Thanks Mike.
I've been in the car and motorcycle business for about 10 years, in the custom business for 8.

Awesome work but what the heck kind of tire in on that bike? It looks like a car tire like a 195-50-14.

Yepp... it's a car tire. The customer is a 'long haul' rider, and to take the extra weight and mileage that he puts on the bike he installed a car tire on his bike. He says it works fine. Since the tire isn't ridiculously wide or flat, it still turns okay.

Nice job man!! looks really good! I`ve seen some radical seat skins on your site! what kind are you putting on this one?

Thanks! I've put in lots and lots of hours on those seats to get to the level i'm at now with leather tooling.
I don't know what's going on this one yet. It's a long distance rider, so it won't be a flashy show piece, just indestructible and long lasting, wrapped around 2 layers of memory foam padding.
