An interesting and intriguing bike at the upcoming Bonhams auction is this 1480cc replica of the bike Cal Raybourn raced in 1972’s Trans-Atlantic Match series. The sportster based machine features many upgrades over stock and was built as a one off by an enthusiast and is road ready. Apparently this labour of love was quite expensive as evidenced by the pile of receipts that will come with the machine should you be the successful bidder. The estimated successful bid is between $11,000 and $15,000 CDN…. and you’ll have to pay the shipping from England.
