    Default CNC Plasma Cut Vintage Motorcycles

    I cut the following bikes from 11 gauge (1/8") steel with my home made CNC plasma table. I put as much detail into the 19" long figures as possible, keeping at least .150" between interior parts and lines.

    BSA Gold Star, Vincent Black Shadow, Matchless 500 single, Ariel Square four, Triumph Bonneville TT Special, Norton Commando, Indian Chief (USA), and early Triumph Thunderbird.

    The other 3 bike pictures are the Triumph Thunderbird, Indian, & Ariel with a little paint.

    I am not selling these. This is just for fun.

    Painted a couple of additional bikes:

    A page showing all the bikes can be found at the link below. I will add to it as I complete more bikes and paint them.

    Two more plasma-cut bikes:

    The first is a 1949 Panther Model 100 600cc single.
    The second is Clem Johnson's 96 c.i. Vincent drag bike "Barn Job."
