World’s Most Expensive Motorcycles
Written by: tom Filed Under: Vehicles, World on April 19th, 2007Motorcycles have had mass appeal to the general public for roughly a century and a half. An American named Sylvester Howard Roper designed one of the first motorcycles in the 1860s. The motorcycle was displayed at fairs and circuses around the eastern U.S.. Europeans also had their hand in popularizing motorcycles and during the World Wars, motorcycles functioned as a quick means of transportation.
As the motorcycle progressed, the engines and frames became bigger, sleeker, faster and more powerful, resulting in the high-tech and expensive motorcycles of today. If you can afford one, a custom motorcycle built to your exact specifications is within reach.
Currently, the most expensive motorcycles in production are fetching in between $100,000 and $200,000 US. While researching expensive motorcycles, we found 4 bikes that dominate all others in performance, appearance…and cost.
The fourth most expensive motorcycle we found is the new MV Agusta F4 CC created by Claudio Castiglioni, the motorcycle company’s director. He wanted to create a spectacular motorcycle that met strategic marketing needs while also being something truly special and unique. The expensive motorcycle bearing his very own initials “CC” has a top speed of 315 kph (195 mph), 1078 cc’s and a 198 hp engine. Each bike will boast a platinum plate located near the top of the steering column showing the model number from 1 to 100, making this motorcycle all the more special to its owners. This Italian dream costs 100,000 Euros ($133,745US).

Next on our list is the MTT Turbine Superbike costing $150,000 (111,000 Euros). Not only is this motorcycle expensive, its also extremely fast. The Superbike is the Guinness World Record holder for the “Most Powerful Motorcycle Ever to Enter Series Production”. The turbine engine in this one is made by Rolls Royce and is capable of over 300hp. The motorcycle also boasts carbon fiber fairings, a rear mounted camera with LCD color display, forward-and rear-looking radar detector with laser scrambler, one touch “Smart Start” ignition, and many other cool gadgets. This bike seams to be pretty popular in Hollywood. It starred in the movie “Torque” and even Jay Leno owns one!

The Macchia Nera Concept Bike is near the top of the list of most expensive motorcycles at 150,000 Euros ($201,000). Built around a Ducati 998RS engine, its Italian designers and engineers set out to create an extremely high tech and expensive motorcycle that would be thought of as “the ultimate track bike” that is “simply beautiful and beautifully simple”. The Testastretta engine is fitted with lightweight metals and alloys like titanium and aluminum making it very lightweight. The view from the side of the Macchia Nera shows exposed belts and engine components, giving its design a minimalist feel while still being aesthetically pleasing. We should add that this bike is a one of a kind and not in produced for retail at this point, but if you have an extra 150,000 Euros ($201,000) laying around for an expensive toy, your dream might come true.

The most expensive motorcycle in production will cost you at least $250,000. The production is limited to a few hundred models, so you better place your order. The Dodge Tomahawk V10 superbike boasts 8.3 liter engine (505 cubic inch), and the 10 cylinders can bring the bike to a maximum speed of almost 400 mph. The 1500lb bike has an independent 4 wheel suspension and can reach 60 mph in around 2.5 seconds.

ahoi yuayayaya nice bikes.. but hayabusa is the best
:D:D
All great bikes but you forget to include custom built one off original bikes from custom builders that are the same money if not more and are true one of a kind collectibles.
beautiful motorcycles, i like it, but highly expensive
I appreciate the people who discovered TOMAHAWK .One day i am gonna buy TOMAHAWK..would someone like to give money to buy this beautiful bike.
The Dodge Tomahawk is not a motorcycle. Motorcycles do not have 4 wheels. The Tomahawk is a glorified ATV.
the mvagusta is the best bike of the lot and is probably the sexiest bike in the world also
I really like the bikes here but it seems it would be a dream to have one.
my dad has the dodge and it can only go 20 miles before you need to fill the tank
The MV Agusta F4 CC is off the hook, but my R6s is faster.
Ya dude ur R6 isn’t faster then that MV. I have an 05 MV F4 and I wipe my ass with other liter bikes.
waahhhh..these bikes are so cool…but my honda wave is cooler..not so expensive but has 200hp…..
i like those bikes but dude in terms of speed and cost, my SYM is on top…..this bike are only for ugly people….nyhahahaha
Is the dodge tomahawk real ???
Cos’ i cant believe my eyes
That turbine bike makes the neatest sounds during the start sequence. Go to Jaylenosgarage.com and listen.
If it’s got 4 wheels, it’s not a motorcycle; but it is a cool machine!
YOU FORGOT TO INCLUDE “DUCATTI 749 & 999″ DUDE.
can a bike with the speed of dodge tomahawk run on this earth?it can only be run in the outer universe.
I absolutely adore those motorbike, but because of the price….. it make me feel…. hah…. i have to try all my best with my work, so i can afford it……
Hi guys! Look at this site, please… There is a new version of MV F4: total gold covered! Wonderful! What’s you thing about it? Bye bye from Italy

