Here are some of the rarest bikes in the world.

The 1916 Traub has some amazing features which make it extraordinary.
1911 Levis
This motorcycle was in production from 1911 to 1939 in the UK. Not many of these motorcycles made their way across the world. This motorcycle model was seen in 2011 when Mike Crane did a restoration of the 1911 Levis motorcycle. This motorcycle has a great starting ability. It has a 211cc two-stroke single. Levis was one of the most successful motorcycle models with a two-stroke single-engine.
