Last year my wife and I crisscrossed America twice in order to chase down the stories surrounding some of the most historically significant motorcycles in existence, including bikes made famous by James Dean, Steve McQueen, Evel Knievel, Elvis, Kenny Roberts, and more. From Freddie Spencer's double championship bikes to the so-called "World's Fastest Indian," uncovering the locations of these motorcycles was an incredible adventure.
Writing and photographing the book not only allowed me to meet many of my childhood heroes, it also enabled me to delve into the mythology behind such motorcycling watersheds as Easy Rider and Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. I was honored to have Jay Leno write the foreword.
Legendary Motorcycles (compare prices) is available now.

It’s very good.
I wonder, do you publish it in Indonesia also? I’m Indonesian and don’t have many access to States.
How can I get it?
bimo,
Thanks for your interest. The book is being published internationally, but I’m not sure when translations will be available… in the meantime, you can find it online in the links in my blog post.
Best,
Basem
Would you please give us more information on the trip described in Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance?
Hi Luis,
I wrote a whole chapter about it– check out the book!
