David Mann (September 10, 1940 – September 11, 2004) (also known as "The Motorcycle Artist") was an American artist famous for his paintings of motorcycles and the biker culture. Most of his works have been for the motorcycle industry, however some of his independent masterpieces illustrate that his perception and visions of the future were not merely industry focussed, but also encompassed the greater aspects of humanity upon earth.

David Mann has influenced the motorcycle industry with an inspired vision of chopper creation. His art is a perception that has led the custom chopper design initiative. David's attention to detail started as he worked for an architectual firm in Florida. As a designer David developed into a full-fledged architectural renderer, learning careful detail, exacting dimension, and mechanical perspective. He also studied at the Kansas City Art Institute.

David Mann's turning point was when he discovered a new magazine with a liberal audience "Easyriders"! He took an enormous career risk and followed an employement listing in a small classified newspaper ad. Easyrider was the first full-fledged, lifestyle-related bike magazine. David Mann is most known for his world renoun centerfold pieces.

Mann's legacy and contribution to the art industry continues to elevate our minds as the perception in which we view his work evolves. The David Mann Legacy is currently conserved, promoted, and defended by his widow and life-long companion Jacquelyn Mann. Jackie's intentions are to allow Mann-Fans to appreciate his work and direction just as she shared in there relationship. David Mann and his work will eternally be loved, missed, and admired.
