Pretty excited to have my Yamaha SR400 in the @ogmotoshow this Saturday from 12pm-8pm in the Los Angeles Arts District. My husband @jkalning will also have two of his own bikes in the show that day if you’d like to see what he does in the shadows ‍♀️. Also, on Friday the 17th I’ll be listing new work and merch to my big cartel at 12pm PST so mark your calendar or set an alarm if you’ve been wanting to own a smaller piece of original artwork ⏰ Scroll through to see the details of the bike, the before and after and a video through DTLA and the arts district during lockdown.
————————————————————
From July 2020: A little over three years ago, I had an undying obsession to build a cafe racer. After extensive research, Pinterest vision boards and mock up drawings, I found the perfect bike on Craigslist to transform… a Yamaha SR400. This is the history of the bike. The first girl who bought it broke her ankle immediately after going on her first ride, the second buyer was a father who wanted his teenage daughter to learn to ride a motorcycle. It’s sad, she sat on it but was too afraid to ride. When I found the listing, it had 8 total miles on it. That it had an all female history was cool. Despite the sadness and disappointment it held in its bones, I decided to give it a better ending. Because of these girls, I pretty much bought a brand new bike for a great price and could finally get started on my vision. For the last 3 yrs, me and my husband @jkalning have slowly been building it up together. My go to girl for custom leather @fohrmaster helped me realize the tank and side bags. The guts were out for a while, but it’s pretty much complete and I was finally able to ride it these last two weeks. This is what it ultimately became. Scroll through to see details and the final before and after at the end.
