Important information for minors

British-born Glynn Kerr is a designer who specialized in the motorcycle industry for nearly 40 years. A graduate of Coventry University's Transport Design course, he worked briefly for TVR Sports Cars in the UK before moving to Munich to join BMW as an exterior car designer in 1982. Two years later, he transferred to the motorcycle division, since when he worked exclusively with bikes.

From 1987-90 he was Chief Designer with Amsterdam-based Global Design (now GK Design Europe), responsible for Yamaha's European operations. Here, he penned such models the TDM 850 and TDR 125, while contributing to projects as varied as the GTS, Superténéré, and BW's scooter.

As an independent consultant, he worked with a large majority of the world's top motorcycle manufacturers, including Ducati, Honda, Triumph, Aprilia, Harley-Davidson, Kymco and Kawasaki. For nearly two decades, he was also senior consultant to Bajaj in India, helping the company transform the market for smaller-capacity domestic models such as the highly successful Pulsar. As well as commissions from the major producers, Glynn worked with smaller enterprises and start-up companies, creating the Midual Roadster, the Boxer 654 Scrambler, VB1 and B2, Voxan Scrambler, the Fischer MRX, and more recently, the street version of the 218mph Lightning electric land speed record holder.

In addition to his design activities, Glynn was lecturer at the Art Center College of Design - Europe, and co-founder and President of the Motorcycle Design Association. He is perhaps best known as a regular columnist, and for his many 'artist's impressions' published in motorcycle magazines worldwide. Glynn is now retired and lives in Northern California.
