StarFan Posted July 5, 2016 Share #1 Posted July 5, 2016 Had the misfortune in beginning of April that a 17 year old girl backed me and my Red Baron down. Had to get a new Fender (Yamaha did not have the right color) and had it painted. Perfect match but also had to change all the things attached to the fender. Well, could say it happened at the right time since I had made some templates for a tank bib, a trunk bib and some saddle bag lid covers and Nanci at Ace High Leather was in the progress of making them. It all came in the post around the same time the fender was ready from the painter so I was able to change everything out and put these nice things from Nanci on the bike. These bibs were the final dress up thing I wanted for the Baron so now FINALLY the bike is complete. Gotta say that Nanci did a great job as always and never ceases to amaze me Below are some pictures of the Baron finally done. AND,,,,,,,,I am done and there will be nothing more,,,,IT IS DONE !!!!!! Period !!!!!!!!!! Came to my mind that maybe I should have the passanger grab rails braided with the same Red and Silver material as the seats and also the brake and clutch levers ? http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a501/jonaslill/Red%20baron%20finished/IMG_0764_zpsbxuogk4a.jpg http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a501/jonaslill/Red%20baron%20finished/IMG_0299_zps7cpr2rde.jpghttp://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a501/jonaslill/Red%20baron%20finished/IMG_0296_zpsahujys8q.jpghttp://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a501/jonaslill/Red%20baron%20finished/IMG_0283_zpsov9jhtvf.jpghttp://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a501/jonaslill/Red%20baron%20finished/IMG_0763_zpsyxp7fj8r.jpg http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a501/jonaslill/Red%20baron%20finished/IMG_0762_zpswkwhcbum.jpg http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a501/jonaslill/Red%20baron%20finished/IMG_0757_zpskigf6vir.jpg http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a501/jonaslill/Red%20baron%20finished/IMG_0755_zpsrj9a2foi.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarFan Posted July 6, 2016 Author Share #12 Posted July 6, 2016 Ahh,,,,The Slingshot,,,,Negosiations in constant progress with the Boss but nowhere near coming to an agreement due to current property investment. But who needs a property and who does not need a Slingshot. The negosiations will continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvdaleather Posted July 6, 2016 Share #16 Posted July 6, 2016 So Jonas, yes it is done. :sun:For the record, this man is relentless when it comes to designing something he wants to put on a bike. :smash2:He pushes my abilities beyond what I think I'm comfortable doing, is patient and somehow knows I can do it. What can I say about working with vinyl with incredible detail? :confused24:It's not leather :headache:and doesn't behave like leather so Jonas then brings in what he calls "German Velcro". With that he transforms what I felt would never fit right into "you'd be surprised what I can do with that stuff". :banana:When I said "You folks in Iceland must like really fancy bikes" :ignore:he emailed me back and said "yes we do". There you have it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
