That’s incredible that out of all these very desirable bikes,you would choose a Royal Enfield! I pretty much agree with you. That REALLY says something about the company. They really are building the motorcycles that people want, at the price they want.
I just bought a Super Meteor 650 and love it. Great value for the money at roughly half the price of the nearest competitor. It is a really great back to basics motorcycle, no gizmos (except for the tripper), no traction control and doesn't even have radar, lol. But, it is a head turner.
Personally… hate it. Interesting cos we’re obviously all different in tastes and needs, but I’d get cheaper versions of other bikes that aren’t necessarily on this list.
They build bikes absolutely nobody wants, at a price point people are willing g to pay. Most einfield owners ik become triumph owners immediately after realizing how bad royals are.
@@TXLorenzo A lot of people just want a reliable bike to commute on and get from A to B, without the frills. About the cheapest mode of transport for all vehicles is a 125 cc scooter. Can flow with the traffic and just needs a provisional licence to ride. Some pass their bike test and get a bike like the Enfield. Leave the gizmo stuff for the guys who bike for bikes sake, and more so can afford it.
@malcolmabram2957. That's all well and good unless like me your commute is nearly 80 miles a day on a fair amount of motorway.. scooters. would just be dangerous..
How hilarious is Harley Davidson seriously. More expensive than the kawasaki that produces 326hp and is probably the most technologically advanced bike ever when all they have to justify the costs is a fancy paint job
Just received my Moto Guzzi V100S and it's about as much bike as I want to handle. With the Centannario Verde colors and the world-first active aerodynamics, this looks like a future classic.
Very interesting. But jeez! I’d be terrified to put a little scratch on most of those! I think I’ll take a much more modest second hand option and actually learn to ride it well…
The Ducati seems like it is lacking any value for what it is. Just my opinion. But the MV Agusta!!! OMG that bike really brings out the emotion in me. Love this and the roadster. If I was in the market, I would buy the V100. Seems like a retro and futuristic looking bike at the same time. Is that even possible!
If your going to buy a goldwing in the UK. You may as well buy a car.. I'd guess (where I live) your have zero chance of filtering through stationary traffic (about 90% of traffic is stationary these days it seems)
Among all these, i find Hayabusa most vfm and the best to buy. I mean it’s insane for a 1300cc hypersports tourer to be priced at £18000. Checks all boxes.
Dream garage for me is: 1. KRGT1 for cruising and riding without a destination 2. Dragster 800rr for a roadster 3. BMW 1250 GS for long distance riding 4. ZX6R for the track 5. Honda Trail 125 for a wildcard pick
I love that window screen that goes up and down on the front just what you need when you want a cruise or go fast and feel it no need for two Motorcycles that can be summer or winter
Several two wheel cars. Track day poser machines. Tons of stupid wings. Looked better on 70's F1 cars. Even if I had the money, the only one I would consider buying is the Enfield. So many on this list will just end up in some rich blokes collection. With some lacky polishing them. The bike equivalent of gold covered Rolls Royce. Showing off your wealth.
My money went to a 2005 husky smr 570.. It is loud, it is light, it flies... it is way more fun than a heavy expensive machine with lots of parts you do not really need.
With all the "Track Specific" bikes on this list, how could you leave out the Ducati V4 Superleggera? Dwarves anything on this list and is a masterpiece of art.
I'm in the market for a Sport-touring bike, so of the bikes in this video, I will go with the Moto Guzzi. Now if MV Agusta would produce a SPORT-touring bike drafted from their Brutale 1000...
@@abymathew295 True enough, but it looks a tad to utilitarian for me. MV Agusta makes a sporty bike look sporty, given the task of producing a Sport -Touring bike, I think they would nail it.
@abymathew295 riding my whole life, racing the same amount of time. The 1290 was almost too much bike. Ridden a turbo busa, an h2(no h2r yet) and plenty of monster track bikes. The ktm was the only one that made me actually scared
There is really no rational reason for a price above 25.000! you get some cars for this price. It’s not the production costs that makes this bikes expensive, it’s the marketing. Those bikes are getting there luxury or exclusivity label through the price tags and not the features they deliver.
