 CB750 sandcasts sold for $18,150- 26,400- 29,700- 30,000- 31,900- 37,000. K0 through K1 sold between 7 and 12K. A 72 was 3850- a 74 was 9900 and a 76 went for 3850.
 I thought the sandcast prices held up well considering how many there are. I saw in past sales the one at the John Parham Museum sale that had many incorrect parts, some of these might have too.
 There were 69 K0's not advertised as sandcast, I guess there may be some, my 5511 got a 70 title, even though the 9800 bike that sold next left the same dealer with its 69 title.

 click on the day you want to see.

the hb1 went for 46 which is crazy money for a poor copy , the mv went for 52 which is cheap .

Don….. Thanks for the report. Much appreciated!

 I think the Kawasaki's saw a market correction, they came out of the woodwork and that's driving the price down, much like the Sandcasts. One just didn't sell at $16K, I think demand has been satisfied for this event.

 Prototype sold for $285,000. It must have been obvious who the bidders were, it went quick.

I had to laugh when i saw the hb1 bimota . Its described as the only hb1 replica .

Sure it didn't say "only a HB-1 replica"? 😉

That’s a crazy amount (but significantly below the estimates?).

A blue-green K0 750 brought $13K pretty late, it was listed as a 1970 K1.

I would not been surprised if it sold for more. It's a 1 of 1...

with luck it went to a museum so people can have a look at it . must admit while it is interesting it was too much money

 That was a chunk of change for a replica, more than the prototype, $330K which is difficult for me to understand even though it's an amazing bike in its own right. I'd love to know more about the 6 cylinder engine

Barber is a place to see! Its a real special Place.
