1949 Moto Major 350

Moto Major 350Torinese engineer Salvatore Majorca created the revolutionary Moto Major straight after WWII. Apparently it was an engineering rather than styling exercise, but 60 years on, its shape is still breathtaking. The wheels, in particular, would not look out of place on many modern motorcycles.

    Sweet. There is nothing more beautiful than a well designed motorcycle. So few these days.

    This has got to be the most beautiful motorcycle on Earth. Too many bikes today are designed to look good only with a rider. This is a bike that looks perfect on its own. I would love to have one of these on a pedestal at my local art/design museum.
