Old skool pinstriping...

[Mtbcoach]

Reaching out to see if anyone has any contact to do some pinstriping. I've looked via the internet and only found people that do the "body line" striping, I'm looking for some of the "Von Dutch" style.

The one I found in Raleigh was Simon's Speed shop, I've emailed twice, called and left msg once, no return.

Any references will be appreciated...

I'd ask around some motorcycle shops since I'm sure they can point you in the right direction. Lots of custom paint and striping done by some very artistic people on a good number of those motorcycles.

I've got a Fraternity Brother that has a pin-striping business, let me see what he says.

Quick follow up pics of the minor enhancements added. Found Zach Matthews in Wake Forest/N Raleigh, he fricken killed it...

I'll take some better shots when I get home to use my DSLR, just had to share some iPhone shots, the pinstriper killed it IMHO...

Very cool Jerry. Is there a protective coat over this? Like a clear coat over it?

Nope, he said I'd have to sand it off now that its cured...

Thanks guys, it really is very well done, the detail in the Von Dutch flying eye is crazy...

Gelände Sport? GS1200? Nice bike. I almost bought a Paris Dakar new in 89 - have regretted not doing that very much. The plan was to ride coast to coast - never happened. Maybe one day...

Funny, when you first posted this I was going to tell you to find out where the local vintage BMW guys get their stuff striped because all of the old air heads had free hand pinstrips on the tanks. I had a R90/6 and a R100/S

Had a great time taking it apart to the last spoke and putting it back together again. Still enjoy looking at the photos from that project.
