Most Expensive Motorcycles in the World
posted by: Gretchen
Motorcycles are very appealing to the public, especially to men. We owe Sylvester Howard Roper the first motorcycles in the 1860s. He was an American who designed one of the first motorcycles. The motorcycle was displayed at fairs and circuses and then became quick means of transportation especially during the World Wars. Eventually, motorcycles were improved and became bigger and more powerful. Today, we even have customized motorcycles to meet your specifications.
But did you know the most expensive motorcycle in the world? According to a news article, the House of Thunder, custom bike builders, have built a motorcycle based on a stock Harley Rocker which comes with its own garage, a 45 meter transoceanic yacht which was built by Sunrise Yachts founded by German Harley-Davidson and Herbert Baurn. Its price is $22.66 million. That makes it the most expensive motorcycle. It features a foldable handlebar allowing the bike to be lifted in and out of parking position.
