Title: Wifes Bday coming, need help!
Post by sharp21 on 02/02/09 at 23:52:06

I need to get a set of those bars that hold your saddlebags away from your wheel, but Im not sure what they are called or where to get them!
Also, Id like to get her seat shaved to look more like a gunfighter, then get it recovered in a tan leather.
Lastly, I would like to get handgrip covers to match the seat, with tassles off the end (her idea not mine...)
Any idea where I could source this stuff? I would be happy with sending it to somebody if they were recommended & fairly priced
Thanks
S.

Does she have a 1 pc seat or 2?
Are you looking to buy a another seat to mod?
saddle bags to match seat?
then thingy's are called saddlebag brackets.
the leatherup bags that paladin has are excellent quality and size.
and don't require the brackets
any upholsterer can do the job.
but some of the recent posts describe what works well.

besides, I have no idea where you're at, yet you know in general where I am.

On the handgrips with fringe: try Chilhowee Leathers:

I have a pair of these myself that are going on after it warms up outside and the Hippo Hands come off. ;)

Happy Birthday to your dearly beloved,

Guess I need to update my sig...
Im in Red Deer, AB
The seat is a one piece off an '07 S40. She really likes my gunfighter so I thought I could get it shaved down then recovered.
She already has bags so im just looking for brackets.
Thanks for the link!
