My new CBR logo!

I was just chilling at work one day thinking about my helmet design, when I decided that I wanted a CBR 125 logo on it, but not Honda's. I wanted something simple and cool, with sharp lines and that was modeled off the 125. Once I figured out I wanted all that it was relatively easy to come up with a basic design.
I came up with this in about 5 minutes using paint.








After showing my buddy and girlfriend (who's 100x more creative than I am) I decided I needed someone who knew what they were doing to make this look the way I want it. From there I contacted a freelance designer on Odesk.com and told him what I wanted. I got this.









From there I consulted my buddy and girlfriend again and got two mixed opinions. One wanted 4 the other 2. Me? I just wanted something cool I could make stickers out of!
After the comments my creative girlfriend sketches up this.









I sent that to the designer and got this.









I picked number 2 then let my girl go to work! And this is the final out come!







Pretty sweet eh?!
Well I think so! I'll probably make stickers and give them away to anyone who'll take them. I'll also add this to my helmet design I'm working on.
If you look close, you can see the C B R with it. Ether that or Tron...
That's it! That's all the updates for now!


Until next time,

I was playing around with an app, Sketch me, or something and thought that some of these came out pretty cool. I thought, 'hey I'll post these for no one to see!' lol
Here you go! Enjoy!

Motorcycle Show!

I went to the international motorcycle show the other day in Toronto for the first time. I didn't know what to expect. I've been to the auto show every year and was thinking maybe it'll be like that, but it wasn't. It was unique to the motorcycle culture and not like the auto show at all. The show was awesome! There were bikes EVERY WHERE. Most were for sale and the rest were either custom builds or vintage bikes. There was gear for sale throughout the whole show and I managed to pick up a helmet, jacket and gloves. I got an icon black mat helmet, Tecknic jacket and Black Ash gloves. I spent a little over $300 for everything. Which I felt wasn't bad... I didn't have to pay to get in either! My girlfriends sister's boyfriend hooked me up with a pass. He and his crew were showing off some of their builds. They stunt locally and have a shop out of Mississauga. My jacket has snaps on the arms to make it tighter, vents and armour throughout and a removable liner inside. My helmet has a removable washable liner and removable shield. My gloves...they're gloves... I've attached photos of some bikes I saw, my gear and a stunt bike. There's a link to Stunters Inc site in the side bar as well.























There are more pics in my web album in the left.
