1978 Agusta 750S America 789cc with only 42 miles from new kept for 40 years in storage £50,000 – £70,000
This Agusta is part of a fabulous collection of Augustas that Mark Bryan has discovered. He says: ”It comes from one of the best collections of Agusta’s it has been my privilege to see.”
Built from 1976 to 1979 and based on the iconic 750S the America was bored out to 789cc and had a claimed top speed of 135mph. It was described by Bike magazine as “One of the most dramatic looking bikes ever made.”
This correct numbers and very low mileage example is presented in very original condition. The original owner in the USA bought it new in 1978 and shipped it to California, and used it for 41 miles and then stored it away for 40 years.
Part of a private collection and due to long term storage it may require some recommissioning before road use. Very collectable and highly sought after. Complete with California title.
