Luxurious One-Off Motorcycles

Bucherer & Bündnerbike Teamed Up for a Limited Motorcycle Design

— May 14, 2018 — Autos
Swiss watch and jewelry label Bucherer teamed up with custom bike maker Bündnerbike for an ultra-luxurious limited motorcycle design based on the Harley-Davidson Softail Slim S. The one-of-a-kind chopper is claimed to be the most expensive two-wheeler in the world — it is valued at 1.8 million Swiss Francs, which is about $1.79 million USD.

The extremely limited motorcycle is decorated with 360 diamonds and gold-plated screws. Bündnerbike used a secret painting technique for its custom design. Firstly, the chopper was silver-plated and later, six coats of paint were applied to reach the eye-catching iridescent blue coloring. Bucherer put its own signature elements on the limited motorcycle in the form of a unique timepiece that is integrated into the tank, as well as a Dizzler diamond ring from the company's Fine Jewelry collection.
