Great painter but perhaps not the vision of an artist. Many things get lost in the translation.

Looks to me like those arms and legs you see hanging from the trunks of cars? I am sure it isn't what you were going for. However it'll be the only one like it!

I think it could be executed better. I get your idea, but it doesn't look like it quite came out the way it should have. I'm sure he's a good painter, but it just doesn't grab you the way it should. I'd like to see another attempt at it, like with the dirt flying and stuff, it could really look neat. :2vrolijk_21:

The fact that you're asking and up front saying "be honest" tells me that you're expecting people not to like it... maybe because you really don't like it yourself... Sorry, but I'd agree with you...  I like the concept but it looks a little odd to me...  Some of the ideas already posted about how to modify it might make it better...  Is there anything else on the bike done in that concept?  If it blends with other things it might change my mind but by itself I'm not "feelin' it" as they say...

It is certainly unique, but right off the bat, I could tell it was a horse that was supposed to be galloping, so I say keep it!      :2vrolijk_21:

Showed the photo to local non-harley rider that is using the cowboy theme he thought it was great is prob gonna try and copy it on his. He was not on his bike will try to get a photo had the local saddle shop cover his seat looks like a saddle has a horn and seat like a saddle and the skirts that come down the side just no stirrups he used  set of heavy spurs for his highway pegs off his crashbar.

I've been planning to get the solo corbin recovered in tooled saddle leather with conchos. Also thought of the old spurs idea. I also may braid horsehair and put on end of grips like some use leather fringe.

Guess I could cut the trail off the next horse I have to put down and stick it on the back fender :P

I would keep it but add not only the rocks and dirt kicking up but do a HD Logo in one hoof and a CVO in the other.
