough for the sale on 30 March and the bidding was fast and furious throughout. Many had come to bid on the Ducati 1098 S, which is described as the most powerful and lightest twin-cylinder superbike in history. The Ducati lived up to its billing as the star of the show, selling for £13,100 – close to its list price of £14,000.

However, top price on the day went to the 2005-registered Harley Davidson Custom Shop Fat Boy, which had covered just 5,000 miles from new. This custom-built bike sold for £15,000. Another strong seller was the 2004-registered Ducati 998 Special Edition Matrix Reloaded, which realised £5,700.

In total, BCA sold 147 out of 148 motorbikes entered, generating a turnover of nearly £500,000 and an average selling price of £3,800.

BCA Peterborough Manager Andy McDonald commented “Our bike sales are attracting a huge turn out of buyers and we are fast becoming ‘the marketplace’ for motorbikes. Buyers tell us it is rare to get the opportunity to bid on so many motorbikes in one place at one time, and with such a range on offer, there is something for everybody in our sales.”
