OUR STORY

saeng journey
face into the wind

This saeng journey represents my travels through time.  It all began in 1974 as a senior industrial design project at the Kansas City Art Institute.  I chose to design a fairing, encouraged by my instructor.  This decision led to a lifelong pursuit of aeronautical and product excellence.

The first step of this lifelong pursuit took five years, creating the saeng Pilot Fairing.  Numerous products followed, shaping an adventure that felt ingrained in my DNA.  My father’s adventurous spirit and love for motorcycles, which I inherited, influenced my journey.

A few years after graduating from KCAI, the first saeng fairing left a meager production line on the 1st of June, 1979, in Columbus, Nebraska.  The fairing shook the industry and led to today’s new line of instrument mounts and mirrors.  Looking back, I would be remiss if I didn’t voice my deep appreciation to two instructors, Harry Golding, my Physics instructor from Shimer College, and Michael Hartman, my Industrial Design instructor at KCAI, who affected my design philosophy immensely.
