Default Crossbones Leather Battery Cover Custom For Sale

Hey guys. As most of you know, my friend and I made a custom leather peice for my XBones. Well, we had enough leather to make 4 more, so figured we'd make some for you Bones owners that aren't all that thrilled with the plastic OEM offerings.. We made a couple changes the 2nd time around, and both changes were for the better. We used much thinner wire, that made it simple to bend to the contour of the frame. We also used a more simple double weave which actually looks better, covers the wire completely, and takes 1/3 less time.

We've made all 4 plain black with nothing down the center. As is we can sell these things for $250 each. We can add a weave pattern down the center, or grommited decor of some sort down the sides for an extra $25. If you want an exotic leather peice down the center, it'll be an additonal $150. I have one Black and one dark maroon sting rey hides, but can order any thing you'd like. I have a Tandy Leather down the street from me, and they carry all sorts of Ostrich, Snake, etc.. so I could also purchase something custom for you.

If you want one as is, I can ship them for $10 UPS Ground to anywhere in the US. Overseas will be more. But I am able to ship over seas.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; I have a paypal account if you want to go that route.

We may produce more of these if they all sell quickly, but as it is right now, the first 4 people to send me money get em.

Here's some photos of the finished product, and some production shots.

Every one is exactly the same....



Jason making sure every cut is perfect...



We ended up having enought leather for 4 more...



Here's mine with sting rey down the center...



These are made where you have to relocate the ECU from the rear fendter to over the fuse box. We will include two velcro ties with holes punched in for mounting. We will include instructions with the package...



Here are the finished shots on my bike...

For&nbsp\\;those of you who don't own crossbones, but would like to have a spring seat, this will also work with any soft tail model, with the crossbones seat and mounting hardware...
