Leather Tooled Seat, Solo Fuel Bag And A Different Fork Bag Design

[Jj5685]

I re covered my factory seventy two seat for practice until I got a more comfortable seat. But now I think I may just keep it on. I tried making a fork bag like the guy with the wide glide i think it was, but I couldn't get 8/9oz. Leather to mold good so I made my own. It looked better before I got caught in the rain a few times but it's still holding up. Color looks to be fading or blending darker but antique hasn't run any with bee natural rtc. I keep it oiled with neets foot oil. Water will roll off the finish but it finds its way in though the edges and stains it.

Im needing to make a bag to put somewhere on right side to hold some wrenches, Allen wrenches, screw driver, and pressure gauge. What would y'all suggest, like a roll up bag... i figure I can strap to my shock or a fold over like my fuel bag? I'd like to sew pockets for each tool. But the belt gaurd is taking up a lot of room.

After seat has been used for a month or so

And before it was Broke in

Solo bag

Fork bag

It's not a teradactal, its a skeleton eagle. You can see it better in this one

I try to mix dies differently to get several colors for each part but they blend together after awhile so it's basically a waste of time.

Awesome work! Skeleton Eagle- sweet! No other bike in the parking lot looks like yours. Well done.

Awesome job! I have a 48 which is the same seat. Did you take the factory cover off or go over it? Thanks!

I took it off. I havnt had a problem with rain making it a sponge. Which usually after a rain day I take it inside to the dehumidifier then oil it the next day
