This Drivable Tron Light Cycle Can Be Yours in May
On May 2, 2015 RM Sotheby’s will be auctioning off a fully functional, electric version of the Tron: Legacy motorcycle. The bike features a 96 volt, direct-drive electric motor with lithium batteries, a computer controlled throttle, rebound and compression damping with spring-preload front suspension and rigid rear suspension, and front and rear hydraulic brakes.
RM Sotheby’s adds:
This custom electric vehicle was built especially for the Andrews Collection to recreate the unique motorcycles seen in the 2010 movie Tron: Legacy.
The bike was partially built by an outside firm and then sent to the Andrews’s own shop for completion… This custom Tron tribute boasts a very low seat height of 28.5 inches, making it easy to ride even at low speeds… After its completion by the Andrews’ in 2012, the bike has only been ridden around their facilities to ensure that it remains in functioning condition.
The bike is being auctioned without reserve, although RM Sotheby’s estimates the lot value to be in the range of $25,000 – $40,000 USD. For more information visit the official RM Sotheby’s listing.
