Stories of motorcycle design through the eyes of a motorcycle designer

"The design philosophy expressed by Craig was very heady stuff, and surely way beyond the daily thought processes of 99% of the readers. But, I have always felt that a magazine should not write to its readership. It should always right a bit above its readership, challenge them, and urge them to higher levels of thinking and understanding. I'm not sure anyone is doing it today."
Ed Youngblood, 2004 |

From time to time, I will post some chapters or portions of chapters from the book I am writing about motorcycle design. If I ever complete it, you will have some idea of what you will be getting. If I do not ever publish it, well, at least you were able to read some of it here. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Want to do fun stuff like you see here? You just might want to become a "Product Designer". Check out this newly released book by my friend, Bruce Hannah. He explains what design is and offers a sample of the best design schools. I wish I had seen a book like this when I was high school.
