Motom Club is the go-to independent resource for anyone who wants to truly understand this Italian brand. Practical guides, technical information, and documentation—for those who have found, inherited, or rediscovered a Motom.
The Motom was manufactured in Milan from 1947 to around 1970. Over the course of nearly 25 years of production, more than 30 different models were released: mopeds, light motorcycles, and sport versions. It was one of the few Italian mopeds with a 48cc 4-stroke engine produced in series for over two decades, with hundreds of thousands of units built. Today, they are vintage motorcycles in every sense of the word, sought after by the most discerning collectors and still on the road. This website brings together everything you need to know: history, models, maintenance, market value, and original technical documentation.
