This restored Majestic looks as good as it did in 1929.Most people build motorcycles.But not radical designer Georges Roy. The art deco-inspired French engineer essentially sculpted them.
Unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in 1929, Roy’s most famous bike, the Majestic, had an automotive-type chassis at its core topped off by a curvaceous body made from pressed steel. The Majestic’s monocoque build made waves at the show, but it failed to resonate with customers. Through the motorcycle went into production, the magic was over by 1933.
It’s now estimated that there are fewer than 10 Majestics left in the world, one them being this red-and-white model that was recently restored by Serge Bueno of LA-based Heroes Motors.
