The first motorcycle space at the world famous Concorso d’Eleganza, Villa d’Este on Italy’s Lake Como, was open over the weekend.
We gave you the full list of Villa d’Este vintage bikes, but here are some pics and the winner of the Best in Show.
The Pierce Four was awarded the BMW Group trophy for Best of Show.
The model was originally inspired by the F.
N Belgium bikes, and the Pierce American model has a four-cylinder engine with 4 hp and a top speed of 97 km/hr.
The Pierce-Arrow Motor Car Company built cars at Buffalo/New York, but the son of the owner, Percy Pierce, was interested in building bikes as well.
The first American four-cylinder model was the result and it was based on the 1909 F.
N.
model, but with chassis upgrades.
The use of three robust tubes was an important innovation at the time, and in 1910 a two-speed transmission was added.
Production stopped in 1913.
