1973 Ossa Six Day Replica sold for $8,800 at the 2019 Mecum Las Vegas Motorcycle Auction
imagine walking into a motorcycle dealer and this bike is parked next to a new 2019 on/off road bike of similar displacement. now compare the price tags. then ask yourself which bike you think you would buy. I realize the Ossa would be a bike you would ride gently with great care to preserve it's valued beauty and condition while a 2019 bike would serve the purpose of regular duty. $8800 is a steal if you ask me. I would throw all my bikes in a concrete truck and let it spin for a couple hours, to have that Ossa.
Wow - what a beauty!! Amazing restoration. I did walk into a MX shop and was stunned by this baby. wish I had not gotten rid of my 73 Ossa SDR about 15 years later. It rode and raced much better than I could back in the day. Anyone with a slightly less price that I could vintage ride - pl email me. THX! Bill S.
