15 1954 AJS E95 Porcupine – $695,000
Back to the classic bikes with an all-out racing motorcycle. This is easily one of the most expensive motorcycles ever sold at auction, and is one of the most expensive on this list! After a Porcupine had won the first 500cc World Championship in 1949, the years following had brought nothing but disappointment and the 1954 Porcupine is the last model year built to compete. Winning the Swedish Grand Prix was the highlight of the season as AJS withdrew from involvement in the Grand Prix. All four E95 Porcupines built survive today, this one having escaped a fire that engulfed the museum it was displayed in as it was getting restored by Team Obsolete in New York.
