If you've got a spare £40,000 knocking about in your wallet, you may have been able to become the proud owner of a used Harley-Davidson bike and jacket from a Hollywood movie.
But it looks like R Barry Stern beat you to it, for he recently splashed the cash at a charity auction in a bid to take home the (probably) coveted items.
According to Motorcycle News, Mr Stern paid the sum for John Travolta's jacket and bike from the road trip comedy Wild Hogs, in which four ageing men seek adventure on the open road.
The auction took place in Ocala, Florida, where Travolta has a house, while the profits were put towards the restoration of a local theatre.
Wild Hogs also features cameos from Paul Teutul Jr and Paul Teutul Sr of American Chopper fame, in addition to Peter Fonda from biking classic Easy Rider.
