The most impressive use of my artwork I've seen to date!
I'm trying to contact the guy who produced it in case anyone else would like one. I'll keep you guys informed.

I just need to get with the guy who's making them. It seems he's marketing them and he didn't go through me for permission to use my design. 
I'm sure we can work something out though.

Once I get with the guy who's making them I'll get back with you guys. What I would like for him to do is to donation a percentage of each sale to the GBF. 
Once he agrees to do that I'll post it here. Of course I know he'll want all my other designs for each group.

Technically Yes!
It's my design and it's posted on my website with a copyright notice.
From what I can tell he's a good guy from what everyone is saying. I don't think there will be a problem quite honestly but we will see.

That's a HD clutch housing cover isn't it. I'm surprised some poser hasn't found one to wear around his neck.

Here you go guys.
I got Tim to agree to give 10% of the retail price of each cover to the GBF. I told him I didn't want anything else in return.
Custom Engraving Ltd. Slinger, WIS. 262-644-1500. You can ask for Tim and tell him AL sent you. I want him to see how many people we send to him. Again you keep your cover and get a brand new cover to put on but it does take about 7 weeks normally. He is backed up right now so it's taking a little longer right now.

alelks, why don't you contact this guy and have him make some pins w your design - he'd sell a boatload of them. (as long as they have red, green, or blue backgrounds).

So what is the back story on how he got your graphics without your permission?

A brother took it to him and asked him to make one for him.
Tim has a family run business and seems to be a pretty nice guy from what I can tell. Other brothers that have met him have told me the same.
If it's a one off all I ask is that everyone make sure the person producing it knows that he is not mass produce it or make it available to anyone else without my permission to use the design.
If a person wants to mass produce the items they need to contact me and get my permission and at least agree to donate a minimum of 10% of the selling price to the GBF. Pretty much a judgment call on my part and right now that's about it.
