The bike is sick … it’s a 1955 Harley Davidson Model K … and it’s the same one used on screen in Johnny’s 1990 cult movie. The Harley goes on sale through the Kruse GWS auctions and the opening bid is set at $ 250,000 … with potential buyers having to bid in increments of $ 25,000 if they are to win Johnny’s film. If this sounds a bit far-fetched, keep in mind the huge wave of popularity Johnny has had since he won the defamation case against Amber Heard. The fact is that all the things related to Depp are commodities nowadays. The auction house says Harley was the “image moped” used throughout the filming of the main photos … in both Maryland and Hollywood. The motorcycle has changed hands over the years and is currently on display at a museum in Branson, Missouri after years of exhibiting at various exhibits across the country. The auction also includes Janis Joplin’s mandolin, which she once gave to Jimmy Hendrix. The instrument is hand-painted with flowers and phrases … such as “Love Thy Neighbor” and Jimi’s name. The auction house says that the mandolin has been in a private collection for 20 years and is on the market for the first time. They estimate that it will cost 250 thousand dollars. The auction opens on June 25.
