I also recently thought about how suitable the name "lightning" is to Alta. It is both fast and electric.

Perfect.

How many T-Shirts would we need to sell to purchase Alta and get production going again?

Haha! I feel like this could be a modern remake of the movie “RAD”!

Excellent flick RAD was. I just got that movie on DVD, 240p quality and everything.

Yeah, can’t wait till Talia Shire lets someone do something with that film. I’ve watched over 30 times, yes, I admit it. When I was a kid me and my friends watched it like a ritual while we worked on our Mongoose’s (or should that be “Mongeese”).

I rode a Redline and then a Haro Master, my buddy had a PK Ripper. I even had a paper route job from 81-83. This movie could have been about my life, except the Hell Track part. Ironically the qualification races in the movie for Hell Track, that was mother of races for what we now know as MTB Enduro. Except on BMX BIkes.

I guess there are a good many of us who spent time on BMX bikes as kids. It’s a natural progression to end up on dirt bikes.

Don't forget BMX Bandits... another bike classic. But RAD was pretty awesome.

Just occurred to me, how hard would it be, to get some T-shirts made with this logo? Kind of an exclusive Alta Owners Forum only thing.

I think if you go to www.cafepress.com you can upload an image and get yourself a custom t-shirt easily. Their printing areas used to be small though, but that was over 10 years ago that I checked.

Alta was interested in this slogan and design, but I think we haven't seen it anywhere because "Lightning" is actually a competing motorcycle brand.

I just never got it it, that's why.
And we did get the authorization of the creator of the image to use it for t-shirts, fyi.

I just never got it it, that's why.

You mean you didn't like the slogan "Ride The Lightning" ?

I think it is a pretty rad visual, just like riding the fire-breathing dragon, or surfing the Tsunami.

 

[Judaslefourbe]

I meant to write: I never got to it.
Sorry.

 

[C5tor]

Perfect.

Sadly, I think Lightning Motorcycles might have some feedback on that concept. But, cool graphic!
