Ultra-rare Porcupine

The motorcycle is one of the only four AJS E95 Porcupines built by British manufacturer AJS during World War II. This porcupine was built during World War II by British manufacturer AJS and is one of the only four such bikes ever created. For the last 20 years, this motorbike was on display at the National Motorcycle Museum in Coventry but, is now being sold and is expected to bring in a whooping $750,000. The bike was plagued by finicky carburetion and the magneto shafts were forever failing, sending AJS back to the drawing board. The new E95 featured cylinders canted 45 degrees to improve cooling and ease carb installation. It also got a host of internal mods and a revised frame. A pannier-style fuel tank lowered the center of gravity.

Jack Armstrong’s Harley

To add to the exclusivity of the machine, Jack has put a small sign on the bike that reads “If you are not Lady GaGa, Scarlett Johansson or Sylvester Stallone, DO NOT TOUCH THIS HARLEY”.

1928 Coventry Eagle Flying-8

The Coventry Eagle Flying 8 motorcycle got its name from the then high-end engine, which generated 8 horsepower according to Royal Automobile Club (RAC) ratings. Created in 1928 by the Royal Eagle, this iconic figure has witnessed the test of time. The bike has been owned by John Ellis, Ken Hodgson, Bruce Smith and Stephen Broadbridge. The 980 cc capacity of the engine ensured that the top speed of 80 mph was reached with ease which was quite a mean feat of that time. Other distinct features of the bike include the 8-inch disc brakes on the front and back wheels, and the Jardine gearbox along with the ghost silencers, which was a late addition along with the magdyno electric lighting and a steering damper which aided greater control at higher speeds. It is no surprise that it is expected to go for an amount as high as $300,000 if not more.
