Every year, Wheels Through Time raffles off one of its beautifully restored motorcycles to help fund the museum for the next year, and 2022 is no exception. Well, no, that’s not true—the bike WTT is raffling this year is truly exceptional. It’s a sublime example of a 1937 Harley-Davidson Knucklehead—which Matt Walksler says is the rarest and most valuable bike they’ve offered as a raffle prize so far.
In fact, it’s so rare and valuable that it can be difficult to say with certainty what it’s even worth in 2022. The thing about bikes like this, Walksler says, is that when the few remaining examples left do change hands, it’s usually done through private sales. As a result, no one but the parties involved (and maybe their loved ones) know what the bike went for each time.
