    The Most Expensive Motorcycle also features a foldable handlebar allowing the bike to be lifted in and out of ‘parking position’ in the small garage in the rear of the boat.

 “We still will build our normal custom bikes for our customers, but this is a completely new market and we always welcome new impulses for markets yet unexplored,” said Eric Vauth of House of Thunder .
