This Motorcycle Is A Piece of Forgotten Ferrari History And It Could Be Yours

An ultra-rare two-wheeled Ferrari racer is set to go on the auction block in a few weeks time.

An ultra-rare Ferrari racer from the 1930s is set to go under the hammer at a RM Sotheby's auction on the 8th of February in Paris. However, what makes this rare specimen even more special is the fact that it only ever put two wheels on the ground as it raced to victory.

ADDENDUM: Please note that the after a thorough investigation by RM Sotheby's following claims that the bike was not an actual Ferrari racer, the auction house has released the following statement: "This motorcycle is an evocation of those raced by Scuderia Ferrari, containing components from a 1932 Rudge TT Replica. It was never raced by Scuderia Ferrari, nor was the engine originally stamped "SF 135." Furthermore, this lot is now offered without reserve."
