The World's Most Expensive Bikes: ₦1 Billion For A Motorbike? by TedKing: 8:32am On May 31, 2019
Almost all the world's most expensive bikes were made in limited units! Check out 8 of the most priciest ones with their pictures and prepare to be jaw-dropped!
Many Nigerians think bikes are for "agberos" (motor park louts) or those who can't afford a car. But it's worthy to note that there are some bikes that are actually more expensive than most luxury cars you have ever come across. The bikes you see everyday at motor parks and on the street are the low budget ones, and they go for between 200,000 to 400,000 naira. But the power bikes owned by popular Nigerian celebrity, Charley Boy, and the likes, cost a lot more.

These luxury power bikes come with a lot more weight, horsepower, torque and better performance than the regular. Therefore, if you're a fan of bikes and have been looking to have a luxury collection, here are some of the world's most expensive bikes that might tickle your fancy, collected by Naijauto.com!

1. Icon Sheene - ₦57 million

When Barry Sheene, legendary bike racer from Britain, died, his personal designer and engineers along with family and friends built 52 custom fit bikes in his honour. The brand model was named the icon Sheene. The bike was made to have a 1400 cc supercharged engine that puts out 133 pound of torque and 250 horsepower. It was partly built in line with Barry Sheene's favorite race bike. Each unit of the bike is worth 57 million naira, and was sold out not long after launch.

2. MTT Turbine Street fighter - ₦63 million

Hollywood celebrity, Jay Leno and a couple others wanted a power bike that can shut up Harley Davidson and Ducatti riders - who feel only their bikes are worthy of being on the road. At a time when Harley Davidson bikes were kings of roads, the MTT Turbine Street fighter was launched.

First, it came with gas turbine Rolls Royce Allison engine with a 320 HP output. But later upgraded to a 2-speed transmission engine that puts out a hundred more horsepower than the previous. It's so fast that it can get up to 227 miles per hour when at top speed. It's worth 63 million naira.

3. The Milona 16 - ₦90 million

One of Italy's finest auto tuning specialists, NCR, wanted to manufacture a limited edition super bike that can compete with the likes of the Ducatti. They came up with Milona 16 - popularly known as the NCR M16. It was built to weigh not more than 320 pounds. Materials like aircraft grade aluminum, carbon fiber and titanium were used to make the bike really light. It's believed to be a somewhat better bike as compared to the Ducatti Desmosedici MotoGP bike.

It's worth quarter of a million dollars - which is 90 million naira.
