"A drivable mechanical work of art on wheels, quite simply. Nothing more, nothing less."

Description

It started life as a Yamaha TR1 from 1981. When the bike builder John Burgess, an Englishman in the Swedish countryside outside Bromölla, saw an Italian build called Fireball, he became completely obsessed with building something similar. This is the result. You can read the entire history in the PDFs next to this from a report in Allt om MC from 2019.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Very little driven, and it is also not completely easy to drive due to the steering crown and tank limiting the steering angle, resulting in a large turning circle. However, it functions properly. Because it has been stationary for a couple of years, it requires a service before it can be used.

  • Interior condition:

    Beautiful self-made saddle like so much else that is beautiful on this bike.

  • Exterior condition:

    There are many lovely details and constructions to get lost in. Resting your eyes on a bike like this is a feast for the eyes of a genius designer as well as an innovative engineer. Or for anyone who enjoys cool motorcycles.

  • General condition:

    It's a fantastic bike, as well as an ornament, an installation, and a mechanically beautiful monument.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
  • For items that have not been collected within 14 days storage costs may be charged.