Awesome video. In 1974 my Honda Gold Wing Prototype did 180MPH for $3,500. Now on a black Pro Street Breakout, I feel like I'm doing 180 just sitting on it, revving the twin cam through Bassani pipes. Harley Davidson has the feel of a MC, that all other's envy. My favorite style of FAST is the Superveloce by MV Augusta
In 1994 the average salary was about £18k so these numbers are usually skewed by high earners, so 12k is probably the average wage for your neighbours in your average job
Agree with all your picks. Royal Enfield does make some great looking bikes for the Money. Then you have a $50,000 Harley on the other end. Buy a Honda Gold Wing and save $20,000. Some of these manufacturers are still living in COVID ERA pricing where everyone paid over MSRP.. Today people asking where is my DISCOUNT. No one paying Msrp. Prices go up like a Rocket but drop like a feather. With high interest rates, tighter money, wait for the discounts. During covid you felt rich with all the cash thrown at you. All the money printing caused inflation. Inflation is still too high and no one feels rich anymore. Not $50,000 rich for a motorcycle which is a depreciating liability. That’s a down payment for an asset, a house.
The intro - "The most expensive bikes currently offered by 15 of the biggest motorcycle manufacturers in the World..." Brough are a niche/boutique manufacturer. He never mentioned the £95k CR700 by Brian Crighton or anything by Norton either.
I would be happy to ride the Moto Guzzi. Great show, I really enjoyed it. My first bike was a 1973 Honda 500 Four, poop emoji brown tank, rusty 4-into-1 headers, a Barnett racing clutch. I was the King of the Road and I wish I had her back today.
Back when the 916 in my case it was the 996-998 was out and I had my own job at Saab making gearboxes I would have money enough after 1 year to buy that duc straight out, that as a green horn at the job with the entry pay. Not the case anymore with the high end 1 litre superbikes. Stuff just gets more and more expensive(old folk said it way back as well) but the money we earn is just not there anymore in the west.
Have had many bikes but my 2021 DCT base gold wing I got nearly new for 20K. Will smoke any Harley or Indian in both straight line and cornering. Would love to try out the Triumph on a track. Adding 10K to some of these bikes for paint and electronics seems insane to me. But I guess if you got it $$$$ flaunt it.
If money was no option i would have the RIm, BMW 1000rr ,Ducati Penigalle , the Augusta,The Rush and the Ninja H2. I would be a very happy man with any of those. 👍🙏
Without question, don't even need to think about it, Moto Guzzi Mandello V100S. On another note why the track only bikes? probably would be better off doing a separate video for those bike that the average Joe ain't going to buy. Also given this video is from a year back, and todays current circumstances, be interesting to know what that Harley Would be worth now, not a lot I would imagine.
I have always heard about the problems of British bikes getting nicked all the time. It is as if there is a well organized theft ring throughout the UK. I am sure the police are getting right on it.
I wish you spoke Freedom English. Who has time to count 850 mm when feet and inches would be quicker and easier for people that might buy it to understand.
I’m not a sub but just found this video I thought most expensive Ducati you could buy is the Desmond a.k.a. Desmosedici RR Only 1500 made so finding an owner willing to sell good luck and if you do won’t get much change out of 200K not a bad price considering it’s a MotoGP With a tax disk
Love those Ducs. From a 90 Honda VTR250 in the most 90s pink and blue graphics you've ever seen to a couple of Ducs of which the parts I have put on are worth more than a stock bike.. It's an addiction... Don't get Ducatis unless you have room for 2 more and your significant other says something like "You know at first I didn't like having a bike that you ride every day in the living room but it's really grown on me now".... What I would love is a MTT-420RR.... $250,000 Anyone remember the Stellan Egeland Slugger? Hummmmmmm
Why do British channels report all prices in pounds (GBP)? I understand it is their local currency, but I think they aim at a wider audience than just national. English is the international language afterall.
Because its the sale price in the UK and the £ is the currency of the UK. As others have pointed out prices vary from country to country so you have to have a constant, which is UK prices in UK pounds. Simple.
Because it's not made by one of the 15 biggest motorcycle manufacturers in the world. That's not to say that the list IS the top 15, but the Lotus is nowhere near a big manufacturer.
Jaysus..... I think your final point nailed it, 4 top quality bikes in their own right, or one mind numbingly ugly bike? A spare grand buys a lot of guiness also.....

