(Knoxville, TN January 9, 2025) The American Historic Racing Motorcycle Association (AHRMA) proudly announces a new, long-term, multi-discipline sponsorship. Motobilia.com will be the title sponsor for the Road Race, Off-Road (including Motocross and Cross Country), and Dirt Track 2025 through 2027 competition seasons.
Renowned for its dedication to preserving motorcycle history through its extensive collection of motorcycles, memorabilia, and parts, the partnership with Motobilia.com, aligns perfectly with AHRMA’s mission to keep the past fast. This multi-year sponsorship marks a significant milestone for AHRMA as it continues to celebrate the vibrancy and legacy of historic motorcycle racing.
The AHRMA Road Racing Series presented by Motobilia.com will take place at some of the finest road racing venues in the United States starting each year in February and finishing each October at the Barber Vintage Festival in Birmingham, Alabama. Racers from across the country will compete against each other in a broad range of classes on a wide range of vintage and modern road race motorcycles.

The AHRMA National Motocross and Cross Country Series presented by Motobilia.com occurs across nine regions nationwide in three different categories: Vintage, Post Vintage, and Next Gen for both MX and Cross Country. The total number of races far surpasses 100.
The AHRMA Dirt Track Series presented by Motobilia.com will partner with several high-profile venues/sanctioning bodies which will add significant excitement to the 2025 AHRMA Dirt Track National Championship Series.
“Having a near 40-year history with AHRMA was certainly key to exploring this association, but it was not the deciding factor,” said Rick Doughty, Motobilia Executive Director, “Instead, it is the newfound philosophy within the organization from Dan May, his team, and the board of trustees, of an open-minded approach to the world of ‘vintage’ motorcycles.”

Doughty continued, “AHRMA recognizes the undeniable truth that new motorcycles one day become vintage and vintage motorcycles one day become antique. Navigating that ever-changing landscape will take considerable thought and planning to keep the sport vital. AHRMA is well positioned and structured to accomplish that goal. We are very much looking forward to the synergistic benefits that this joint effort represents. Not just for our organizations, but for the entire motorcycling community.”
“We are proud to have Motobilia as our Title Sponsor across the AHRMA racing disciplines,” said Daniel May, AHRMA Executive Director. “We look forward to the partnership as both AHRMA and Motobilia continue to expand the public awareness of vintage motorcycle racing and the rich history that comes along with it.”
“We are excited to support AHRMA over these three significant years,” said Doughty. “Our brand is all about celebrating the stories behind the machines, and sponsoring these disciplines allows us to bring that narrative to life in a very tangible way for the racing community.”