I wish that i will buy on of these bikes in future.
I’d love to feel the power of a V10″ motorcycle rumbling beneath me!!!!
dude i own two tomahawk v10;s and a mtt turbine there mad hard to take care of and i already crashed my third tomahawk.
that is the sickest bike iv ever seen it blew my mind
i didn’t ever seen ugliest bike like Dodge Tomahawk V10 R6 Gona rock…
the tomahawk is like a gun. you point it and pull the trigger.
Nicccccceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Im sure liking that MTT Turbine Superbike I just was on my motorcycle meeting with this crew of people and man they were nice but m liking this one thoough I might buy me a $100,000 bike I might will that will be soooooooooooo koollllllllll
I would rather have A Britton than all four of these!
10 made – over 250,000 if you can convince an owner to sell one to you!
talking about the dodge tomahark, it is so bad that i wish i can have one for my self.it is soooooooo bad.
i got only 2 of those bikes all i need is the one at the very top
. . .,dude!!!!…,the MV F4 cc agusta is cool and simple,
but the turbine is way cooler !!!,than the tomahawk!!!
……sure it has a ,V10 engine but is it usable in the streeTZ!!!!!!!!,,.,.,.,.,,.,.,.,.,
Interesting site, that 4th most expensive bike is nice looking but my 2000 Kawasaki Ninja 1200 cc has 202 HP and tested in 320 Km/hr.
and costs around 10K. 0 – 60 MPH in 2 sec. If you put turbo on it you get extra 100 HP and that will be a rocket that would cost about 12K. And that is a quite a bit more fun for that price than paying from 150K – 300K for practically the same performance.
I would like some one to give me this bike and i will show them how realy how to ride it with pride.
I agree with the others. Motorcycles don’t have 4 wheels, nor do they weigh 1,500 lbs! What did Dodge expect to accomplish by making it other than help Chrysler go broke faster? As for the other bikes, they’re over-priced toys for the super-rich. All of them would be torture to ride on a daily basis. I’ll keep my GS 500, thank you. It’s everything I think a motorcycle should be. It’s reliable, economical, a joy to ride, great handling, comfortable, and it looks good too.
wow, the MTT TURBINE SUPERBIKE is realy cool, itis my dream
i will have too get it someday itllprobably have about 5 mpg by the time i get it but it might be work it, ven if i drive it once and almost kill my self.
i dont care seriously all i need is the new 09 yz 450 f ….. keeping it simple and keeping it dirt !!!
my big bro has a tomahawk,not so good,dont waste your money in it.
ooooooooooo it a cool bike but it sooooooo expensive
id like too see the dodge bike race a Bugatti Veyron! now that would be a race!

Dodge Tomahawk uses the late Viper’s 8.0 liter engine. I rather drive my li’l nephew’s bicycle.

i wish to have one
i have already this bike Mr bond
i really liked (Macchia Nera Concept Bike) i love the bikes whose engines are open.

i like all fast bike
i like this bike
Motorcycles are a means of transportation. They should not be made to show off how much income we recieve.
Agusta and Macchia Nera seems to be a motor bike that we can use on road, the other two look like an alian for me…!!!!
The other 2 can be driven on tracks and for records, but are not for use in normal occations…
Cheers

so cool
they suck i mean seriously if anything looks more fake then tht tomahawk then ill empty my entire bank account gambling !
The most exquisite motorcycle i’ve ever seen. What to do with all these v10 8 liter engine blocks? I know!!! Let´s make a huge bike with huge engine and huge performance!
Response to Lucas:
An ATV vehicle can go to the jungle and come out with a brand new paint job.
Try to cross a speed bump with this bike without being spit from the seet!
The only defect this bike has ( besides the price ) is that is not street legal. Wanna buy it? Better have a private track. Else you can’t take it to the streets…
Cheers!
i love engine
This bike is super fast but awkward looking. There is absolutely no point in doing those kinds of speeds unless your intereted in committing “hurry curry” no one can stop abruptly doing roughly 600-700 kilometres an hour without seriously impairing their pancreas.
oh dude this is an awesome bike
who put a picture of my brothers motorcycle on here
i cant belive it…………………..its just amazing………………what can i say about agusta,the bike is just wonderful
