If you are an avid motorcycle enthusiast, then you will no doubt recognize, “The Da Vinci Racer,” motorcycle that we are listing for sale in our No Reserve Auction today. On August 28th, 2012, this motorcycle broke the 1000a-ag speed record at the, “Bonneville Salt Flats” by over 16 mph.

“Leonardo Da Vinci” ……a man with unquenchable curiosity and a feverishly inventive personality is widely considered to be the most diversely talented person to ever have lived.

Carl and Mark from, “Super-Rat Motorcycles”, located in Bellingham, WA, worked tirelessly on, “The Da Vinci Racer” to create a work or art worthy of its namesake.

While this motorcycle may bear a resemblance to its Ducati relatives, I can assure that virtually every component on this bike is either highly modified or hand made.

If either Leonardo or the Ducati Factory were to try and build a competitive, “Land Speed Racer”, they would have a hard time competing with the one that Super-Rat has already assembled.
