News: Motorcycle inspired by Technics SL-1200 turntable

Motorcycle product and apparel company Roland Sands Design came up with an incredible theme bike in affiliation with DJ and audio technology brand Technics. The custom Harley XL883N motorcycle is inspired by Technics SL-1200 turntables and the design is insane.

The designers took cues from Technics’ DH1-1200 headphones as well as the classic SL-1200MK2 Professional turntables to come up with the Technics Sportster. Sands: “The true link between the bike and the turntables came alive the first time we rotated the wheels. It was very cool to see the dots on the wheels shift direction as the wheels spun.”
