In the course of years the collection of the LMM have attended such national and international events as Beaulieu Motorcycle World, TR30C's Beezumph rally, Queen's Golden Jubilee Parade, 'The Art of Motorcycle' in Rio de Janeiro, Paris's Bike Show and many other smaller events and meets.
The collection of the museum include: a past participant in the Pioneer Run - a 1902 Ormonde, a Austin 7 engine housed in a Norton frame; road bikes and racers from ABC to Zenith. Some machines which are not represented in other museums and a number of British machines can be seen in the London Motorcycle Museum.
