Chicara Nagata: $1mil Motorcycle

Posted by algie in Uncategorized Tuesday, 11 November 2008 03:35 No Comments

What would you expect after someone spent a long 7,500 hours hand-crafting a motorcycle? Obviously, an unparalleled creation! Chicara Nagata’s award-winning motorcycles are literally unparalleled. They are not just motorcycles, but masterpieces. Three of his stunning bikes have been showcased in an exhibit at New York’s Ippodo Gallery and the Contemporary Asian Art Fair. These retro-futuristic motorcycles are an upshot of a marriage between vintage parts and modern design. Chicara’s art is his expression of gratefulness to the people who donated their blood and worked to save his life when he met with a motorcycle accident at the age of 16. Chicara earned himself a name in custom bike building by winning the AMD World Championship in 2006. Other than the antique Harley Davidson engines, the 500 parts used in his every motorcycle are handcrafted. These amazing works of art are not cheap either, with every single motorcycle being sold for $1 million.
