Motorcycle design is a term that conjures up many images to different people. To the majority North Americans, designing a motorcycle suggests a garage where several enthusiasts resembling the hit TV show Orange County Choppers assemble bikes based on the Harley Davidson model, with acres of chromed after market parts and hand lacquered custom paint jobs.To many others no thought is given at all to how the shapes of the bikes on the street came into being. The reality is that the major motorcycle manufacturers employ professional designers and serious technology the same way as in the car industry does, even if the final product is so different.

Morgan to reveal new 2+2 coupe in 2010

A classic car show seems like a fitting place to launch a new Morgan, and that’s exactly what visitors to this year’s Pebble Beach event will be treated to.

Morgan’s teaser pic suggests that the wings have been radically reshaped too.

Auctions America held a successful rookie effort at the former Kruse Auction Park in Auburn.
