I just finished the bib for my yellow 96.

Some how I managed to mis caculated and made it too long, but I can resolve that (moreso than too short!).

I'd like to ask what is the value of something like this? If I were trying to sell them, I'm thinking the $50 to $75.00 range. Is that something you guys would pay or is that too much?

Chilhowee sells theirs for $85 plain. Studs, pockets, etc add to the price. I think you need to offer one without the pocket as well. Here is a link to their site: http://www.chilhowee.net/suzuki-tankbra/TB047.html How does yours attach? Could you include photos of the top and bottom attachment points?

To answer your question, I think you are in the right price range. Maybe. The Savage one is expensive because there is no supply. If you look at the offerings for the "popular" bikes from other vendors, most are in the $50-$60 range. Many are even less. Personally, I think to sell well you may need to be at the lower end of the price range you gave for one with a pocket and less for one without. But I'm a cheapskate when it comes to this type of stuff.

And I would offer a matching fender bib as well. When we go to solo seats, the fender is ugly and I think the fender bib and tank bib would need to match. While you're at it, a matching tool/fork bag would be awesome too!  

Got a pic of it installed? Looks really skinny from pic in post.

On the tank....

Looks really nicely made JR, tough trying to match that bright yellow with leather dye huh  

and I like the looks of this "tie". it goes well with the seat, of which JR wrote above.

Where did you find a yellow deer?
