TaurusSeats Report post Posted May 2, 2013 Hello everybody! I am new to this forum and just wanted to show off our work. We make custom motorcycle seat covers and accessories. I am attaching few pictures of our recent custom set that contains the seat, handlebar pouch and saddlebags. Our customer is obsessed with red color and wanted her set to match the bike color as close as possible. She developed her own design that we implemented to the best of our abilities. We would love to hear your opinion and constructive criticism. More pictures are available on our website www.taurusseats.com Thank you, Anna@TaurusSeats Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TaurusSeats Report post Posted May 2, 2013 Thank you very much! I forgot to mention that both pouch and saddlebags are totally handcrafted. There is no machine work involved, except for the burnisher. Every stitch is done by hand! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

benlilly1 Report post Posted May 2, 2013 AWESOME! Love the colors too! You could use that tool bag for a purse! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TaurusSeats Report post Posted May 2, 2013 AWESOME! Love the colors too! You could use that tool bag for a purse! Thank you so much! It is a purse! Our customer actually asked us to make it multifunctional. The strap on top if is made for easy pulling it out from its place, and the chain/leather strap is for carrying it on the shoulder. Chains make it heavy so it is easily fall inside when on the bike. Here is another picture of it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ReneeCanady Report post Posted May 2, 2013 Genius with the purse idea! I love the bags and the seat. All look very clean, nicely stitched, and have a bit of attitude with them. Well done! One question that has been killing me and I see it is on your seat there. The piping on the rear of the seat....what is that? I'd like to try that with a western style handbag, but I don't even know what it's called. Probably not piping lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the secret is - we used the silver/chrome leather. I am attaching a cropped picture for you. Sorry I do not have a better resolution. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TaurusSeats Report post Posted May 2, 2013 You may also wonder why saddlebags have circles in the middle. They are matching the filter cover and the wheels. I made a collage to show the idea. When our customer will send us a picture of the entire bike dressed up in this set, I will post it here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReneeCanady Report post Posted May 3, 2013 Ah thanks! That is really nice! The circles were cool before you showed what the intent was and now they are awesome lol! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
