Very Cool.

Tis "museum" is actually the private collection of one man:

How to Find Us - Solvang Vintage Motorcycle Museum, Solvang, CA (motosolvang.com)

The motorcycles in the museum are from the private collection of Virgil Elings. He has been collecting motorcycles for 2 decades. The collection is quite broad with something for everyone, ranging from a 1910 FN to the present, and across all makes. The emphasis is tilted toward racing motorcycles since Virgil and his son Jeff were involved in vintage motorcycle racing, both motocross and road racing.

Very Cool!
Can't wait to visit...

Supercharging does magical things, doesn't it? In 1950, 182mph might as well have been mach 1. That was just, damned fast!

182 mph is damn fast now!

There's several sound clips of the Black Lightning online. Look 'em up.

THANK YOU!!!

We lived in Santa Clarita form 1985 until 2008. Many rides with the California VTX RIDERS and the local Southern Cruisers group. We visited many Museums, but never this one.

We, the wife and I, road many rides to Santa Barbara, Solvang, Goleta, and of course Ojai. Still, we did not know about this one.

THANKS AGAIN!

Joe T.
