A one-off Viper V10 motorcycle built by legendary British engineer Allen Millyard has sold for £130,000 at auction. The one-of-a-kind machine, powered by a V10 engine, has officially passed to a new owner.
Allen Millyard is basically a god to me. Putting a V10 in a bike is not a sane idea, but he pulled it off single-handedly. That Viper selling for £130,000 — that's the answer to how much value a one-off piece of handiwork can command. A motorcycle isn't a vehicle, it's culture. This is the proof of that.

Something like this probably can't handle city riding or touring, but I'd love to see it in person.
Did they literally swap in a Viper engine as-is?
Stuffing in a whole V10 and building the frame from scratch—that's a genuine one-off.
Millyard has long been known as an engine-obsessed builder.
Being a one-off, it's a hard purchase to gauge in terms of resale value.
I think the real value here is in the buzz and the one-off factor, more than resale value.
130,000 pounds at today's exchange rate works out to over 20 million yen.
I've seen the Millyard V10 in a video before—the sound is absolutely insane.
