As we step into spring, dust off the cobwebs and open our garages, Catawiki and Deus Ex Machina have announced that they are joining forces for a second time for an exclusive online auction.
Deus Ex Machina, renowned for their expertly-crafted custom parts and hand-built motorcycles, have only made their unique creations available on an auction once before, also through Catawiki. The custom bikes in the upcoming auction, each completely unique and recently crafted in the Milano workshop, can typically only be ordered privately and so this online auction, only on Catawiki, is an exceptionally rare moment. For the first time, the custom bikes are joined by vintage bikes from the Deus garage, these classics are owned and used on a regular basis by Deus Ex Machina partners: who are not only entrepreneurs but also riders, bike enthusiasts or collectors.
Launching on Friday 22 March, the auction features 18 bikes, eight of which are Deus Customs and four of those are available without a reserve price. Of the custom bikes, the auction includes a custom Fantic Caballero 500, “Deus Fuoristrada”estimated between €10,000 – €12,000 euro with no reserve price. Works carried out in the Deus workshop in Milano include, swingarm modification and new FTX suspension, custom vintage style saddle in handmade eco-leather and a 70s rubber licence plate holder. Another bike without a reserve is “The Deus Milano Street Tracker”, a 1983 Yamaha SR500 estimated at 8,000 – 10,000 euros. The addition of an Ohlins rear shock absorber, 19′ Excel rims and a UFO headlight mask are amongst recent Deus adaptations.
Alessandro Rossi, Deus Ex Machina Director said, “We’re kick starting spring with enthusiasm. All of the bikes in this auction are incredibly special and unique and there is a history behind each one. I want to emphasise the fact that these bikes are not only collectable but are ready to be used and we are excited to welcome them to this auction.”
The Catawiki and Deus Ex Machina auction takes place just a few days after the beginning of spring, marking the perfect time for motorcycle enthusiasts to reopen and even add to their own garages as the weather warms up. Last August Catawiki saw a 60% rise in motorcycle sales on the platform compared to the previous year, and this auction gives fans the chance to get ahead of the summer rush.
Catawiki Senior Motorcycle Expert Davide Marelli said, “This is not only an auction but a celebration of a lifestyle. With Deus Ex Machina, we are bringing their cutting-edge design and street-honest industrial art to Catawiki’s passionate global community of motorcycle enthusiasts, just in time for these bikes to hit the roads over the summer months.”
The auction builds on the success of the inaugural 2022 collaboration which saw the sale of a Swank Rally XSR, a Yamaha XSR700and a Yamaha Teneré, which went for €24,000 and €22,000 respectively.
This exclusive auction is live from 22 March 8 PM CET – 2 April 8 PM CET exclusively on Catawiki.

About Deus Ex Machina
Deus Ex Machina is a step bigger than a brand: it’s a culture. Its openness and enthusiasm strike a chord with people, wherever they are. Deus (“day-us”) didn’t set out only to sell custom parts and hand-built motorcycles, but to celebrate a culture of creativity in its apparel collection, stores and cafe.
The Deus philosophy recalls an era before the various pursuits of fun – motorcycling, surfing, skateboarding, whatever – were marketed into fundamentalist factions. All are welcomed under the Deus roof, where there’s simply respect for the honesty and enjoyment of the machine. Inclusiveness, authenticity, enthusiasm. It’s a simple and sincere pitch that has winged Deus Ex Machina across the world. Deus Ex Machina says simply there’s no ‘right way’ to do individualism, it’s all the same juice. Currently, there are 14 Deus flagships worldwide: SYDNEY | BALI | L.A. | MILAN | TOKYO | BIARRITZ | IBIZA | AMSTERDAM | CAPE TOWN | BERLIN | SEOUL | SAO PAULO | BORDEAUX | BOSCOMBE. Each with its unique feel and style but the one thing that remains the same is the culture that Deus instils.
