bikermutt07 Posted August 26, 2018 Report Posted August 26, 2018 That is a badass tricycle. Will you be selling it or saving it for a future grandson? You really did a great job. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.

Those slicks are a nice touch, so is the wide whitewalls on the front. Where did you find them? All the purchased items (hand grips, seat (before I tore it apart and rebuilt it), headset, etc.) I bought off of Amazon. The parts I needed were too specific to try to find them all "locally."

I have no idea what I'm going to do with it. I could never get out of it the money I put into it, not to mention any of the craftwork. I'll probably just hang onto it until my kids loose all interest, then give it to someone that I think MIGHT take care of it for awhile. My kids will probably dig it for another year or so... Quote
bikermutt07 Posted August 27, 2018 Report Posted August 27, 2018 Well, then I say keep it for the future grandkids. They will love it. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!!

Members Ragingstallion Posted August 29, 2018 Members Report Posted August 29, 2018 That is an awesome job Quote
alpha2 Posted August 29, 2018 Report Posted August 29, 2018 I forwarded this to my Harley biker buddy, he was very impressed! And, that was with a minimum of chrome. He's all about chrome. Jeff Quote So much leather...so little time.
