Check out this beautiful new Gryffin 250 we created.
Featuring our new 2024 option: feather logo in silver, flat black paint, and a double cream-and-maroon pinstripe. See some of that awesome custom painted graphics and red grips & seat.

Some beautiful 250s being wrapped up in the shop… what’s yours going to look like? Let us know in the comments.

We believe that that past is a great resource for today’s motorcycle designs. Motorcycles are a perfect canvas for explorations of form and function, and there is a rich centuries-long tradition of motorcycle designs that aim to strike the perfect balance between the two.
We are covered in snow here in Goshen, so it felt fitting to post a photo of this icy blue Halcyon. Raise your hand if this is your favorite Janus color? ❄️

a couple of days ago, you might have wondered... "How do I get one?"
Well. Here you go. We have the newest aesthetic upgrades for your Janus ready to order today, for 2024:
1) Lark Silver standard color
2) Primary color-match
3) Feather logo on 250s
Overheard on last nights' Ramblestream (actual Janus owner): "I spent 14 years as a H-D service manager... rode everything the motor company built including owning to Buells. My Halcyon 450 is the pure essence of motorcycling that H-D forgot about!"
This cream halcyon 450 is expertly designed with a gold and black double pin. Grab yours by the end of the year and save 40% on all options! Build one here:

Janus riders:
Feel good riding.
Feel in control.
Feel light and free and easy.
Feel like they've got nothing to prove.
Feel like they've got a one-of-one (not a one-of-a-million).
We ride for all sorts of reasons that aren't entirely practical.
It's a romantic endeavor.
Simple & classic. This Gryffin 250 will be a low-key show-stealer when it goes home to its owner for a lifetime of rambles!

Halcyon Days are Here Again!
Celebrate your creativity and build a one-of-a-kind time machine. In honor of our favorite inland seas (the Great Lakes!)… we’re excited to officially announce our newest color: Inland Seafoam Green. The first batch of 4…
You don't need a giant bike with a spaceship's worth of features to get your knees in the breeze and enjoy a wonderful riding experience... in fact, we think all that "baggage" actually gets in the way of it.
Whether we’re barbecuing, yard-working, spending time with family, or taking a joy ride (our favorite holiday activity)... we’re thankful for the brave men and women whose sacrifice helped ensure we could enjoy a beautiful Memorial Day holiday.

Merry Christmas to all! We wish you a day of family, food, joy, and for the brave (or climatologically fortunate), a smile-worthy ramble on a Janus Motorcycle. The showroom is closed today and tomorrow. We will be open 10-4 Wednesday through Friday!
We've built over 1500 beautiful bikes here, and each one is unique and distinct, and exists to be enjoyed and appreciated.
The simple appreciation of beauty is one of our great aims as humans. You need no justification.

While we're wringing the you-know-what out of our Gryffin 450 prototype (and selling the first batch of them!), we're still making some really, really nice looking Halcyons.
Case in point:
Each Janus Motorcycle is an original, not a reprint or a reproduction. Each is numbered individually; formed one at a time; painted one at a time.
A motorcycle is a functional machine, but its form can engender an emotional connection in ways impossibl…
Alright. This bike rocks. Electric pinks on black and silver. Headed to the amazing folks at the Iron Goddess Motorcycle show. Go check it out at AZ bike week!
The pinstripe makes me remember gazing into a jukebox at our local Alley Oops drive in with Chuck Berry queued up

Wrenches are wrenching in the Janus shop again! Our production team is masked up and on a strict no-high-five, no-chest-bump, no-side-hug-while-singing-Don-McLean (etc.) policy... but we are back to building bikes!
THe Halcyon 250 honors designs from American motorbiking’s golden age. A lean and long tank design, full-grain saddle seat, leading-link front suspension, and a powerful 250cc single-cylinder engine create a sense of connection with the motorcycle and road.
Another round of Janus owner photos coming your way! We look forward to seeing these photos every week.
Our owners clocked in a lot of miles over the weekend... enjoying empty roads, sunshine, and even getting some essential groceries loaded to the back of a Halcyon!
Our Gryffin 250 is made for thrilling everyday escapes, on-road and off. This latest build comes fitted with the Adventure Rack & Roll Top Pannier plus the Corn Detasselers (some might call them “handle bar covers.”) A very sharp combo of colors and upgrades!

A simple and beautiful Halcyon 250 Origin in cream. Don't miss out on rambling this summer!
What is rambling? It's the kind of riding that made us fall in love with motorcycles in the first place. It's the kind of riding that heavy, high-powered, tech-laden modern bikes forgot.
Your Christmas tree may still be up...
BUT—we say it every year (because it's true). We can only make so many hand-made motorcycles so fast. And it happens every year. One nice day and the lead time leaps.

A great day indeed. Have a wonderful weekend friends!
One of the chief pleasures of working with the team at Janus is seeing real things get designed, debated, decided, cut, welded, pounded, tested, muddied, wrung out, and then refined and made show-room beautiful by some of the grittiest, most talented craftspeople you can imagine.
Hop on one of our in-stock inventory 250s! Our awesome Black Friday deal ($300 + 20% off all options) applies to these beauties, too. Ride home in time for Christmas... and park one of these time machines under your Christmas tree!
