The Electric Revolution is one of Paul d’Orléans’ most beautifully curated exhibitions. Housed in the Peterson Museum, the exhibition displays a number of the most sublime designs in the two-wheeler world.

The Petersen Museum in Los Angeles, California, is the best place for electric bike enthusiasts. The museum displays the industry’s most unique and impressive electric motorcycles that will make your jaw drop and eyes widen. The exhibition titled ‘Electric Revolution’ is an absolute masterpiece.

Electric Revolution: A step into the future

Motorcycle historian and co-founder of the Motorcycle Arts Foundation Paul d’Orléans states that this is perhaps a revolution in the motorcycle industry. “We’re in a fascinating moment historically. There hasn’t been this much activity in the motorcycle sphere—with new manufacturers popping up—probably in a century. We’re in the thick of a total revolution in terms of design and technology,” he adds as per the RobbReport. The ‘Electric Revolution’ exhibit consists of 21 models that feature robust designs and power-train development. It features all ranges of motorcycles, including street bikes, dirt bikes and custom bikes. The exhibit has made its kick-start on April 6. It is guest curated by d’Orléans himself. His expertise can be seen in his other work. For instance, he also produced a stunning outcome in curating the museum’s “Custom Revolution” exhibit.

Impressive Designs

There are two models in the Electric Revolution that are worth mentioning, namely the Racer-X and Moto Undone. A magnificent design by Mark Atkinson, Racer-X carries a unique exterior as it looks like an X shape. and has impressive suspension and steering systems. The Moto Undone is rather futuristic and is literally a cuboid on wheels. It is a masterpiece by Joey Ruiter. “I’d like people to feel as excited about what’s happening with electric motorcycles as I am,” he states. “People tend to look at electric motorcycles as not quite ready for prime time, but I think that’s completely wrong at this point. The fastest production motorcycle in the world is electric and it is built in America.
