Default Jay Leno VMax Auction sold for $120,000

I just found out about this and wanted to share it with you:


Jay Leno's custom VMax was sold at the Barrett-Jackson classic car auction Oct. 10 at the Mandalay Bay Casino in Las Vegas. With Jay Leno making a surprise appearance, the bike ends up selling for $120,000. Together with the bike the lucky winner gets Jay's helmet, jacket and can pickup the bike at Jay's private motorcycle garage - tour of the facilities included.

Final moments of the Jay Leno Vmax auction...

That's way too much money for a VMAX, the good news is all the money is going to charity.
