This custom-made Lauge Jensen is perhaps worth its weight, at a monumental GBP535,000 (US $893,000).
The Danish manufacturer, unveiled the gold-plated bike at the Hamburg Motorcycle Days expo and claims the ‘world’s most expensive’ status.
A 195 Cyclone Board Track Racer previously held the top-spot, after being valued at $521,000 in 2008, according to Forbes. However, a Vincent Black Shadow, the 1948 world-speed record holder, sold for $1.1 million in 2011 – though not at auction.
Lauge Jensen recently launched in Denmark, building custom motorcycles that begin retailing from $90,000.
