Custom-made Harley-Davidson has become the most expensive bike in the world

As per latest reports, a custom-made Harley-Davidson Softail Slim S from Switzerland has turned out to be the most costly bike in the globe.

The bike carries a price label of 12 crores. The excessive pricing though isn’t due to the tailor-made customisation the motorbike has gone through, but rather because of the reality that a variety of gemstones and costly stones have been utilized to embellish the motorbike and not to overlook the different gold coated bits on the motorbike, which provides it with its nearly impossible cost label.

As per Samir Merdanovic, Head of Manufacture Movements at Carl F. Bucherer, “It was a long road. The holder, for example, also serves as a watch winder. The watch is therefore wound regularly and continues to run, even if the motorcycle is not ridden for an extended period.”
