JT introduces the video journal series by discussing proportion and ergonomics of pre-war American motorcycles using one of his long-term projects to illustrate.
An analysis of JT’s 1953 Moto Guzzi Falcone and the great lessons that Carlo Guzzi offers about finding the source of design inspiration.
It was the worst of times… JT offers opinion and analysis of the worst motorcycle ever made, his 1977 Harley Davidson Electraglide. Behold! The Brown Lounge!
It was the best of times… JT explains the peak year for Harley Davidson with his 1994 FXLR. A benchmark for our project when it comes to power delivery, but not much else.
Any discussion of successful air-cooled 4-cylinder motorcycle platforms must include the iconic and long-lived Kawasaki Z series. An astounding 32 years in production, and this one is special.
Urkel Rain! Even the humble Honda CM400A has lessons for us about accessibility. Have a look at this one before the transformation into a replica of the motorcycle that Prince rode in Purple Rain.
JT’s most recent project, the Curtiss One, is an exceptional handling motorcycle. Ergonomics and proportion are great as well. Can lessons learned from building an EV translate back into an ICE platform?
The Wraith certainly made an impression when revealed to the public twenty years ago, and here she is, back in New Orleans for a re-commission. JT addresses the history, design philosophy, and plans for this very special motorcycle.
Any discussion of New Orleans based motorcycle design must include Simplex and the genius behind this innovative little motorcycle – Joseph Treen. There is more to this story than expected.
Considered by many to be the best of the American 4-cylinder motorcycles. We take the Video Journal out of the studio and to the garage of Bryan Bossier to get a closer look at the 1929 Cleveland Tornado and WOW, what a machine!
