About Me

I love the biker life style and have been riding for more than 40 years. Took a few years off here and there but have ridden hard since 1994.

I've owned five antique Harley's and one 1948 Indian Chief.
My current ride is a 2001 Road King.
I'm the President of Chrome Dome Motorcycle Products, established in 2006. You can read about the business below.
After working in a factory for 30 years, an idea popped into my head and the rest is history.
I live and breathe this business with half owner and artist in residence John Ketner.
He's the man with the hands. He can sculpt anything and make my jaw drop every time I see one of his new creations.Without him there would be no CDMP.
I have been a blues musician for 30 plus years playing blues Harp, slide guitar and lead vocals. I quit playing bar gigs in 1996 and only jam with a few bands in the area when I get horny to play.
My wife Dee is a dynomite tattoo artist and has more tallent in her little finger than I have in my whole body.
We enjoy hauling our bikes to our winter shack in Arizona during the cold season. Our goal is to be able to go there from January through April. We're working hard on that.
I'm easy to get along with as long as you don't lie, cheat or steal from me...and aren't obnoxious or self centered.
To be continued.

Anyone for a game of 8 ball?

CHROME DOME MOTORCYCLE PRODUCTS is all about two guys displaying the true grit it takes to brain storm dynamite ideas and making them happen. This is not just a fun thing to have for a hobby, it's a true passion.Our products are first sculpted from clay by John Ketner one of the most artistic guys in the business. John is also 1/2 owner of Chrome Dome Motorcycle Products, Inc. Is there any reason to believe he will accept anything less than perfect? I don't think so! He's way too proud of his work to turn out anything but drop dead gorgeous pieces of art.We offer several models with several options because we know what you our customers want. You want to be different, you want to make a statement and you want a choice. That's exactly what we are giving you. We give you the icing on the cake...the finishing touch...the "where in the hell did you get that" look.We will introduce each work of art in a fashion that no aftermarket company ever has. You can typically find most of your motorcycle accessories browsing through just about any aftermarket web site. What you won't find is an intense hand sculpted work of art that will beautify and personalize your motorcycle.There are numerous product ideas currently sprawled across our drawing table here at CDMP.Like any great work of art, it all comes in time and we will be introducing them as each part is perfected to the show quality that you, our customers deserve.Check out our pic's. If you are interested you can get detailed info and better pics at our website. Yep...go to http://www.chromedomemotorcycleproducts.com
