No matter if its a wrist watch or chocolate, we all know Swiss-made stuff can be pretty expensive. But how about a Swiss-made motorcycle with a $280,000 price tag?
Feline One has nothing to do with cats, except for a small resemblance in the design. It’s actually a motorcycle with a cool futuristic design by Swiss designer Yacouba Galle. It has an 801cc 3-cylinder engine with 170 horsepower, which of course you get with almost any mainstream Ducati or Honda bike. So, why the $280k price tag?
Well, for starters this bike has been built with some pretty unique materials, including a titanium frame with “electronically controlled” shocks and carbon fiber swingarm and front fork. All these materials have helped the bike cut its weight down to just 155 kg. To top it all up, the Feline One will also be a limited edition and only 50 rides will be made.

I’m not convinced with this bike to spend $250k, even if I had that kind of money. I’d rather go for a nice old-school Honda RC bike instead. How about you?
