The other day I was musing on my blog about a modular vehicle and I used to examples of vehicles that took design to the outside edge. The Ford MA concept and the Confederate B91 Wraith. Just now I came across this site and this specific post on the whereabouts of J.T. Nesbitt. Interesting. I don’t like the term “thinking outside the box” because it smacks of MBA style nothingness. But its great to see designers approaching a motorcycle design from a whole different perspective.

JT & Dave – best of luck

hey, how much design inspiration have you gotten out of the IMME Motorcycle from the late 40′s for the Wraith & Hellcat?

It had the exhaust routed through the swingarm, arching backbone, very light weight, & pivoting front-end with single-sider

It seems to have been a bike that introduced many new & innovative concepts

“Art of the Motorcycle – Guggenheim” has a nice spread on it….

My apologies! Should have checked your site first. Nice digital work! Would have looked good featured here.

James…

Go look at the updates on the Ghost page… you wanted “professional”? what we do is sketch, draw, paint *then* move to digital… the problem with digital work from the beginning is cash outlay… it costs $$ to do it, and re-do it over and over. we burn thru some pencils ’round here!…

thanks for looking..
