This Motorcycle Find Could Break the Bank (S17, E1) | American Pickers | Full Episode
American Pickers Secure Record Motorcycle Collection in Oregon
Mike and Frank execute their largest purchase ever, securing multiple museum-quality, rare motorcycles, including a priceless Ace Four-Cylinder, from a lifelong private collection.
Short Summary
- Secure the near-complete, famously rare 1922 Ace Four-Cylinder motorcycle engine.
- Finalize a $90,000 deal, marking this as the largest single expenditure in the show’s history.
- Acquire unique pieces of Americana, including custom hot rod art and collectible vintage denim from a multi-generational ranch.
This episode features Mike and Frank meeting Zane and Linda to assess the massive collection accumulated by Zane's late father, Larry, who favored rare "orphan" vehicles. The pick culminates in a potentially historic acquisition centered around exceptionally rare pre-WWII motorcycles, forcing the duo to confront their financial limits.

Pray for Mife and his love , they were in a serious accident in Tennessee. They are recovering well . Thank you Mike and family for sharing your family with us. God bless you 🙏
This show reminds me of my 1 summer doing methamphetamine and watched this show like crazy and other things 😉 but that was 2016 and im normal now 😉
I am a biker. This 45k for the partial ACE, I thought was an over buy but, I did some background. He sold this bike on auction for 198.000!!!!

The old seasons slap
The beginning of this was from "Walk Hard" 😂
I miss the early seasons. Were a lot more fun to watch and less about the big picks.
That's an awesome bike, would love to be able to do a mock up replica. The ACE Maybe a predator 212 would be cool for something like this, lol Probably more work making the faux parts to make the engine look the part, lol but oh what fun!
I love how he was so connected to his Dad and he had the passion too. His Wife obviously supported the lifestyle too. Cool stuff.
He better not try the Tea , he might have a heart attack.