I've got a big willy but I'm not bragging.👀😛
How you liking the ape? First street bike I rode was an older aprilia rsv-R in the Crayola racing livery. I was an abnormally tall 12 year old😂
Current goal in life is clean up house, sell house, buy tuono v4R factory, buy house, be happy.
Very interesting. But jeez! I’d be terrified to put a little scratch on most of those!

I think my fav would be vmax 1700. I wish they still produced them
916 was my dream bike too. Finally got one in my 20s and it was always giving me problems. But I loved it.
I tried one for 3 blocks and couldn't stand the sound when leaving a stop. Sounded broken. Will never own one. But will always love it.
@@rattyratstuff7125 dry clutch. You either love it or hate it.

and most hated bike !

Most hated around town, and in traffic
Not selling it though.......

There's also the Arch KRGT-1 and S1. They'd top this list. But they are bespoke builds.

Super Meteor 650 would be within my pension budget but I would have to sell my Interceptor first lol. If I had to choose it would be the Gold Wing.
I rewatched,115 up for the Moto Guzi, both colors look great. Look forward to the test on it.
I do admire Guzzi for still marching to the beat of their own drum.

I'll keep what I have XT1200 CRF1000 KLX650 EXC525 WR250F
That Ducati 916 is essentially the same price as the Rocket 3 gt chrome edition with inflation taken in to account
If I could, I'd have a Brough Superior Dagger.
I can't though, so off this list I'd probably go for the v100.
That green/gold Moto Guzi was sharp,everything about it ,wheels Exhaust & price. Hope its over 100 hp.
the H2R and the GoldWing is my farvorite, absolutely stunning. the H2R for the race and the Goldwing for camping :)) the bests of the best.
The green definitely works better with the street fighter than with the diavel. Nice design.
Best engine period is a V4 for a motorcycle, yes there're expensive to produce but the torque and power are in a league of their own..
In 1994 the average salary was about £18k so these numbers are usually skewed by high earners, so 12k is probably the average wage for your neighbours in your average job

....why has the Harley at no.2 got the front end of a Dodge'em car stuck to the bars?
The 1994 Ducati 916 was $14500 new in the US.
That's about $29000 today.
Love the Rush. My friend has one and I'm jelly. 😅

From 1994 till now it's almost 30 years Mate. Not 20 years ago..great vid though! Greet's from Germany
They are asking around 200 000 usd for the ducati x lambo in norway, absolutely mental
I also this the gauge cluster is far too out... I'm 6ft ona good warm day- and it was a good warm day when i checked the bike out in person.
I'd get a Dr650 for 5k and spend the other 50k travelling.
I would go for Indian , mc Augusta rush , triumph , Ducati and well there is much more place in the garage
what about Arch motorcycle ?
Hayabusa. Once you ride one anything else seems not enough. 😎
Back when the 916 in my case it was the 996-998 was out and I had my own job at Saab making gearboxes I would have money enough after 1 year to buy that duc straight out, that as a green horn at the job with the entry pay. Not the case anymore with the high end 1 litre superbikes. Stuff just gets more and more expensive(old folk said it way back as well) but the money we earn is just not there anymore in the west.

Reverse this list and you have my order of preference.
For my taste, I could only appreciate the value of MV agusta and mandello and maybe BMW. I don't like any other bike from this list.
If money was no option i would have the RIm, BMW 1000rr ,Ducati Penigalle , the Augusta,The Rush and the Ninja H2. I would be a very happy man with any of those. 👍🙏

A Honda CB1000 RR-R in my country, costs more than the Ducati/Lambo (£+52.000)…. We are closer to £100.000 for that Ducati here.
Is the Honda a 2023 bike?
I was wondering wheres the Honda RC213V-S and the Ducati Desmosedici RR since you covered track only bikes .. hmmm but great video though
issue is garages in uk are so unsafe.. too many motorcycle thieves in the UK.
I have always heard about the problems of British bikes getting nicked all the time. It is as if there is a well organized theft ring throughout the UK. I am sure the police are getting right on it.
I wish you spoke Freedom English. Who has time to count 850 mm when feet and inches would be quicker and easier for people that might buy it to understand.
I wonder if you bought the base model and then just add all these components on yourself would it cost less
i loved the enfield cafe racer in that clip - old school styling and not trying too hard - HP2 if I win lottery though 👍
4:07 Why are there almost no pictures of the Rocket 3's left side any where?
I love the new moto guzzi V100 Mandello awesome look forward to your review lovely bike😊

Sound clips of each bike would have been nice....just a thought!!!
Great video mate, thanks

Desmosedici RR Only 1500 made so finding an owner willing to sell good luck and if you do won’t get much change out of 200K not a bad price considering it’s a MotoGP With a tax disk
Totally agree with you on the harley paint
You would need another 30k for repairs on the Ducati
Great vid. A Road legal version would also be cool.

Anyone remember the Stellan Egeland Slugger? Hummmmmmm
Isn't Ducati Superleggera V4 priced around 90-100 thousand euros ? I expected it to be the most expensive on the list
I know it's not a big company but what about Buell?
I'll take the Guzzi thank you 😊
Isn't the Superleggera more expensive than the SF Lambo?
Why do British channels report all prices in pounds (GBP)? I understand it is their local currency, but I think they aim at a wider audience than just national. English is the international language afterall.
Because its the sale price in the UK and the £ is the currency of the UK. As others have pointed out prices vary from country to country so you have to have a constant, which is UK prices in UK pounds. Simple.
The KTM is misleading. It's not out of the factory so if you throw aftermarket bits at any bike (like the KTM) then the price can rocket.
Just purchased a 2024 Aprilia RS 660 Extrema
Why didn't you include Zero and Energica?
You missed ducati.V4 superleggara, costs US$100,000 +.
How about the Lotus C-01? I’m not sure about the price but it’s a pretty crazy looking bike
Because it's not made by one of the 15 biggest motorcycle manufacturers in the world.
That's not to say that the list IS the top 15, but the Lotus is nowhere near a big manufacturer.
