In the world of magicians, there are few names as big as Criss Angel. The American is one of the craziest appearances at the street corner and on stage, and the number of people he baffled over the years probably counts in the millions.
Befitting a dark magician with the ability to make neurons curl up and die, Angel is no stranger to the world of cars and motorcycles. In fact, he’s collection of vehicles is so large he needs a whole estate to house them all.
Among Angel’s prized possessions one can find car nameplates like Dodge Viper, Porsche 911, Bugatti Veyron, and even a Campagna T Rex three-wheeler. As for bikes, well, the man has a thing for custom choppers.
There are a bunch of them that caught his eyes over the years, and nearly all of them made by a shop called Big Bear Choppers. His collection at one point included at least four Big Bear builds, and the man was so proud of them he even featured them in some of his shows.
One of these bikes, a 2007 build signed by the same garage, is going under the hammer this weekend at the Mecum Las Vegas motorcycle auction. Sure, it’s not the famous Skeleton built by Big Bear for Angel, but still it is an impressive piece of moving metal.
Powered by a S&S 111ci engine linked to a Baker 6-speed transmission, the build stays true to the extreme style of early choppers with a very low riding position, extended front end, and an overall stretched appearance. The bike comes in bright orange and a lot of chrome.
The motorcycle has less than 1,000 miles on the odometer, and the suggested price for sale is $43,000. For that, whoever will buy it will also receive full documentation and the owner’s info material.
