22 1929 Scott Flying Squirrel – $276,000
Scott motorcycles are well known for being ahead of their time. Founded by a British inventor, Alfred Angas Scott, his bikes had features on them that wouldn’t be seen again for years.
One of these features utilized a thermosyphon water-cooler in the two-stroke motor.
Besides the ingenious engineering, this 1929 Scott Flying Squirrel was actually owned by Kenny Howard (Von Dutch) who then restored the motorcycle before selling it to Steve McQueen. McQueen stated his love for the bike and owned it up to the day he died. His estate was then sold off and its owner is also the same man who has revived the Von Dutch name. The price for this particular bike is most in part to the names and legends that have surrounded the bike throughout its years.
