MotoStars: Celebrities + Motorcycles

The Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum will debut a new exhibit, MotoStars: Celebrities + Motorcycles, in late March, 2008.

Curated by David Morris, the 8,000 square foot exhibit at the Pickerington, Ohio museum will feature memorabilia and motorcycles belonging to George Barris, Dan Gurney, Bob Lutz, and "Rush" drummer Neil Peart (pictured), among others. Movie motorcycles like the MV Agusta F4-SPR ridden by Will Smith in "I, Robot" will be on display, and custom creations including Austin Weiss's bikes built for will.i.am of The Black Eyed Peas and Carlos Mencia will also be part of the exhibit.

A dedication ceremony will be held at the museum on June 28, 2008, and will include celebrities featured in the exhibit, Motorcycle Hall of Famers, industry leaders, and enthusiasts. In the words of Executive Director Mark Mederski, "Whether you work in a factory, the corporate suite, or on a Hollywood set, you’ll always have a shared bond and make new friends if you spend time on two wheels. For that reason alone, we expect this to be our most popular exhibit ever."
