The limited collection consisted of 10 pieces. This exquisite bike cannot be found on the street and, of course, it is not available to every wealthy lover of beautiful motorcycles.
The producing company does not seek to make its brainchild more accessible - after all, their masterpiece can only be appreciated by an expert in this field. The unit has a powerful engine (225 horsepower, 2.4 l). Weight – 192 kg. Pretty easy, isn't it?
British Vintage Black
The British Vintage Black model is valued, first of all, not due to its characteristics, but due to its antiquity and rich history. This is a classic in almost its original form. It will be appreciated by both collectors and owners of tuning workshops.
The cost of such a bike is 400 – 600 thousand conventional units .
Dodge Tomahawk
Look at this powerful handsome man. This option is clearly not for the faint of heart. Approximately $100,000,000 was spent on designing the Dodge Tomahawk. The fastest motorcycle, each copy was assembled by hand. Price – $550,000 or about 39,483,100 rubles.

But on sports tracks and specialized areas he can show all his strength. Take a look at this giant, it looks impressive and presentable.
Ecosse Spirit model ES 1
Our projects: Crazy Tourist No Secret Magazine | VKontakte | Facebook | Odnoklassniki | Twitter
together with Formula 1, she created the Ecosse Spirit ES 1 model, which is currently considered the most expensive in the world. The bike is “charged” to the maximum. Due to ergonomics and advanced technologies, it has minimal air resistance. The main electronic installation is responsible for the operation of other systems.
The model weighs 120 kg. It is equipped with a V-engine with a capacity of 200 horsepower. Torque is 190 Nm. Due to its power, the bike is quite capable of accelerating to 400 kilometers per hour. One of the features of the body is that the biker’s legs are not visible when riding.
The price of the motorcycle is impressive, as is its contents - $3,600,000 . However, after the presentation of a limited edition of 10 bikes, buyers were immediately found. All ten Ecosse Spirit ES1 motorcycles were purchased.
Harley Davidson Cosmic Starship
The Harley Davidson brand is well-known by a large number of people, and its creations constantly find their way into one or another top list. Cosmic Starship rightfully takes sixth place on our list due to its “cosmic” price.
Partly, this price tag was due to the fact that the famous American artist, Jack Armstrong, worked on tuning the bike. Cost – $1,500,000 or 107,531,000 rubles.
He applied an intricate design to the surface of the motorcycle, which he secured with 37 layers of clear varnish. In addition to gold paint, Harley received unusual bows on the body. Cosmic Starship does not have any outstanding technical characteristics.
The buyer pays only for the uniqueness and prestige of the model. It would seem that there is nothing special in appearance; moreover, not all ordinary people will like the design of the product. But truly rich collectors are willing to shell out a lot of money for an exclusive.
This motorcycle was placed in the show-room of an official dealer in Los Angeles. The public premiere was attended by media personalities, celebrities and politicians. An inscription was installed near the bike, which prohibited anyone except Lady Gaga and Sylvester Stallone from touching the exhibit.
BMS Nehmesis
A model with a truly intricate and unusual design. When looking at this example, I want to ask, “How can you even drive it?” This elegant unit is designed to resemble a fast and maneuverable insect. Cost – $3,000,000 or approximately 214,792,200 rubles.
Leading Japanese engineers created this car over the course of 14 years. The head of Yamaha considers his creation a masterpiece. The frame is made of high quality gold. About $50,000 was spent on finishing the wheels and body with chrome and gold.
Under the gas tank there is a turbo engine consisting of two compartments with a volume of 1.6 liters. I do not recommend driving this fancy unit on public roads for safety reasons.
Yamaha Roadstar BMS
The Yamaha Roadstar BMS model was remembered by the public as the “Golden Chopper” due to the presence of real gold in the body. This is a collector's model and is not intended for mass production.
Another highlight of the bike is that the front wheel is mounted on only one side. The “fork” can be tilted due to pneumatic shock absorbers. In addition, the bike is equipped with an automatic clutch that operates when changing gears.
The gas tank includes 2 compartments - one for fuel and the other for electronic mechanisms. The battery is hidden in the body part.
The price of the “Golden Chopper” is also gold – it is 500 000$.
Hildebrand & Wolfmuller
The fourth place is occupied by a rare and very elegant model, which was designed at the beginning of the last century. Look at the lightness and sophistication of the forms in the design of this piece. Cost – $3,500,000 or 250,590,900 rubles.
Due to the age of its development, it does not fit into the modern idea of what a bike should look like. However, in essence, in terms of design and purpose, this is exactly a motorcycle.
It is now in the possession of an American collector. At one time it was released in a limited edition (only 800 units). Wolfmüller has a four-stroke one and a half liter engine with two cylinders, producing max 2.5 hp, water cooling.
The motorcycle can “squeeze” 48 km/h. Beautiful, expensive and tasteful! What true connoisseurs of beauty need.
AJS Porcupine 1954
The high-speed motorbike is called “Porcupine”, because it has spikes on its parts for cooling. The model was made by craftsmen from Britain.
It was on this model that the famous racer Leslie Graham won the world championship in 1949. The model was not mass produced, as it was intended for racing competitions.
Today the price of the motorcycle is 750 000$.
Ecosse ES1 Spirit
This exhibit differs from other representatives of our rating in its sporty design and, in general, unusual appearance, which, nevertheless, looks quite decent. Developed together with Formula 1 specialists. Cost – $3,600,000 million or 257,750,640 rubles.
A limited edition of ten pieces was created. These models were available only to the richest people. By the way, people planning to buy a bike could personally participate in the design of the model.
The motorcycle has a fairly sophisticated and advanced device. Weight with full equipment - 120 kg, 200-horsepower engine, maximum speed - 402 km/h.
Top bikes - what are they?
The most expensive bikes in the world cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. This price is understandable (although it is unaffordable for most bikers). Among the leading motorcycles there are custom ones - machines that are produced according to a client’s order in a single or extremely limited number of copies. Manufacturers of such exclusive products modify the production model, completely adapting it to the needs of the owner.
Another category of super expensive bikes are concepts, that is, prototypes created by designers specifically to show the possible future of two-wheeled vehicles.
Neiman Marcus Limited Edition Fighter
Our parade ends with the most expensive motorcycle unit in the world. It was released during the Second World War, and since then it has only increased in price. Cost – $11,000,000 or approximately 787,571,400 rubles.
Collectors are ready to pay incredible amounts of money to take possession of a rare creation of engineering. As part of the limited edition, 50 units were produced, 45 went on sale.
The weight of the bike with full equipment is 195 kilograms. Engine displacement is 2 liters. Can reach speeds of up to 300 kilometers per hour. It has its own unique, recognizable design, which is currently the subject of ongoing controversy in society.
But still, most connoisseurs recognize it as refined and elegant. Indeed, the aesthetics of this product are quite pleasant and attractive. Such a discreet yet luxurious classic.
Hubless custom Harley-Davidson
Harley-Davidson, released, became a repeated winner in many motorcycle competitions. It was also loved by many fans of two-wheelers. It not only has a remarkable design, but also allows the motorcyclist to move with the breeze - up to 160 kilometers per hour. The bike took 4,000 hours to create.
Its value today is $150,000 .
