A customised Harley-Davidson V-Rod owned by former Guns ‘n’ Roses guitarist Slash will go under the hammer next month.

The Harley V-Rod VRSCAW Twin Racing Street Custom Cruiser is expected to fetch between $8,000 and $10,000 (£4,900 – £6,200) when it goes up for auction in Beverley Hills, California on March 26.

Various custom Marc Vachon leather motorcycle jackets, including one decorated in a Velvet Revolver “Libertad” theme (estimated at $1,000-2,000), are also up for sale, as is a 1966 V-8 Corvette, expected to fetch between $80,000 and $100,000.

The auction catalogue also features some of Slash’s famous guitars, such as a one of a kind custom Stravinski Fender Stratocaster (estimated at $3,000-5,000), a B.C. Rich Red Mockingbird guitar (estimated at $2,000-4,000) and two versions of Slash’s very own Gibson and Epiphone Slash Les Paul signature model guitars in Tobacco Sunburst (estimated at $4,000-6,000).
