Cold weather Knuck riding

Better than no riding at all..just dont let the bike sit too long at a bar that 60 weight oil gets real thick fast.

STURGIS 2010 and Michael Lichter exhibit

I am honored to be apart of Michaels Sturgis Display again, to be in the mix with all these industry giants (Matt Olsen) is pretty cool..thanks Matt for the pics.

Pipes and Carb on "Strange Brew"

This bike is coming together nicely, it's true what they say bikes build themselves. I know naming bikes is gay but when you have three knucks it's easier to differentiate them by name. This one is called "Strange Brew"

STURGIS 2010 and Michael Lichter exhibit

I am honored to have two bikes in the show, one of the student built class bikes and one of my class project knuckleheads in the show

Here it is - the 10th annual "Motorcycles as Art" exhibition Michael curates each year was announced at the V-Twin Expo in Cincinnati Sunday morning so I can tell you all about it. It will again be held at the 6,500 square foot Lichter Exhibition Hall built last summer on the grounds of the Legendary Buffalo Chip, and like last year, there is no admission fee.

Basically, the exhibit will focus on the explosion of interest and the passion for custom motorcycles seen over the last 30-years. I titled it “Eternal Combustion- 30 in the Wind”, and it poses the question, “How is this passion passed on through time?” by displaying 30 recently built custom motorcycles by 15 pairs of builders tied together by family, respect, friendship or apprenticeship. On the walls, I will display my work (the first time in a number of years) to celebrate my 30th anniversary of attending bike week in Sturgis. The builder teams highlighted within the show include: Arlen Ness & Paul Yaffe, Carl & Matt Olsen, Dave & Jody Perewitz, Donnie Smith & Brian Klock, Eddie Trotta & Todd Silicato, Kevin Baas & his Kennedy High School Chopper Class, Gard Hollinger & Satya Kraus, James & Dave Kaye, Jerry & David Covington, Kirk Taylor & Brian Schimke, Roland Sands & Drake McGillroy, Ron Finch & Gary Maurer, Ron & Hunter Simms, and Sugarbear & Counts Customs.
