    My leather guy is gonna try to put a saddle looking seat cover on my bike seat. This picture is the inspiration. I love it! I wanted to see what the rest of the bike looked like, but I can't find a picture of it anywhere?

    I am nearly certain it belongs to a member of a bike forum I frequent and I put the word out that we want to see the rest of the bike. As soon as I know more I will let you know. While we wait, and without entirely hijacking this thread, what do you ride?

    It was not a member's bike and it was shown just for the leather work. Here's the rest of the bike.

    I had an 86' Electraglide Classic "Liberty" Edition. Loved the bike, but maintain it was becoming too expensive, and parts were at times hard to find. I sold it, and bought an 06' Yamaha Roadliner Midnight. If you've never rode one....you need to throw your leg over one and rip the throttle back. 113CI, 102hp, air-cooled V-twin. It's belt driven; has Cobra Exhaust, and the Dynojet Power Commander III under the seat. The bike rides like a dream, and runs about 2300rpm@60mph. Not to bad?

    I've added saddleman saddlebags, and a memphis shades speed demon windshield to the bike, since taking these photos, so I will have to do an update soon. I'm planning on adding a batwing fairing for it this spring. But wouldn't this bike look great with a saddle seat, and matching saddlebag design? Definately have to have the saddle slot for my six shooter as well!

    I love your bikes too! My brother-in-law has a sporty like that one of yours. I'm not a hardcore fan of any make or model, but I do like this Roadliner I got right now. Doesn't matter to me what anybody rides, as long as they ride. Must be nice living out there in Arizona? You prolly get to ride year around, don't ya?

    Love the first photo -- but it would help if you isolate the bike itself...the trees in the background made it too busy. The second photo must have been taken while you were moving. Very creative...

    Regarding the 2nd photo, yes, it was taken while moving and just to save face on the 1st photo, here's two others that I hope you like and think I did better with. Love photography.

    I mean...on the first, first photo you should have done a little bit of blurring at the background to isolate only the bike and improve on the focal point. The same with the first photo on this page of your post. This can either be achieved by doing a manual shot where you can control the amount of background blurring or via post-processing, eg, in Photoshop.

    Love both your second photos are good! You got a good eye for beauty. Shoot a good one at least once a day...Photography is my blood even if it is not my bread and butter. I am a sucker for good photography.

    Nice looking rig. I often see persons open carrying. Mostly autos. See the occasional a wheel gun or two. Just the other day saw what I would consider a western style, an older guy with a very well used long barrel six shooter.The holster rig had a lot of miles on it.
