Why the Rolling Queen is special

Designed in collaboration with Royal Enfield, Deus Ex Machina reshaped the Meteor’s rear chassis with the 70s-style vibe of chopped bikes from that era. The king-queen seat, raised handlebars with moderately pulled-back grips, and an attention-getting front fork complete the cool, laid-back look.

The Rolling Queen Royal Enfield custom hits the proud points of chopper styling without compromising the Meteor 650’s contemporary handling or ride quality. Knowledgeable observers will recognize how Deus Ex Machina blended bad-boy styling cues with a modern bike. Less-informed viewers might not understand what Deus accomplished with this bike, but they’ll appreciate that it is somehow special.

Additional Deus Ex Machina customized and vintage bikes in the collection on Catawiki include unique Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, BMW, Husqvarna, and Bultaco motorcycles and a Cake e-bike. The Deus Ex Machina auction of custom motorcycles on Catawiki ends on Sunday, March 23.
