The worlds most expensive motorcycle.

I wonder if it actually reaches the expected price.

This is not my idea of a good investment:

For that kind of money, you could buy a new house with a stable of 'NEW' motorcycles for every occasion :yes:

I agree, but i suppose if you have the money you may as well buy whatever you want.:yes:

If you go by the price paid for the one in 2000, and if (big if) they realise the expected price at auction, it has approximately tripled in value in just over 10 years, not too bad a return, but of course always rather risky.

$750,000 - that includes paying a guy to clean the floor daily and wipe away the oil leaks.

Not bad.

pile of junk

An iconic Husqvarna 400 Cross, which belonged to Hollywood star Steve McQueen was sold by auction in Carmel, California on 14 May. Bonhams sold the legendary actor’s 1971 Husqvarna 400 Cross motorcycle – a machine identical to the one he famously rode shirtless on the cover of Sports Illustrated – for a new world record at an estimate-shattering price of $144,500.

there was one a Puke a few years back....its rare because Superchargers were banned after " the difference of opinion" to try and keep up with BMW who won the 1939 TT.
Really more of an oddity and racing dead end.
Goes to show there are people out there with more money than sense....
I'd rather have the BMW
