Peanut rocker covers. I love their curves. So bought some for the Ah-8-Tee. Fitted them at 6:30 this morning.
All but making a large leather saddlebag I am done. What a great feeling. I have taken this to how I wanted it to look like. With some changes on the way.

Next up will be working on the Suzuki GS125.

Well Ross, let me be the first to congratulate you. That is the ugliest motorcycle I've ever seen!

Ok, maybe I jest. Different strokes? Very cool that you created what you envisioned. A real congratulation.

Au contraire, mon bon homme. Sure that motorcycle looks awful on the outside. But it's radiant inner beauty is what draws the eye. That Harley Knucklehead engine is splendiferous. The outer tatty clothing obscures but doesn't hide the inner beauty. It's kind of like a beautiful lady dressed in tattered ugly clothing. The mind ignores the tatty visual barrier and goes immediately to the lovely form underneath.

I was going to say more but I kind of lost my train of thought.

Ken, bedazzled by inner beauty in Oklahoma

No, Ken. It's kinda like the grossest, ugliest, beat up, stinky, filthy, oozing sore covered human being that anyone has seen in their entire life, but you still think they've got a good heart.

Changed out the Tardis BMW panniers and fitted the 21ltr Givi ones I have had sitting around.
I like the shape of the Givi. Would have loved to have gotten hold of some 50s beetle bags but they cost more than I want to spend.
