It all begins with the Vetter High Mileage Streamlined Fairing Kit!
Twenty years ago, Masakadu "Matsu" Matsuzawa officially got 477 mpg in the 1985 Craig Vetter Fuel Economy Contest. He used this fairing.

"Motorcycle Design" upcoming book by Craig Vetter
I have been asked to write a book on motorcycle design. I am focussing on the bikes and their designers meaningful to Americans from WW2 to present with emphasis on the 60s-70s. Scheduled availability is July, 2006. Go to: Design Book for a peek.
If you have a particular question about motorcycle design, send me a note. We'll post it here and find the answer.

I want this to be a great book.

Is this the world's first automatic Harley powered machine?
The Bronson Bag is finally here!

Good looking Cruiser luggage in a very handy location. From my brother, Bruce. Now being shown for the first time at Daytona 2005.
