Hey folks, I am offering to do custom leather work. PM me if you’re interested. All prices do not include shipping. I am offering: Custom seats — a seat built from scratch using a stainless steel pan, 7-8 ounce genuine leather, tooled and laced to your specifications. Price: $275.00 Seat recovering – recover that stock seat with 7-8 ounce genuine leather. You can have your recovered stock seat custom tooled to your specs too. Recovering will add a firmer feel as the leather is much thicker and stiffer than the vinyl that’s on there. Price recover: $80.00 Price recover/tooled: $150 Tool bags – Built whatever way you want it. Price: $40.00 Fork shroud covers – Give your bike some leather to wear. Custom tooled and wrapped around your forks shroud using lace or Velcro. Price: $35.00 I can do many custom/specific projects as well like wallets/$20, key-chains/$5, wrapping parts, etc…   Shift rod  Case made for a member here  Wallet

DUDE! Those prices are JUST TOO GOOD!  I want mine recovered with hard, brown leather, no tooling, But by the time I'll be able to spare some change, you'll probably be backlogged with work.  Nice stuff! 
And you may see me tonight

NOT trying to hijack your thread-this kind of stuff is one of the main reasons we came up with our waterproof seat covers-so a rider who has this kind of custom work never has to worry about the elements getting the better of them.
Nice work-all the best.

Thanks, Alan. I appreciate it. Just a note to any customers: Like fast eddy, I will stand behind anything I sell and if you ever have an issue, I will make it right. For example, if a lace ever breaks or anything, I will fix it and get it back to you free of cost.

Wow Chris that work is 1st class Mate. You are a real artist. I am interested in doing a low profile seat in the near future. Having it done by you with some cool engraving would be really awesome. Will definetely get back to you in the near future if you are not over-run with business. Gotta say very talented.

I agree, stuff looks awesome man. I'm trying to think of something I want for my bike as we speak! I loved that disc lock case you did. Got my gears turning.

Just wanted to post the wallet tooling I did for Alabama Al. It's the rat but with some different colors: I hate that I don't have a pic after the touch-up's or the lacing I used on it but OH WELL...  Thanks Alan. I appreciate the business.

Chris, would you be able/willing to make some sort of cradle with a neck strap for this  ? The original bit of plastic on the camera that held the stap has broke off and I want to be able to carry it around my neck BTW it would involve shipping it to the UK

Me too, I Googled it and came up basically still baffled. There was a mention of some T V show, but I couldn't make the connection to a gnarly looking Warthog on a scoot.

Here's the knee pad on my bike. Thank you again for doing such a good job. It means a lot to me. I was HOPING I could have everyone see it on our all ladies ride, but we got rained out. We'd look like jet skis with rooster tails in the rivers on the roads right now.

Sorry to say that I'm not doing the leather work anymore. Maybe I'll give it another go in the future again but it's just too many frustrations and headaches. A huge thank-you to those that bought something and/or showed interest.
