A Pair of Knuckleheads - Fine Motorcycle Art

A pair of Knuckleheads

Billy is a UK based artist who does detailed drawings related to dancing and motorcycles… strange combination. Of interest to us is the limited edition print of a pair of Harley-Davidson Knuckleheads. It takes Billy an hour to draw one inch of detail. The print is of a 1946 and a 1947 Harley Knucklehead and is titled ‘A Pair of Knuckleheads’. Each of the 250 limited edition 16″ x 12″ prints are $35 including free shipping from England. Billy will give away the original pencil art worth $1600 to one of the print buyers when the edition sells out. I think I’m going to buy one just to get a chance at winning the orginal. 1 out of 250 is a pretty good chance of winning this valuable artwork.

Who are Motorcyclists?

Motorcyclists come in all different shapes, sizes, colors, and creeds.  There are men and women, young and old.  There are those who were born into a motorcycling family, and those who came upon it on thier own.  One might say that Harley owners all have lots of “disposable income” in order to be able to afford such an expensive luxury, but I have met many a biker for whom that is completely not the case.  A motorcyclist is a motorcyclist deep in the soul, and when that is the case they will make whatever sacrifices are needed in order to feed the need to have their knees in the breeze.

Right here in our moto-blogger community it is evident that motorcyclists come from all different levels of education and many kinds of occupations, such as those listed below:

  • Annuities company employee
  • Assembler of scientific measuring devices
  • Car salesman
  • Coffee shop owner
  • Dental hygienist
  • Interactive art director/web designer
  • Insurance adjuster
  • Motorcycle safety instructor
  • Motorcycle shop owner
  • Photojournalist
  • Plumber
  • Printing Estimator & Purchasing manager
  • Purchasing manager
  • Restaurant server 
  • Teacher - 5th grade
  • Teacher - high school math
  • Truck driver
  • Vehicle test engineer

If I was a single guy the first $9.95 I made each month would go toward a membership at FastDates.com where members have access to the most beautiful calendar pin up models in the world. Fast Dates publishes the famous Iron & Lace, Fast Dates and Garage Girls calendars.

Iron & Lace 2010 Calendar

Fast Dates is the brain child of Jim Gianatsis and Gianatsis Design Associates. Although Gianatsis Design offers a slew of marketing services the specialty is definitely motorcycle pin up girl calendars of the highest quality. The FastDates.com Calendar Kittens are some of the world’s most beautiful celebrity models, actresses, beauty pageant winners, centerfolds and adult film stars who have also appeared in Maxim, GQ, Playboy, Penthouse and Perfect 10 magazines. Included in a Fast Dates membership is access to thousands of large downloadable images of your favorite calendar models in sexy revealing pictures that couldn’t be put in the calendars!

Jim knows hot chicks and bikes… but who cares about bikes? With your Fast Dates membership you also get access to the Paddock Garage for sportbike and American V-Twin tuning and suspension tips from top builders and factory race teams. Editor, Pro Racer, Test Engineer and photographer Jim Gianatsis has helped develop factory racebikes and set up the superbikes of National Champions including Wes Coley, Eddie Lawson and Wayne Rainey. Jim is one of the few motojournalists with direct access to top factory race teams. In Paddock Garage, Jim explains the theory of bike handling, suspension tuning, and engine performance modifications. He shows you how to correct any shortcomings or problems with a particular sportbike, and gives you the best ways to improve them. That’s boring… let’s get back to the half naked hot babes posing with outrageous customs.
