- Open to the public from February 18, 2026
- Original racing motorcycles from world champions on road and off-road
- Location at FIM headquarters in Mies near Geneva
At the end of 2024, the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme completely renovated its headquarters in Mies, Switzerland. The former premises were converted into a new museum dedicated entirely to international motorcycle racing. Following an internal inauguration as part of the FIM Awards in December, the museum is now set to open to the public on a regular basis.
Racing history from 1949 to today
The FIM Racing Motorcycle Museum displays dozens of original racing machines from all eras of FIM history. The time span ranges from the early years of the world championships to current prototypes. All motorcycles on display are genuine competition vehicles and not replicas.
Among the historic exhibits is the AJS Porcupine, with which Leslie Graham won the first world championship title in the 500cc class in 1949. Also on display is the 1967 Honda RC166, with which Mike Hailwood made history. Other striking racing machines come from different decades and disciplines, including superbikes, Grand Prix motorcycles, motocross, and enduro.
World Champion Motorcycles of the 2025 Season
One focus of the exhibition is on the seven world champion motorcycles of the 2025 season from the most important FIM disciplines. Among others, Marc Marquez’s MotoGP machine, Toprak Razgatlioglu’s Superbike, and the title bikes from TrialGP, EnduroGP, MXGP, Speedway, and Rally Raid will be on display. This means that both road racing series and classic off-road competitions are equally represented.
Successful machines from the recent past also complement the exhibition. These include Superbikes from WorldSBK, motocross motorcycles from several world champions, and racing machines from more recent FIM competitions.
Off-road, technology, and interactive areas
In addition to classic circuit racing series, the museum also takes a detailed look at off-road disciplines. Historic Dakar motorcycles, trial prototypes, and motocross world championship machines document the development of these sports over several decades.
Another exhibition area is dedicated to technical and technological advances in racing. Topics include safety equipment, chassis development, and engineering solutions from different generations. The exhibition is complemented by a simulator zone where visitors can experience virtual motocross tracks and circuits.
Quote from the FIM President
FIM President Jorge Viegas describes the museum’s mission as follows:
“The FIM Racing Motorcycle Museum brings together a remarkable collection. Strolling among the exhibits is like taking a journey through the illustrious history of motorcycle racing, from its founding years to the present day. Much more than just an exhibition of classic machines, the RMM offers visitors a valuable and interactive insight into the heritage of the sports we all love, helping them to better understand the emotions and innovation they involve.”
Opening hours, prices, and location
The museum is located at the FIM headquarters in Mies, not far from Lake Geneva. It will be open Wednesday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Admission for adults is €19 (approx. $21). Discounted tickets cost €12.50 (approx. $14). Children and young people under the age of 16 are admitted free of charge. An adjoining paddock café invites visitors to linger and watch historical and current races on large screens.
