They owe the fastest machine, the sleekest body and the highest price. Dodge Tomahawk Concept Motorcycle is the world's most expensive bike. Y2K Turbine Superbike stands on the second in the list. Read to know what makes them unique in their concept, drive and style.

Dodge Tomahawk Concept Motorcycle
MSRP $250,000

Dodge Tomahawk is an erotica machine for the power freak The Dodge is carved into an unusual design, featuring the 500 hp (373 kW) 8.3 L V10 engine from the Dodge Viper. It has two front wheels (separated by a few inches) and two rear wheels to help in turning and stabalising the machine at the highest rate of speed. Some of its unique features that titles it outstanding are,
  • Turb0-cylinder 90-degree V-type, liquid-cooled, 8275 cc
  • 356-T6 aluminum alloy block with cast-iron liners, aluminum alloy cylinder heads
  • Bore x Stroke: 4.03 by 3.96 in (102 x 101 mm)
  • Sequential, multi-port electronic fuel injection with individual runners
  • Compression Ratio: 9.6:1
  • Its dimension include: Length- 102 inches, Width- 27.7 inches, Height- 36.9 inches, Wheelbase- 76 inches, Seat Height- 29 inches, Weight- 1,500 lbs., Track, Front- 8.75 in, Track, Rear- 10 in, Weight Dist-49F/51R, Ground Clearance- 3 in, Fuel- 3.25 gallons.
  • Recent reports states it tops the speed of 676 km/h, however the speed estimated do not account for wind resistance. They are just the gearing estimates only. It is very unlikely that anyone will ever test the ride due to safety concerns. This motorcycle cannot be legally driven on public roads, it is just meant to be a rolling sculpture.
  • All that power won't come cheap. Nine replicas of Dodge Tomahawk was sold through Neiman Marcus (retail department store), for up to $555,000 each. Dodge Tomahawk was shown on 'Ride with Funkmaster Flex '(a TV show) in the New York Auto Show.

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!

Speed is the most addicted drug which many macho men wear as a tag on their brave hearts would love to try these bikes. However, it's just the start! As the years roll by we will soon be seeing bikes that fly double the speed. The only thing what these men have to do now, is to fill their castle with dollars.

Motorcycles 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.











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).


MV Agusta F4 CC
MSRP $17,999
The Aprilia Factory RSV makes the MV look as insanely expensive as it actually is, but at 18K, that’s still a fair chunk of change compared to the competition – you can buy a GSXR-1000 and still have enough money left over to appease the spouse. The RSV has an extremely impressive spec sheet and pedigree, but in this class, it’s just too cheap. Fully adjustable front and rear Ohlins suspension, Ohlins steering damper, Brembo radial mount brakes and forged magnesium wheels make this a serious performance animal. Maybe if they gold plated it or something? It’s a nice looking bike though and universally acclaimed as a good ride.

Macchia Nera concept bike
MSRP $201,000

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.

Ecosse Moto Works’ Limited Edition Titanium
MSRP $275,000

Last, but by no means least is the first ever Titanium motorcycle. With handcrafted, clear coated carbon fiber bodywork, hand painted tank and get this – a fuel injected, supercharged, intercooled 2,150cc billet motor, clear coated carbon fiber wheels and a hand made titanium exhaust system. This bike weights 440 lbs and puts out “more than,” 200 hp – at the rear wheel, and produces “more than,” 210 ft/lbs of torque. This is a little like the old expression from Rolls Royce when they were asked how much power their car engines produced – enough. Available exclusively from Robb Report.com Oh, and you get a free watch. I should bloody well hope so for over a quarter million dollars. Unlike the Dodge and Macchia, this one is actually in production - 10 have been built.

DOG'S & DOG'S

Image
Puppie's Page Choosing your Puppy: Different breeds will have certain characteristics for which they were bred. Ask breeders at dog shows and look them up in breed books for further information. You must consider several things before deciding on a dog: How much time can you spend with it? Dogs are social creatures. They will not be happy left out in the back yard alone. You must be committed to spending several hours a day with it. What space can you provide for it? If you live in a small apartment, you must take this into consideration: many dogs will not do well unless you spend a good deal of effort in meeting their needs. Don't be fooled by size into thinking a dog will be OK in a small apartment -- A terrier for example requires a lot of exercise. Conversely, many Mastiffs are content tojust lie on the floor and do nothing at all while you are gone. How much money can you set aside for it? Even if you get a dog from the shelter or otherwise inexpensively, you will have to
