New Addition - 1937 Crocker
RARE!
April 9, 2023 - This is one of very few 1937 Crocker motorcycles remaining of approximately 60 or so built. This bike has just received a three-year restoration and is in perfect condition!
VALUABLE!
The value of Crocker motorcycles has increased dramatically in the last 15 years or so. Several have sold recently for more than $700,000.
COME AND VIEW!
The Crocker recently returned from a stint on the show circuit. Now you can view this beautiful bike in our museum!
Open for viewing! We look forward to seeing you!
Our Motorcycles
The St. Francis Motorcycle Museum houses more than 150 vintage motorcycles from more than 40 manufacturers including ACE, Cleveland, Jefferson, Emblem, Excelsior, Flanders, Harley-Davidson, Henderson, Indian, Marsh-Metz, Reading Standard, Pope, Thor, Yale, Feilbach Limited, Iver Johnson, and others.
Unique
The museum is pleased to exhibit one of only two known 1902 Orient motorcycles; the earliest manufacturer to use the term "motorcycle." We also house 30 motorcycles older than 1929 (several of which only five or less are known to exist.) The museum is a treasure of motorcycle history and memorabilia, and the collection is one of the finest to be found anywhere.
