Their first success came at the 1967 24 Hours of Montjuich on the streets of Barcelona.
The Ossa firm was a strong supporter of all forms of motorcycle sport including: road racing, motocross, enduro and observed trials. In the United States and Canada, off-road motorcycling – and particularly the newly imported sport of motocross to which the light-weight and powerful Ossa was well suited – enjoyed a surging popularity. The original Ossa company got its start in 1924 making movie projectors for its home market in Spain. After World War II, Ossa, like several other manufacturers from BSA to Harley-Davidson to Yamaha, began producing two-stroke engined motorcycles, with their first mass produced model being introduced in 1949. Ossa reached its highest production levels in the motorcycle boom of the 1960s, exporting large numbers of exports to other European countries, but also significantly, to North American markets.
