Art Deco 1930 KJ Henderson Custom Motorcycle

“Originally built by O. Ray Courtney in 1936 based on a 1930 K.J Henderson, restored by Frank Westfall from Syracuse, NY”. Henderson produced 4-cylinder motorcycles from 1912 until 1931. They were the largest and fastest motorcycles of their time, and appealed to sport riders and police departments. Police favored them for traffic patrol because they were faster than anything on the roads. Henderson was a Chicago brand and one of the American ‘Big Three‘ (with Harley-Davidson and Indian). The company began during the golden age of motorcycling, and ended during the Great Depression.
