2006 Ducati 999 BipostoRegistration no. RL55 OUNFrame no. ZDMH400AE5B015508Engine no. 009462To say that the arrival of the 999 struck the Ducati world like a thunderbolt would be a gross understatement, so different was the newcomer from what had gone before. The model was introduced in 2002 as the 999 and 999 S, both of which used the 998cc Testastretta engine of the preceding 998. Today the quirky 999 has its own band of dedicated devotees, and there can be no denying that it represented a major step forward in performance terms over the outgoing 998. This Ducati 999 was part of a display of motorcycles and motor cars in a one-owner museum overseas until 2019 when it was acquired by the vendor and shipped the UK, arriving in February 2019. The odometer reading at the time of shipping was only 1,868 miles. The machine was then sent to Ducati Alton (WM Snell Performance) in Hampshire for a full service including new timing belt and MoT (at a cost of £1,300) then UK registered 'RL55 OUN'. The Ducati has been dry stored and regularly run to temperature but not ridden. Prior to the auction the bike will be fully serviced and MoT'd by Ducati Alton (bill on file). In excellent condition overall, it now displays only 1,870 miles. This pristine low-mileage Ducati 999 is offered with a V5C, fresh MoT, the aforementioned service bills and a rear paddock stand. Offered with keyFootnotes:All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
Property of a deceased's estate 1970 Egli-Vincent 499cc Comet ReplicaRegistration no. NJT 422HFrame no. CTG 022Engine no. F5AB/2A/4977 Crankcase Mating No. 82N / 82N•Frame supplied by Cyril Maylem•First registered in 2011•Not ridden since completion•Requires fine tuningOne of the world's best known motorcycle frame makers, Swiss engineer Fritz Egli built his first frame in what would turn out to be a highly successful attempt to tame the wayward handling of his Vincent v-win racer. The Vincent used a spine-type frame and so did Egli, though his was tubular rather than box-section and all-welded rather than bolt-up in construction. This trademark large-diameter spine has been a feature of virtually all Egli's frames made since, proving adaptable to almost all types of motorcycle engine layout from British singles to across-the-frame Japanese fours. These days widely regarded as a marque in its own right, it is the Egli-Vincent v-twin, with its exciting combination of classic power and modern chassis technology, that has proved to be his most enduring legacy. First registered in 2011 (as an Egli Vincent Special), this Comet-engined Egli-Vincent was built by its late owner and a friend, Peter Wardropper. The engine, gearbox and primary drive were purchased by the late owner fully restored, by whom is not known, while the frame and fuel tank were supplied by Cyril Maylem. The engine has correct factory stamps. Cycle parts (i.e. wheels, brakes, forks) were purchased new from Norvil (the footrests are new-old-stock Norton Commando). Other notable features include modern switchgear, matching 5' instruments, and an Alton electric starter motor, while many small parts were specially made for the project. Initially an Amal GP carburettor was tried but without success. One of Cyril's Vincent friends suggested the Mikuni carburettor, which was fitted and set up. The bike was run on several occasions but was never easy to start, and unfortunately its constructors never had the opportunity to get it fully sorted. The Egli was last taxed in 2013 and has recorded only 1 mile. Beautifully presented, this unique Egli-inspired 'special' comes with a V5C document, VOC certificate, and luggage (not shown). Offered without keyFootnotes:All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
