Is this the world’s most expensive bike?

  1. Yep, one MILLION dollars. That's £649,169. For a motorbike frame. That looks like it's been in the sea for a few decades.

    Obviously, to qualify as a motorbike there are other requirements beyond the frame. Like an engine. In this case, it's a 125hp, 1.8-litre V-Twin with a six-speed gearbox that's pushing along 315 kilos of gold.

    So who on earth built it? A motorbikeist called Tarhan Telli, who runs TT Custom Choppers, put it together before approaching the Guinness Book of World Records to have ‘Medusa' certified as the world's most expensive motorbike.
