Motorcycles will take center stage at a new art exhibit at the SURU Gallery in Los Angeles. The Celeritas exhibit is “where motorcycle road racing culture meets fine art.” The concept features a
Suzuki Hayabusa and more than a dozen helmets painted by artists and heavy hitters in the motorcycle industry, like Troy Lee and
Jesse James.
