Specialists in antique, classic, veteran and vintage motorcycles.
Explore a curated collection of rare vintage motorcycles from The Vintage Motorcycles, specializing in authenticated pre-war, military, and post-war collector machines sourced from private collections, family holdings, historic workshops, and motorcycle owners throughout Vietnam. Many of these motorcycles were originally manufactured in Europe, the United Kingdom, the United States, and other countries before being imported into Vietnam during earlier historical periods, where they remained in private ownership and collections for decades.
Unlike general motorcycle marketplaces, we focus exclusively on historically significant motorcycles with verified identity, accurate specifications, collector relevance, and long-term preservation value.
We aim to verify frame and engine numbers, model designation, production year, factory configuration, and condition before being presented to collectors worldwide. For more information about our purchasing process, please see our How to Buy Our Vintage Motorcycle guide.

Many motorcycles in our collection were discovered in Vietnam after decades of storage, preservation, and changing ownership. Hidden away in private garages, old workshops, family collections, and forgotten storage spaces, these historic machines often remained untouched for generations before being carefully sourced and brought back into the collector community. Many of these motorcycles carry unique stories connected to Vietnam's past, including machines imported during earlier historical periods by European residents, international organizations, military personnel, and private owners. Through careful research, mechanical inspection, and preservation work, we help rediscover these forgotten motorcycles and return them to collectors who appreciate their authenticity and historical significance.
Where historical documentation exists, ownership information, factory details, and previous records are carefully preserved. When original documentation is unavailable, authenticity is established through mechanical evidence and factory specifications.
Our Approach We document what can be verified. We do not fill gaps in history with assumptions. Collectors receive accurate information before acquisition.
Every motorcycle is evaluated beyond appearance. Our inspection process focuses on mechanical condition, historical correctness, and long-term ownership confidence.
No cosmetic concealment.
No undisclosed structural repairs.
No inaccurate claims regarding originality.
