Shamelessly transferred these pics from FB. 97395973969739797398 When I first saw these I thought it was a great idea to glue the silver conchos on with the leather strips.:firstplace: Then I realized it was ALL PAINT!!! :bowdown: I have seen other works by her on various :spyder2: and other bikes. But this has got to be my favorite!:clap:I wish I had half her patience!!

Here is the Jack Skellington she did on my gal's bike.

P.S.
The '14 RT'L is not mine...it was a loaner from the dealership while mine was in the shop.

I wish!!! I know there is no way in holy h:cus: that I could ever afford the probably very large $$$'s she charges!:banghead: Besides, I could never decide what I would want on the bike.:yikes: I think it would be like getting a tattoo - you better REALLY BE SURE before she even puts down a brush stroke! Like the tattoo, you're going to have to live with it for the rest of your and the :spyder2:'s life!!!

I think that is real leather. It is the seat so I think they took it to a saddle maker, handed them their credit card and their 1st born and told them to have at!!!:roflblack: Just checking prices on just a saddle, they start at about $500.00 for a plain saddle with no decorations at all. Tooled and with conchos $1000.00 and up! I saw a How It's Made (love that show) on making saddles. Very labor intensive - lots of parts and pieces to cut and sew and tool to put together.

I thought someone just put their horse saddle on their Spyder and took a pic. You really think they modified the seat?
