No matter how advance and luxurious car you own there is no match to a two wheeler, as daring and rebellious people always prefer to go around the world over a motorcycle. It is because of this very reason, today there are thousands of people across the globe who own a motorcycle. Due to this strong demand, the motorcycle makers are now not only focusing on improving the speed, performance and safety of their bikes, but they are also producing some limited editions models which are extremely expensive. The purpose of producing such expensive models of motorcycle is to cater the niche market that is crazy about collecting unique and lavish items. For such insane buyers we have compiled a list of three most expensive bikes ever built in the world.
Ecosse ES1 Super bike
Ecosse ES1 Super bike is at the top of the list because it requires a whopping $3.6 million amount to buy the motorcycle. For the reason that ES1 Super bike is one of the fastest and lightest motorcycle in the world that can be handled quite easily with its especially designed composite structure and electronic control system. Thanks to the United Kingdom’s F1 engineers who lend a hand to build the speedy bullet. Designers from USA also helped the manufacturer to give the bike a functional design. As far as the engine of the ES1 Super bike is concerned, it incorporates a modified version of IL4 engine that enabled the motorcycle to achieve the top speed of 250 mph during a test drive session. The manufacturer is building ES1 only on order, but you can get a ready made gear to match with the motorcycle from RiderWear.
Harley Davidson Cosmic Starship
Artwork is a way for artist to shows his or her creative skills. Due to this reason we often see various artworks like paintings and sculptures getting sold at extremely high prices in auctions. However, artist Jack Armstrong’s customized Harley Davidson, which has got an exclusive paint job, is not up for sale. The renowned artist given the bike a new name Cosmic Star ship because he has used and exclusive painting style “Cosmic Extensionalism” to mesh up the extreme textures and colors in the motorcycle. As a result of that Armstrong’s Harley has become more of an artwork rather than just a bike and it has made the chopper second most expensive bike in the world with a price tag of $1 million.
Dodge Tomahawk V10 Super bike
The third most expensive bike on the chart is Dodge’s Tomahawk V10 Super bike, as it will cost you $555,000. Although, the V10 Super bike has got an unusual design, but when you will cruise on it, you will instantly realize that there is a speed demon under you. This can also be judged from the fact that manufacturer has incorporated the gigantic 8.3 liter V10 engine of the Dodge Viper in the super bike to give it the required thrust. As a result, Dodge Tomahawk manages to produce 500 horsepower and attain a top speed of 420 mph by achieving 62 mph speed in just 2.6 seconds. Above all, to give the super bike more stability Dodge has incorporated two wheels on both sides.
