Well since this thread isnt about leather anymore... if any of you northern/southern NJ folks are in the central area (belmar beach area), shoot me a PM and we'll do some riding!

Have a safe 4th fellas

Hey Numb i'm working out a weekend to get up your way to see my friends. I'll be on the bike so I'll give u a heads up and maybe we can get a ride in! Hope all is well, talk to you soon.
Definitely give me a heads up man. I'll be away most of August, but I am around in July, and definitely up for a ride.

Yeah, I know the guy is busy, and if his customer service was a little better, like an update every once in a while, then it might not even be an issue. But it just seems like the guy doesn't even care, and that will be his downfall, IMHO. It doesn't matter how good you are, if you get a rep for being unreliable, people will stop ordering your stuff.

It's the artist thing...
I have had good luck with most...bad luck with others... I waited a year for a sissy bar that I had given up on... it just showed up one day...

I have been away for a while... it's good to be back!
looking at some old threads on your bike.... I guess I need to get my a$$ in gear!!

Welcome back!
These artist types are very temperamental. I have been finding this a lot in the world of custom cycle builders.

Hey Skip, how you been? Likewise on the bike. I just got an email from Duane, saying his computer crashed and he lost a lot of his business stuff. He said he could have the bag for me in a week, so I told him to go ahead. I'll post some pics when it comes.

Just see how long this artist crap lasts after all the funds get cut off. Sounds like a dill wad who can work with leather. That's all it is.
