Lehman Trikes founder to be inducted into the Hall of Fame
March 04, 2009
Lehman Trikes is proud to announce that John Lehman, the founder of Lehman Trikes, has been
chosen as an inductee into the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum and Hall of Fame. John receives this
distinguished award for his principles, leadership, and charitable work, as well as the large
impact he has had on the motorcycling world with the creation and successful manufacturing of
today’s modern trike. He will be honored at the annual induction breakfast ceremony during the
Sturgis Rally on Wednesday, August 5, 2009 and will join the ranks of the many illustrious men
and women already inducted into the Hall of Fame.
The Sturgis Motorcycle Museum and Hall of Fame honors the men and women who have
dedicated much of their lives to improving, promoting and advancing the great sport and lifestyle
of motorcycling. “There couldn’t be a more humble man to receive this award” said Ken Hines,
Executive Vice President of Lehman Trikes, “we are extremely proud of John and his
accomplishments. He’s a kind-hearted guy and is respected throughout the motorcycle industry.”
John Lehman developed the first modern trike in 1984 for his wife, Linda, who was reluctant to
ride on two wheels with one of their children on the back. It wasn’t long before the orders came
pouring in and John’s idea became a business. Today, Lehman Trikes is publicly-traded and has
created a new industry of three-wheeled motorcycles in North America.
