Description

In Aug. 1993, a group of engineers & enthusiasts were told to take a step that hadn't been done successfully for more than 40 years: Design & build a new Amer. motorcycle. An all-new engine had to be designed from the ground up. Chassis dimensions had to be determined. Fed. & state reg's. had to be met. Every piece had to be tested, evaluated, & fine-tuned. With endless hours of research, advice from top engineering minds, the financial support & marketing savvy of Polaris, & 5 years of hard work, a new machine emerged. This book brings the trials & tribulations of creating a new motorcycle to life, with a behind-the-scenes look at the design & development of the Victory V92C. Includes color photos, CAD drawings, & styling renditions.
