8. NCR Macchia Nera – $225,000
via moto.zombdrive.com
Once again, this bike was limited edition, which is possibly why it’s so expensive. Granted, it was designed by the visionary Aldo Drudi, who showed his sense of humor by naming it “Macchia Nera,” or “Black Spot” in Italian, referring to the charred pavement you leave behind when riding it. The price certainly doesn’t come from the bike’s performance: its hp is 185 and has four valves per cylinder with a six speed transmission. But the whole bike weighs an anorexic two hundred and ninety seven pounds, making it the lightest bike on this list so far, and gearheads are sometimes obsessed with their collectibles being lighter and lighter.
