Classic motorcycle brokerage

Classic motorcycle brokerage is a safe, sane way to buy an investment grade classic motorcycle or to curate a complete classic motorcycle collection. There are four clear ways to buy with The Motorcycle Broker at four differing price points, which you can see below. This is not an auction service, auction houses sell motorcycles without proper due diligence, not running as seen on site. The idea of bidding against others is great fun but is hardly a sane environment in which to buy a classic motorcycle you know so little about. Buying a classic motorcycle using our brokerage service you are buying a bike with all due diligence undertaken, at the very minimum. This way, you know what you are buying in an environment where you can think through your purchase without pressure. The Motorcycle Broker gives you four excellent ways to purchase at four different price points.

The motorcycle looked fantastic in rthe auction catalogue. The auction house are exceptional about their due diligence and in their knowledge, which is unusual for an auction house in general as buyers are on their own with due diligence. This is about the nature of buying such a machine.

Classic motorcycle brokerage level 1

Classic motorcycle brokerage level 1 offers you the opportunity to know you are buying an investment grade classic motorcycle in terms of ingredients. The machine is sold as a trade sale, on site as seen, just like buying at auction, but we have done the due diligence and you receive a due diligence file with your classic motorcycle. We collect and deliver the bike to you included in the purchase price anywhere on the UK mainland. Using classic motorcycle brokerage level 1, you are safe in the knowledge that we have done the due diligence, so you know that the machine you are buying is correct and will be investment grade once any work is done. The due diligence file is already done when we list the motorcycle for sale, so we know the machine has all the ingredients for an investment grade classic motorcycle.

Classic motorcycle brokerage level 2

Classic motorcycle brokerage level 2 offers you the opportunity to buy at the exact same level as level 1, but we will have stripped off the bodywork, assessed the motorcycle fully, photographed the machine thoroughly and created a workshop file which demonstrates clearly exactly what work will nee to be undertaken and we give you an estimate for that work. We collect and deliver the motorcycle free of charge anywhere on the UK mainland. This is a great service for clients who are accumulating machines and wish to deal with them at a later date, just focusing on acquisition of investment grade classic motorcycles.

Award winning classic motorcycles

Award winning classic motorcycles from The Motorcycle Broker. Winner of Most Exceptional Motorcycle Award at the Concours D’Elegance Show at Salon Privé at Blenheim Palace 2021 for the MV Agusta 750 Sport we sourced and improved vastly for our customer. There is no higher accolade for motorcycles, regarding Concours D’Elegance shows, in the UK and this adds great value to our customers’ machines. We don’t charge for this as it raises our own profile and Salon Privé is an event we all love at The Motorcycle Broker. There are no motorcycles in the 2022 event, so we won’t be there for 2022, although there are plans for the motorcycles to return for 2023.
