Classic Motorcycle Mecca is the southern hemisphere’s leading classic motorcycle collection, widely regarded to be a world-class display comprising of more than 300 motorcycles and motorcycle related artwork from around the world. Given Transport World's natural enthusiasm for wheels and the region’s celebrated obsession with motorcycles, it presented an opportunity of a lifetime when it became available, and was purchased by Transport World in 2016. It is situated in two restored Category 2 heritage buildings within central Invercargill where you will find brands such as AJS, Ariel, BMW, Brough Superior, Harley Davidson, Henderson, Indian and Matchless and Rudge and it also houses Kickstart Cafe. Open 10am to 5pm daily (last entry 4pm, excluding Christmas Day and Boxing Day).

One man’s passion started it all. Invercargill businessman Bill Richardson loved trucks: so much so, he made them both his life’s work and his hobby. Southern tourism hub Transport World began after Bill’s daughter, Joc O’Donnell, decided to open his private collection to the public in late 2015 as Bill Richardson Transport World. The largest private collection of its type in the world, Bill Richardson Transport World is home to more than 300 vehicles, a wearable arts collection, children’s play zones, The Grille cafe and themed bathrooms fast becoming as famous as our vehicles. There is something for everyone. Open 10am to 5pm daily (last entry 4pm, excluding Christmas Day and Boxing Day).
