A 1929 Brough Superior has set a new record price for a motorcycle, as it sold for £286,000 (NZ$597,200) at a specialist auction held by auctioneers H&H.
The Brough – a spring frame SS100, 1000cc v-twin - beat the previous record set by a 1915 Cyclone board track racer, which sold for $551,200 in July 2008. At that time, Sterling was worth $1.98, making the Sterling value £278,400.
