birin Posted February 19, 2009 Share #1 Posted February 19, 2009 I was looking at philmartin's illustration and the original bike he based it on- and really like the look of the rear trunk bib. Does anyone have a supplier for this leather rear bib? I would like to put one on my RSV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone have a supplier for this leather rear bib? I would like to put one on my RSV. Found a guy in Florida that make such a thing, also for the top of the side bags as well. Will email you the link to the ebay info when I get home and try to post some of his pictures. Considering the side bag covers, to stop mrs. from kicking the tops when she get on the bike.

Guest BluesLover Posted February 19, 2009 Share #3 Posted February 19, 2009 The trunk bib used to be Yamaha OEM, but they discontinued it some time last year, I believe. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
friesman Posted February 19, 2009 Share #4 Posted February 19, 2009 I would love something like that for my 85 G1, does anyone make those for our scoots? Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philmartin Posted February 19, 2009 Share #5 Posted February 19, 2009 Hi Birin... I made that. Went to an upholstery shop, bought some fabric, sketched out a template. My mother sewed it and I applied the studs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birin Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share #7 Posted February 19, 2009 I can't find anything on JC Whitney. I think HOPNEL discontinued making those bibs?? philmartin - you are fortunate to have such a talented mother - it looks great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted February 19, 2009 Share #8 Posted February 19, 2009 Yes, JCWhitney sold the one made by Hopnel. I have one of the Hopnel ones on my bike also. Don't know why they quit making them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Saddletramp Posted February 19, 2009 Share #9 Posted February 19, 2009 I searched high and low for one last year. No one had a bib available. Finally found one on the Star Touring site from another member there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikealiasmike Posted February 20, 2009 Share #10 Posted February 20, 2009 Heres a link on Ebay for a trunk bib. I'm going to get the saddlebag bibs as soon as I can afford them. Guy has 100% feedback and looks like he aims to please his customers from the sounds of it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Yamaha-Royal-Star-Venture-Trunk-Lid-Bra-Cover_W0QQitemZ320333056899QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotorcycles_Parts_Accessories?hash=item320333056899&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A727|66%3A1|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A1318 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While its different than Phils its still a nice clean look on a G2 scoot! http://motors.shop.ebay.com/merchant/tsavoie9 Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian If you need to reach Troy, (the guy selling the trunk or side bag covers) I have an email address to reach him. PM me and will provide. I have him pricing out a Tank Bib with a custom pouch and then wraps around the lower tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
