Description
The Black Douglas Motorcycle Co. Here at The Black Douglas Motorcycle Company we believe that steel is more beautiful than plastic and that simplicity is more appealing than complexity
We are motorcycle riders and we have learned over the years that speed does not necessarily mean fun. We are actually convinced that modern rhythms force us to live at an unnatural pace, and that riding a motorcycle should be a break, not a continuation of the stressful moments of our days.
We believe that a motorcycle should make you smile from the very moment you open your garage door and see your machine for the first time that day, when you sit on it, when you first start the engine
And if you are like us, if you still have the child in you... you probably like to watch you own reflection on a shop window... while you wait for the green light, sitting on your motorcycle...
With these thoughts in our minds we design and build your bike. Your Black Douglas.
