Took a five minute break, and was looking through my pictures. I don't think I posted these before. Guy bought an old HD Sprint (125cc, I think...google if want). Everyone collects them, but they are not rare...millions were made. He was lucky enough to get a picture the original owner had of when it was fairly just new. Cool.

But it had a set of bags on it, and he wanted me to duplicate them. So I did. It was fairly thin leather, and looked a bit floppy.

So, I made these, and danged if they didn't come out looking just like the originals, except I couldn't make out what the original conchoes were. The customer paid up, and ran right out to go home and throw them on, thanking me all the way out...lol.

Thanx, Doc, and Spider.

Nothing too special, but they were true to the originals, at least. I wonder if they were a HD bag back then? I don't remember ever seeing one like it, but who knows...
