I am a hand engraver so I am engraving a few parts on my bike. I did these chrome plated steel pieces that are on the head and then put a clear powder coat on them. I had no clue that chrome was so hard. I am thinking that the side cases will be a lot easier and I do something with more detail.

Beautiful work Zook! You have a great hand. Nothing like adding your own touch.

Very nice work!!!  I'm not so much into the "650" part, but I do like the old school detail work you've done.  Not overly done like a lot of "Harley" engravings you see out there.   I think it's pretty cool and more or less forgotten art form in motorcycle building.


One of my favorites,  the SR400 BSR has "the wheel rims and tank and oil caps have been treated to elegant filigree-style engraving."




Portside builds pretty cool old school choppers and they use some nice engravings.

Well, not to nitpick, but it Is a 652 cc.

But you probably don't have an eraser for that....

Just jerking your chain.
That's good work.

One of the reasons I Posted it was to see if anybody would like some work done. My business is called Wade Designs. I do hand engraving for the jewelry trade. Monograms, lettering and decorative work on jewelry. I can even make you a great deal on a diamond if your silly enough to be getting engaged. I do some big trophies and pitchers so it not much of a stretch to do motorcycle parts.
I didn’t realize it was a 652. Too late now. Technically it is a S40 Boulivard but I am going to engrave Savage on the side cases.
And I can do gold plating and powder coating too.

Spectacular work. Thanks for sharing!

It even looks good mounted on the tank upside down!

That looks great!
