Sell A Classic Motorcycle
British iron, Japanese retros and barn finds — looked at by people who know them.
Classics are the one category where an automated valuation tool is genuinely useless. Two identical model years can be thousands apart depending on originality, matching numbers, restoration quality and how long it has been standing. That is precisely why every quote here is reviewed by a person.
British twins, seventies Japanese fours, eighties race replicas, unfinished restorations and machines that have not turned a wheel since the nineties - all of it gets a proper look and an honest figure.
- Free collection anywhere in mainland UK
- Every quote reviewed by a real person

Classics we buy
A rough guide rather than a limit.
What a classic is judged on
The more we know upfront, the firmer the offer — and the less chance of it changing when we collect.
Originality
Matching numbers, original paint and period-correct parts carry a premium. A tidy but incorrect restoration is worth less than an honest, unrestored survivor.
Documented history
Old MOTs, dating certificates, receipts and previous V5s all build the story. On a classic, paperwork is genuinely part of the value.
Restoration quality
Who did the work matters. Known specialist restorations with invoices are worth considerably more than an unrecorded home rebuild.
How long it has stood
A machine that has been dry-stored and turned over regularly is a very different prospect to one that has sat damp for twenty years.
