Description

Without a doubt, this was the most popular bike at Alberta motorcycle shows in 2025. The creativity and skillful engraving of Michelangelo Donato is on full display on this Harley-Davidson Sportster build. While the Sportster is incredibly exotic, which may suggest it is a trailer queen, nothing could be further from the truth. Michelangelo rides this showpiece to events, including several trips from Edmonton to Calgary.

You’ll find some ride video at the beginning and conclusion of this video. I want to acknowledge the assistance and express my appreciation to Patrick Lambie from Seven62 Photo and insidemotorcycles.com for capturing video and stills from our afternoon with Michelangelo.

Thanks to Kane’s Motor Cycle Shop in Calgary for putting on the Vintage Day show. The barbecue was well done, and the live entertainment was great. Beautiful day with a good vibe and lots of very cool motorcycles.
