Very Nice !
Where did you get the satchel, I was thinking of getting one made or making something similar,
I don’t want rear bags on the bike, but someplace other than my coat pocket to put little stuff would be great.

Is that the stock rear fender and handle bar brace for that model ?
The leatherwork I got done by a friend of mine in Italy. He's got an Etsy shop by the name Maxakaido and is also on Instagram (@maxakaido). He makes stuff for all makes and models. The only gripe I have with these bags is that the leather straps included are really thin and tend to make the bag sag with all the locks I throw in it hahahaha.

Yessir! Brace and fender are stock, but I'm currently debating whether or not to keep the brace though. Thinking about chopping the fender a tad shorter too and pairing it with a tail tidy. Only when it warms up here, don't have a heated garage where I'm renting at the moment hahaha.

You think I could get a leather tank strap from him for my v7?
 
I’m not feeling that one
I want one somewhat like the one MG offers but made to fit around a smaller flushed fuel cap

Work with me MAN !!!! :D

Yes - I understand - that one is a Bit larger than Life - Now if you were the Old Western type and in Montana maybe it could work.
If Max is doing all this as custom work on order he could probably make you just what your looking for ?

LOL sorry bro. you read my mind loud and clear.
I'm hoping that is the case and I can get one done
 
OK, that I knew about. I did not know that also meant other leather items as well. Good to know, I will keep this in mind. Thanks
Yes, we've done a few tank straps to match the seats. We can do the side panel pouches as well, but last I asked, no one took me up on it, as they'd rather send their money to France. ;)

Heyo! Sorry for the late reply, but yeah, Max can do tank straps. He lets you pick leather and thread colour, and of course you can work with him to make something of your design. I saw one rider put cigar tubes on his tank strap lol. Depending on where you are though (and how good your Italian is), it may be better to get Todd to make it for ya lol. If you do go Max's way, tell him CJ sent you!

I just had to get some Italian leatherwork to match my Italian bike ;)

Max should be able to design something. Otherwise, there's this other leatherworker I follow that has this tank strap(attached).

Cipifer Leatherworks, but not sure if he has an Etsy shop. I see them on Instagram @cipifer_leatherworks

Pretty impressed with the work Todd's shop did to my seat. Black leather with grey stitching to match my tank. Perfect comfort and some nice leather.

Ooooo, very tasty. You have any more pictures?

Hey Todd, any knowledge on what kind of leather your leatherworker uses? Vegetable or chrome tanned for example?
