Macchia Nera Concept Motorcycle

The Macchia Nera Concept Bike is near the top of the list of most expensive motorcycles at 150,000 Euros ($201,000). Built around a Ducati 998RS engine, its Italian designers and engineers set out to create an extremely high tech and expensive motorcycle that would be thought of as “the ultimate track bike” that is “simply beautiful and beautifully simple”.

The Testastretta engine is fitted with lightweight metals and alloys like titanium and aluminum making it very lightweight. The view from the side of the Macchia Nera shows exposed belts and engine components, giving its design a minimalist feel while still being aesthetically pleasing. We should add that this bike is a one of a kind and not in produced for retail at this point, but if you have an extra 150,000 Euros ($201,000) laying around for an expensive toy, your dream might come true.

UA bike built with a singular focus - power and light weight. Achieved with extensive use 
of Poggipolini's titanium artistry and with his highest know-how from the F1, MotoGP and aerospace technology and experience (since 1950).
Macchia Nera. Italian for “Black Spot.” 
Curious name for a bespoke motorcycle. Definitely unique, the Macchia Nera bears little resemblance to the custom bikes we frequently see.

How unique? Here’s how the plan unfolded. Stefano called on his good friend, Aldo Drudi the famed Italian designer.


“Il Signore Drudi” was given freedom to create a fresh and aggressive design.


 185 HP, 135 Kgs. Road rage has met its soul mate.
