Janus Motorcycles to Represent Indiana in Made in America Product Showcase at the White House 

Goshen, Indiana – On Monday, July 15, 2019, Janus Motorcycles will participate in the third annual Made in America Product Showcase at the White House.  

Companies from across the country will join President Donald J. Trump, Vice President Mike Pence, and members of the Administration to showcase their products. Janus Motorcycles will showcase three of their 229cc motorcycles during the event. Richard Worsham (co-founder), Devin Biek (co-founder), and Bruce Korenstra (partner), plan to represent the company. “We’re honored to represent our city and state, as well as the rich manufacturing heritage we’re a part of in northern Indiana,” Janus co-founder Devin Biek said. 

“We are excited to once again host businesses from all 50 states at the White House to highlight and celebrate American-made products,” a White House official said. “In today’s booming economy, President Trump and his Administration are proud to tout businesses that create jobs and support our local communities.”

Janus Motorcycles draws on the rich pool of manufacturing and fabrication shops in northern Indiana.

Guys, that’s impressive.   Janus has been hitting it out of the park consistently on several fronts…great motorcycles, great leadership, and in particular, great public relations.  These folks had the foresight to advertise here on the ExNotes website, they took a flyer on a fabulous Baja trip with us, they recently had our story about that trip in ADVMoto, they had a great article in the NY Times, and now, this.   Our good buddy Grant is doing a fantastic job, as is everyone at the Janus plant.  Our congratulations to Janus and our best wishes for continuing success!
