***PLEASE READ***
Our founder and friend, Stan Engdahl, passed away November 12. After a brief closure, the museum is once again open Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., and Sundays, 1:00 - 5:00 p.m. with Lavona Endahl as tour guide.
The Kansas Motorcycle Museum is home to over
100 vintage and rare motorcycles of all various
makes and models. It also has numerous
motorcycle racing memorabilia, photos, posters,
and much, much more!
The museum was started in 2004 as a local
tribute to Marquette's own motorcycle
racing legend and FIVE TIME National Racing
Champion, "Stan the Man" Engdahl.
Stan and his wife, LaVona, are curators for the
Museum and they are also two of the
Museum's biggest advocates. Stan's
favorite past time is sharing his stories of
motorcycle racing with those who visit the
Museum each day. While he takes you on the
"grand tour" you'll have the
unique opportunity to view over 600 trophies
Stan won during his motorcycle racing career,
which spanned six decades from the 1940's
to the 1990's. His legendary Harley
Davidson custom-built racing motorcycle and
many other racing memorabilia are also on
display. It's a unique experience you
don't want to miss!
The Kansas Motorcycle Museum is located on
the southeast corner of Washington (the main
drag) and Third Street in downtown Marquette,
KS. It is open year round, Monday through
Saturday, 10 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., and Sundays,
1:00 - 5:00 p.m. The Museum is also open most
