Tank Panel

Recommended Posts

Hi,

This is one of my first completed leather projects. It's already a month or two since I completed it, but anyway I thought I'd share it here. (Click the pics to view them bigger)

Here's the panel cut and tooled, and the lacing started (sorry, no pics of tooling phase):

Panel laced. I'm very proud that I took time to do symmetrical lacing :-)

Here's the stitching in progress. Funny thing is that the stitches are not even visible when the panel is installed. But I know it's there ;-)

The panel could be installed and removed also with the speedometer nacelle on the bike, with the help of this "fastening system":

Stitching done:

Panel completed and greased:

Panel installed on the bike. The biggest flaw is that I put the tooling too far up, as you can see:

Sorry for being picture-heavy. Hope you enjoy.
