About me

Gender Male
Industry Education
Occupation lead instructor
Introduction Started working on mechanical things too young to remember. I built my first engine at 14. It still runs today. I built my first bike from scratch at 17. It was not so lucky. I prototyped my first engine at 21. It ran poorly, but it did run. I spent years restoring and building cars. My attention turned to bikes many years ago. I have built bikes and guns ever since in my restoration shop. I produce fifteen or so parts for the industry of my own invention. I have restored things from 38 Knuckles to Indian warriors, Yale to Peugeot, Vespa to NSU, BMW to Ducati. Currently I am making a few cafe bikes from airhead BMWs. I even have a Honda Benley on the table. Over thirty years of experience building machines. Thats experience, no formal training. In 2008 I took a job at Wyotech as an instructor and the head examiner. I have always maintained a restoration shop and have recently started the KNIGHT SCHOOL to teach the art of the motorcycle.
