Compass Auctions and Real Estate announced that the Auction Firm has been selected to host both the online and live auction of a one-off custom KTM 450 in cooperation with RedBull Media House to benefit the Kurt Caselli Foundation.
“This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a unique piece of history,” said Steven Holt, vice president of Compass. “It is truly an honor not only to conduct the auction, but to work to benefit such a great organization."
This exclusive build of motocross history was completed by Roland Sands. The design was inspired by the original documentary "On Any Sunday" released in 1971. This motorcycle is a blend of motocross history with a 2015 KTM 450.
This tribute to Kurt Caselli, his love for motocross and people will be debuted during the preview of "On Any Sunday - The Next Chapter" on Oct. 22 in Hollywood, Ca. This film has been produced in cooperation with RedBull Media House, Freeride Entertainment, and supported by KTM and Skullcandy.
Compass Auctions and Real Estate is providing the platform for the online auction currently taking place. Mr. Holt will auction off the custom bike live at the Red Bull Day in the Dirt event on Nov. 29 at Glen Helen Raceway in California.
One hundred percent of the proceeds from the auction will be donated to The Kurt Caselli Foundation to help protect the lives of off-road riders.
The Kurt Caselli Foundation was established in 2013. The focus of the foundation is the safety of riders and racers in the off-road motorcycling industry. "He just did it for the love, the sheer love of it," commented Mr. Sands referring to Kurt Caselli. "It's guys like that, that really make motorcycling what it is."
