Italian motorcycles at San Francisco International Airport

Here’s another great offering from the folks at the SFO Museum at San Francisco International Airport:

Italian motorcycles from the 1950s and 1960s.

175cc CSS Super Sport "Disco Volante" 1955



“Nineteen motorcycles, ranging from singularly produced racers such as Carlo Ubbiali’s 1951 Mondial 125cc Bialbero Grand Prix to 50cc production bikes from the late 1960s, demonstrate that while necessity breeds invention, the results can be truly stunning.”

Stunning indeed..

125cc Turismo 1951 FB Mondial (1948–79), Milan, Italy

Moto Bellissima: Italian Motorcycles from the 1950s and 1960s is located pre-security in the International Terminal Main Hall Departures Lobby at San Francisco International Airport. The exhibition will be there through April 28, 2012.
