I kinda have a man crush on the Pope. Never thought I'd say it. Dude is selling a Harley that he got as a gift. Props. Link to article below. Peace!

who thinks..."I need a gift for the pope..OH I KNOW A MOTORCYCLE"

Maybe he got it as a gift but do not ride?

Someone hoping to see a motorbike-riding pope?

Of course, that seems... optimistic.

He gets a lot of expensive stuff as gifts, but he's a Jesuit, they don't believe in material possessions, so the bike is being sold for charity. Plus, it's a Harley. Meh.

Who thinks..."I need a gift for the pope."

Period?

Period?

People who want to sell stuff. He's a marketing celebrity, like any other.

$327,000 for the bike, $77,485 for the jacket.

Casitas Roma was the big winner here. Church did something right for once.

That's significantly more than Steve McQueens Indian or Husquvarna sold for. Is the Pope the new king of cool?

 

[sticker]

I wouldn't pay $1.00 over retail for it.....and not because it's a Harley. So the Pope may have sat on the thing, whoop-de-do-dah. Who cares?? Not me.

same reason celebrity owned items sell for more....someone wants a connection to the celebrity.

The Pope wouldn't be the first or last guy to make the sign of the cross after the Hog completes a ride without incident.
