At BikeDekho, we usually focus on sensible things—mileage, practicality, safety, and which bike gives you the most bang for your buck. But sometimes, we can’t resist stepping into the world of pure extravagance, where logic takes the back seat and motorcycles cost more than posh apartments in Mumbai.
So, for today’s ride into madness, let’s look at five of the most outrageously expensive bikes in the world.
5. Ducati Superleggera V4 – ₹98.5 lakh (approx.)
Few bikes capture the imagination like a Ducati, and the Superleggera V4 takes things to another level. Limited to just 500 units worldwide, it’s not just a superbike—it’s a collector’s dream.
Weighing only 159kg (or as low as 152.2kg with the race kit), this exotic Italian machine makes a staggering 224PS in stock form, which can be bumped up to 234PS with an Akrapovič exhaust. To put that in perspective, it weighs about the same as a Yamaha R15 V4 but produces nearly 13 times the power!
At about USD 1,12,000 (₹98.5 lakh), it’s already sold out, and in the second-hand market, prices can easily double. Your best bet? Maybe settle for a scale model for your living room shelf.
4. Arc Vector – ₹1.31 crore (approx.)
The Arc Vector was one of the boldest electric superbikes ever created. Priced at around GBP 1,10,000 (₹1.31 crore), it was an engineering marvel featuring hub steering, extensive carbon fibre construction, and futuristic design language.
Unfortunately, Arc Motorcycles shut down in early 2024, making the Vector an unattainable dream. Even if you had the money, owning one now is nearly impossible—but its legend still sparks conversations among enthusiasts.
3. Combat Motors Wraith – ₹1.36 crore (approx.)
The Combat Wraith is a motorcycle that looks like it’s been designed straight out of a sci-fi film. With just 21 units ever built, exclusivity is guaranteed.
Its raw, unfaired look proudly shows off a massive 2,163cc V-twin engine, while two different sets of footpegs let you either relax on a cruise or attack corners aggressively. With a price tag of USD 1,55,000 (₹1.36 crore), the Wraith is as much a piece of mechanical art as it is a motorcycle.
2. Brough Superior x Aston Martin AMB 001 Pro – ₹1.61 crore (approx.)
When Brough Superior teamed up with Aston Martin, the result was the breathtaking AMB 001 Pro. With just 88 units produced, each one priced at around USD 1,83,895 (₹1.61 crore), this bike is rarer than many supercars.
Powered by a 225PS V-twin engine, it reportedly boasts a power-to-weight ratio even better than a Formula 1 car. Its design, meanwhile, makes you feel like Bruce Wayne gearing up for Gotham’s streets—if Batman ever went British, this would be his ride.
1. MTT 420RR Turbine Superbike – ₹2.42 crore (approx.)
If you thought superbikes couldn’t get crazier, meet the MTT 420RR. Built by Marine Turbine Technologies, this motorcycle is powered by nothing less than a Rolls Royce Allison C250 helicopter engine. Yes, an actual jet turbine!
Producing 420PS and a mind-bending 678Nm, it’s electronically limited to 439kmph—but without that limiter, experts believe it could easily break the 500kmph barrier. Priced at around USD 2,75,000 (₹2.42 crore), it costs as much as a luxury flat in Mumbai.
But hey, while a house gives you comfort, this gives you bragging rights to ride what’s basically a flying machine on wheels.
Final Thoughts
For most of us, these motorcycles will remain untouchable dreams, parked in the garages of billionaires and collectors. But that’s the beauty of bikes—they ignite passion, spark imagination, and remind us that the line between engineering and art is sometimes blurred.
Would you pick horsepower or real estate if you had that kind of money?
