Founded in 1944 in Barcelona, Spain by Pedro Permanyer and Francisco Xavier “Paco” Bultó (future founder of Bultaco), Montessa began mass producing its A-45 model in 1945. By the time the late 1950s rolled around, the company was finding success in racing specifically with their 100cc and 125cc models.
The Cappra was sold in a variety of sizes from 1967 to 1982, with the largest engine being the 414 released in 1979-80. The four-speed produced approximately 44hp at 7,500 RPM with a reported 242lb dry weight.
This example is VIN: 14399. Engine: 66M0697. The seller acquired it one year ago from an auction.
There is no odometer, true mileage is unknown. The seller has not ridden it – the first time he started it was in the video up top.
Maintenance:
The seller has not done any maintenance. Mechanical condition is “unknown, other that it started and ran. Looks like a combination of restoration and original.”

Currently located in Edgewater, Florida, this Montesa is offered on a Bill of Sale only. Have any Cappra stories or questions about this listing? Let us know in the “Comments” tab!
Please Note:
Florida law requires the payment of sales tax from all persons making purchases from businesses in Florida. This includes out of state residents purchasing motor vehicles in Florida from motor vehicle dealers.
There are two exceptions: (1) purchases made by licensed resellers/dealers with copies of the dealer’s license and tax certificate provided to us at the time of sale, or (2) where we consign and ship the motorcycle to the buyer (i.e interstate commerce). Dealer purchases will be reassigned to the named licensed dealer and not to any personal account.
In most cases and pursuant to existing interstate agreements, purchaser will receive credit for any taxes paid to Florida. For more information please see this Tax Information Publication (TIP) from the Florida Department of Revenue.
Florida further allows tax abatement, i.e. a reduced tax rate, where the purchaser completes Form DR-123 and provides a notarized copy of the same to the seller at the time of sale. In such cases, the tax may be reduced to the lesser of the Florida rate or the rate in the buyer’s home state, whichever is less.
We therefore will be collecting the Florida sales tax of 6% on all purchases except those by licensed dealers having provided current copies of the dealer license and tax resale certificate to us at time of sale, or on products shipped by us to the buyer in the buyer’s home state. We will apply or refund any tax abatement applicable for persons who have provided the completed Form DR-123 at time of sale. The abatement will be processed along with the paper and title work after the sale. Florida residents may further be subject to their county surtax, where applicable. This applies only to select counties where you might live, generally 0.5 to 1%.
We will process Florida title/tag for Florida residents or persons titling said vehicles for street use in Florida. This typically runs about $150-160 in Florida charges + sales tax for title transfers and registration of street bikes, less for OHV vehicles where customers require OHV titles and green stickers. We never charge extra dealer or bogus document fees.
We must strictly adhere to these policies. Feel free to call Bullpen Cycles [484-788-9550] with your questions. We’ll do our best to help.
