Hi Mark,

In that case my advise is first learn the basics of hand engraving by reading up from books till you are able to engrave a few simple eg.letters or designs,ie The Art of Hand Engraving .

You could see some videos here;

There is even more here :

Look it up time permitting and the different ways ;

Then move up to air assisted gravers ,

The ideal airgraver for motor bikes would be the "Nitro G20.

All the Best
