shadowryder Report post Posted November 22, 2011 Hi Y'All, I,m new here,Was pointed in this direction by Chris from thee mutts custom leather,Got to know him online thru the honda shadow Aero M/cycle forum. I am from a small town in WALES which is part of the UNITED KINGDOM,I tend to frequent U.S. forums more though because there is a much wider degree of knowledge distributed on this type of subject. I do a bit of work with leather myself though just at "intermediate "level i would say skill wise, I am making tank bibs and small bags etc for M/cycles.at the moment but would like to progress to bigger things. I did quite a bit of re-enactment type stuff a few years ago making gunbelts n sam browne type stuff for Civil war enactors.though it was very basic finish and "rough n ready" if you know what i mean LOL!!! If i can do it here,s a cople of pics of my recent stuff. Cheers Y'All... JJ.. A PIC OF MY RIDE Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spinner Report post Posted November 22, 2011 Looking good JJ, keep it up. There are plenty of bobber seat references on the forums, check out the Show Off and Motorcycle gear sections for more inspiration than you can shake a stick at. If you need tips on the bibs part, feel free to hit me up, I can tell you all the in and outs of the Aero750 & 1100, Spirit, Valk, VTX and new VT tanks as I've worked on them all.
