Classic & Vintage Motorcycle Art

Classic motorcycles carry their whole era in their shape: the sprung saddle, the exposed pushrods, the pinstriped tank. Vintage motorbike art usually means faded reproductions of old advertising - we make originals instead, drawn with the same care the machines were built with, and none of the licensing baggage of real marque artwork.

The Classic Single - Study honours the bikes that taught Britain to ride: a 1950s-style thumper drawn to plan, exploded engine inset and all. The Race Day posters carry the same period feel at full colour, and Paddock Morning belongs next to any restoration bench.

If there is a restored classic in your garage - or your father's - the Paint Shop draws that machine, oil-painting or blueprint style, from a single photo with a free preview. It is the definitive gift for a dad who rides. Related: cafe racer, tourer.

Questions

Do you reproduce vintage marque posters?
No - real marque artwork is licensed property and most reproductions are poor scans anyway. Everything here is original art in the period spirit.
What suits a restored classic?
The blueprint style from the Paint Shop - your actual machine drawn to plan - or the oil-painting style for the mantelpiece. Preview both free from one photo.
