A trip down memory lane while at Sturgis inspires Senior to build a tribute to biker legend and artist (and one of Senior's personal heroes) David Mann.
Now the guys we're writing about in this issue are not your weekend warriors who buy a motorcycle off the showroom floor, pay out the nose for name-brand accessories and need to get home before 10 p.m. so the sitter can brush her braces. July's cover story deals with those bikers who first came to the public eye in the '60s and '70s when they passed through town and made the quiet townfolk close their eyes and tremble with fear until the noise passed. Pure outlaws. Guys that build chopper bikes, ride them hard and party even harder. No, your mother wouldn’t approve of them … although, your sister might.
David Mann is widely considered the biker world's artist-in-residence.
David's depictions of the biker lifestyle have, at times, been the most entertaining images in Easyriders magazine. We have always had David Mann's Easyriders centerfolds and posters adorning our shop, and I don't think I've ever been in a real custom motorcycle shop where I haven't seen at least one.
The theme honors a painting by renowned biker-painter David Mann titled "Brothers in the Wind," which captures a high-ballin' 18-wheeler and a Harley rider thundering down the highway side-by-side.
Motorcycle memorabilia was plastered throughout Trader's, with Easyriders pinups, a mural- sized David Mann painting, tools, wrenches, and scooter parts ...
For this build, he wanted to do something in the David Mann style, which includes tall bars and clean yet classic design elements.
DOWN: To ill health, for cutting short the life of David Mann, prolific centerspread artist for Easyriders magazine. Often called the 'Biker's Norman Rockwell,' Mann, 64, was known for his folksy depictions of the chopper lifestyle. Before his death last September, he was honored with a retrospective at the Journey Museum during the Sturgis Rally and was named to the Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum. Man's ashes will be interred in a Sportster XLCH gas tank painted with his trademark 'David Mann Red'
We would showcase the old chop from 1971 alongside the new one from 2001 to show the world 30 years of Denver's Choppers and 30 years of Easyriders. I had the late David Mann, a world-famous motorcycle lifestyle artist, create a painting of the two bikes blasting down a stretch of desert road side by side as a centerspread and as the image that would launch the magazine into another 30 years.

Among the most stereotyped characters ever to appear on the world stage is The Biker. [...] He is the actor recently portrayed in a painting titled The Brotherhood on a gold-trimmed porcelain collector plate in which our chopper-riding hero, lightning shearing the dark sky behind, is watched over by his legendary predecessors: a mountain man, a Viking, a medieval knight, a pirate, and a cowboy, all looking suspiciously just like the biker. A cooler appreciation for history would yield proof that these archetypes actually share little, and hardly the same mustache, but when it comes to biking it's hard to keep a good bromide down.
Seminal biker imagery from the research period (1950–1975) includes the highly colourful artwork of the American graphic artist (and lifelong biker), David Mann (Osgerby 2005: 81). Mann’s biker renderings were published in Easy Rider magazine from 1971, following some earlier art work Mann did for the legendary custom car creator, Ed ‘Big Daddy’ Roth, who started the first American Chopper magazine in 1967 (Osgerby 2005: 80-1, 93). Mann’s paintings set ‘outlaw’ Harley chopper motorcycles against surreal backgrounds, and distorted skylines, colourful images that celebrated the chopper motorcycle and the freedom of the open road (Osgerby 2005: 81). Many of his images captured the ‘Easyrider’ ethos – speed, the open road, long flowing hair – freedom. I can recall (and my participants confirm) that David Mann posters were often found displayed on ‘outlaw’ clubhouse walls in New Zealand during the 70s and 80s, and are often found in bikers' bedrooms today

In 1963 the 'Hollywood Run' and 1948 Customized Harley-Davidson pieces accompanied David to the Kansas City Car Show. There, Ed 'Big Daddy' Roth, car/bike customizer and publisher of Chopper magazine, bought the 'Hollywood Run' painting for $85.00. This was the start of Mann's career. In the years that followed, David painted 10 more paintings for Roth.

The David Mann tribute takes on new meaning for Paul Sr. upon learning that David Mann passed away. [...] Things look up when Paul gets the idea to have an artist make a painting of the completed bike in David Mann's style, and run off three-thousand prints to be auctioned off to help pay for David Mann's hospital bills.
