1958 MAS 175cc

MAS, or Motocicli Alberico Seiling, was named after its Bavarian-born but Italian by adoption, founder. Seiling began in 1920, as many did, as a manufacturer of a 125cc engine of German design mounted on a bicycle frame. Well received, it was eventually joined in 1925 by more recognizeable motorcycle designs of 150 and 175cc models and then a twin cylinder 500. Manufacture continued in to the late 1950s.
