Today I visited an amazing museum just outside Madrid displaying hundreds of bikes made solely in Spain including Motovespas and Lambrettas.

Fantastic. What a fun place. Love the Ossa street bike! You pretty much only see dirt/trail bikes around. Any bultacos there of note?

Sorry can't remember the name of it...Triere... something. Don't think it ever made it into production.

Wow, look at that place. Can't wait to check it out someday. For now, I just have a 1974 Bultaco Alpina 250 to toot around on. Bloody hard starting it, though. Amal carb issues!

I am so glad you posted the pictures, they look awesome. Spain and Italy made one of the leading 2 stroke motorcycles for a decades. Angel nieto won 11 or 12 world championships on derbi and Bultaco(spanish brand), others like Jordi Tarres won 7 world championships Trial on trial Motorcycles(Betta and gas-gas). Toni Bou has won 16 world championships on trial motorcycles with Montesa(spanish brand). In the 60s and 70s Bultaco, Ossa and Montesa were top 3.

All of these were legendary 2 stroke bikes. That picture of the ossa 500cc is straight out scary. Yamaha had the RZ350cc 2t. In the 90's Cagiva mito cagier fressccia with 7 speed I believe, Gileras and Aprillas 125cc along with some Hondas NSR 2T 125cc were superb.
