The Racing Motorcycle Museum in Mies, Switzerland, occupies the former FIM headquarters and opened to visitors on 18 February 2026. Its themes connect riders, technology and the transfer of ideas from racing to road use.
The permanent exhibition has nine thematic areas and more than 40 motorcycle models. Alongside different racing disciplines, it explores how forks and shock absorbers work, tyre technology and airbags in protective equipment.

One rewarding way to view the collection is to compare solutions: how do the motorcycle’s shape, riding position and protection change? That turns a visit into a conversation about people and machines, beyond recognising familiar models.
