Hand-lettered signs, helmets, parts, motorcycles, and all sorts of things I'm interested in.

Coca Cola Button Sign Completed
And here is the finished sign, in the truck and ready to be delivered. Matching the paint was extremely tricky and took some time, but both the customer and I were happy with the results, thank God!
Coca Cola Button Sign: the Beginning of the Project
I began the repair process on this 4' Coca-Cola button sign. It was in pretty good shape, except for several chips and dents that the owner wanted filled and repainted. This is a Canadian button sign from the early 1950's.

My SV650 With Napoleon Bar End Mirrors
Here is my SV650, complete with a fresh set of Napoleon bar end mirrors. What a difference these make, not only to the look of the bike but to the ability to see what's behind you. They offer an excellent field of vision and you don't have to continually move your arms to see into them, like the stock ones required.

Charley Boorman and Russ Malkin Visit
As part of their Extreme Frontiers visit to Canada, Charley Boorman and Russ Malkin (of Long Way Round, Long Way Down, and Race to Dakar fame) stopped by a Vancouver BMW dealership for a meet and greet session. I like their shows, and have watched them all, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to see them in person. Desmo Rob and I made the trek downtown and took some pictures and said hello to Russ.

Piva Moto Sign
I created this sign for a friend's birthday. There was a Piva motorcycle company in Italy in the 1920's, but I never found any logos or advertising from the company. I made up the logo myself, using the Vespa and Pope logos as inspirations.

1970's Style Honda Chopper
This could've been put together in the 70's; if not, it sure looks like a 70's chopper. Nicely done.
