HIGHLIGHTS
- Classic Café Racer looks
- Very low mileage
- Superb condition
THE APPEAL
Inspired by the 50s and 60s Café Racer style, the Triumph Thruxton 900 is a modern take on a true classic. Featuring fuel injection cleverly hidden within the authentic-looking carburettors, the Thruxton gives reliability and performance whilst still looking like a retro racer.
This lovely example has been with the vendor since 2011, and he has only covered around 100 miles in the past 12 years. Whilst not in use, it has remained as part of his collection in a temperature-controlled garage with some other classic cars and bikes. Now is the time to sell the Thruxton 900 to let someone have the pleasure of riding the modern classic Café Racer style Triumph, which gives an authentic retro experience that doesn’t disappoint.

Auctions are extended by 3-minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
- If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
- If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.

- We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

|---|---|
| £0 to £10,000 | £100.00 |
| £10,000 to £50,000 | £250.00 |

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you’re able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
