MOVE TO THE MUSCLE LOUNGE: Take Your Bidding to New Heights

More than a decade ago, Barrett-Jackson introduced a new on-site option for its customers: the Muscle Lounge. This special private suite is an elevated area located behind the main floor seating in the auction arena. As you relax at the high-top seating you can enjoy first-rate views of all the action, your favorite beverages, delicious complimentary food and a dedicated bidder assistant to ensure your bids are immediately made known to the auctioneers on the block.

Since the first offering the Muscle Lounge quickly proved itself to be the perfect place for Barrett-Jackson bidders and consignors to enjoy the event with their team members or friends in an exclusive luxury atmosphere. Purchasing Muscle Lounge tickets is as simple as indicating your interest on your bidder registration form. Muscle Lounge tickets can also be purchased on-site at the auction office during each event, but the experience has proved so popular that it often sells out, so advance purchase is recommended.

Barrett-Jackson offers its premium Muscle Lounge packages at all its 3-day events – including the upcoming inaugural New Orleans Auction – for $750 per person, while the 9-day Scottsdale Auction tickets typically range from $1,000-$1,300 each.

Treat yourself to the elevated Muscle Lounge experience and register to bid today – click the “Bid” tab on the home page of Barrett-Jackson.com to get started!

For more information, email bidders@barrett-jackson.com or call 480-421-6694 and ask for the Bidder Department.

The latest motorcycle news, customs and classics
The first two bikes on our list this week prove that there’s customization potential in every motorcycle. A custom Kawasaki ER-6N from Indonesia leads the charge, followed by a custom Buell XB12X Ulysses from Italy. Moto Borgotaro teases us with a stunning 1983 Ducati 600 TT2, and Tamarit proves their mastery of Triumph motorcycles with a menacing Triumph Bobber.

Kawasaki ER-6N by Katros Garage A quick scroll through Katros Garage’s social media channels yields impressive results. Andi Akbar, the workshop’s founder and proprietor, and his team have been pumping out all manner of custom bikes for some years. From choppers to café racers and everything in between, the Indonesian outfit is one of Southeast Asia’s best.

For this custom Kawasaki ER-6N project, Katros Garage teamed up with Ziko, a fellow Indonesian and professional drift racer. Ziko is partial to a nice motorcycle, but this is his first custom bike, so he wanted it to be as easy to ride as possible. With the brief calling for upright ergonomics, chunky rubber, and futuristic style, the group decided on a street tracker build.

Master Stroke: Purpose Built Moto’s svelte Yamaha XS650 chopper

Yamaha XS650 chopper by Purpose Built Moto
They say that perfect is the enemy of good. But when it comes to high-end custom motorcycles, shouldn’t perfection be the goal? Having never built a custom motorcycle in this style before, that’s the standard that Purpose Built Moto set for themselves with this Yamaha XS650 chopper.

Delays with parts and other builds meant this project took the Australian workshop more than 18 months to complete. The silver lining was that this extensive time frame meant they could pore over every detail in the pursuit of perfection.

“There are plenty of Yamaha XS650 chopper builds out there,” says the workshop’s founder, Tom Gilroy, “but there are very few that look well laid out and finished right. Generally, kit frames make the bike look too long and punch the steering angle out too much. We wanted a fast-handling, performance chopper.”

Purpose Built Moto started by stripping the bike down, lopping the rear half of the frame off, and setting the headstock in a jig with a rake of 27 degrees. Then the real work began.

EXIF Picks: Favorites from Bonhams December 2023 Sale

Bonhams December Sale 2023

Bonhams certainly knows how to pick ’em, and there’s some exceptional iron hiding in the 2023 December Sale. It’s an online-only auction with lots closing as soon as December 11th, boasting exceptional classics, landmark sportbikes, parts and memorabilia. The apple of our eye has to be Lot 128, a sweetheart of a 1974 Ducati 750 GT, but we’ll let you be the judge.

Bonhams December Sale 2023
1990 Norton 588 cc F1 Amid tough financial times in the 1980s, Norton was clinging to utilitarian rotary-powered roadsters like the Interpol 2, the Classic and the Commander to weather the coming years. There was a surprising amount of potential hidden in the humble 588 cc twin-rotor Wankel, though, and the engine would eventually form the basis of the British F1-winning RCW588. Never one to waste an opportunity, Norton debuted a street-legal version of RCW in 1989 dubbed the F1.
