In early 2005 The Tonight Show With Jay Leno, Harley-Davidson, and Bartel’s Harley auctioned off a Road King on eBay to help the tsunami victims in South Asia. The bike was auctioned off for a whopping $800,100.00. The money raised from the bike’s auction on eBay benefited the American Red Cross International Disaster Relief efforts.

Man, this is a bike you do NOT want to have any damage on. Here I am with the bike, personally overseeing the packing and loading.

While the motorcycle was on the eBay auction, Jay Leno invited his guests to autograph the bike.

The first thing to do is strap it down to the pallet with the plastic covering in place.

Next, wrap it up.

Then attach the aluminum frame supports and cover it up with the cardboard top.

We moved this bike to it’s new home in Houston TX, damage-free. This was the most expensive item we’ve ever moved.
