Harleys, Popes And Indian Chiefs

Motorcycles have become the ultimate icons of the 20th century purely because there is nothing more exciting or liberating as a motorcycle ride. With over 150 specially commissioned photographs, each model, chosen from over 50 international models, has a different story to tell and design to admire. Models such as the 1913 Silent Gray Fellow and the 1951 Indian Chief Roadmaster are accompanied with archive memorabilia which chart the evolution of their design. This celebratory volume includes a pictorial account of the restoration of a 1934 Ariel VG500 Deluxe carried out for a year, taking it from a rusty old wreck to gleaming dream machine.
