Go right ahead. As for the one that's on the table now, here's another look at it that might give a hint to some....

I have no idea what that is. Any symbologists on the OT?

This one is for all you MC members out there...
What is this bike, who did it belong to, and why is it famous (other than just because of the owner)?

Darath if you mind me answering. That is the Battleship "Mikasa" was a flagship of Imperial Combined Fleet of Japan during Russo-Japanese War of 1904.
Around that time, Russia was thought to have world's strongest naval power and nobody thought Japan could win the war. But in battle of Tsushima, Mikasa under Admiral Heihachiro Togo led the Combined Fleet to completely defeat Russian Baltic Fleet, obtaining naval supermacy which led to the country winning the war.
Following the Washington Naval Treaty in 1921, Mikasa was decommissioned and preserved as a museum ship. During WWII, she was left in a very poor state but today she's restored completely and preserved in Yokosuka.

guess it's stumped the OT. That symbol is the imperial Seal of Japan.

The Japanese also put it on the bows of their warships...

Well I know it's not an old Harley or Indian. I'm guessing it's British and it belonged to T.E. Lawrence AKA Lawrence of Arabia. I make that guess based off what looks to be his portrait behind the display.

Good work but I was not asking about the ship, I was asking about the seal itself.
