What the heck, just one more.  My dog Hank thought the new bags were "real purdy."

What breed of dog is that?In my younger days I had a boxer/collie mix that looked identical. THE MUFFMAN

[MUFFMAN]

Oh, & you did a great job on the bike as well. THE MUFFMAN

Travis,
Great looking bags....I only have one question.  How do you teach a bike to hop bars?  I could only teach my Jester to limbo and then only to a certain level.  

  

It takes years of training and several  . 

Oh and an Legend Air Suspension helps too.  Makes it easier to get the bouncing started.

He is 100% hound.  He was a rescued puppy that we got from the pound, so I don't know what the parents were.

Looks great Travis.  I like your personalized touches.  And you picked a good artist also.  I do agree with Don, though..........you should take better pics so the detail is apparent.  I'm waiting for those since I don't know when I'll see it in the 'flesh'.  har!  spyder

Chip, when I was out there I didn't know his digital camera sucked as bad as it apparently does.  That was just nasty.  Some terrible chit there.  Incredibly crappy.  Can't believe how fuzzy those pictures were.  Ugly ugly ugly stuff.  It was like looking through pudding.  Camera must have cost a good seven or eight bucks and even then have a dirty lens.  He actually hides it so the photo cops can't confiscate.  If the guy really had a pair he'd use the good camera.  But his wife won't let him.  It's pretty sad actually... 

She also said her bike is prettier than his too .

I can't believe after being so frugal on what I spent on the bags, she won't let me drop another $1,500.00 on a digital SLR so I can take pictures of the bike.  

Thanks for all the positive comments guys, I really appreciate it.

First off, my apologies to James Brown for stealing his line. 

Second, my apologies for the poor pictures generated by my crappy digital camera.  But I finally get my bags back from the painter and I wanted to show them off.

The first few pictures are "bar hopper" mode.

That is beautiful!

Travis my boy, you done good!  No apologies necessary to the late James Brown.  THAT'S what he was talking about when he wrote the song 40 years ago.  His estate should be paying you royalties for every reference of that song in perpetuity (give yourself a dollar for starting this thread!).

Wo!  I feel good!

Make that $2.00 now.

I got it off of ebay (what else).  I think the guy makes them himself.  Here is a link to one of his auctions.

It is very chopped, but I think it creates a real nice line on the bike.  Low and aggressive.   

[Georgehjr]

Okay, here is the deal with the hinges.  I bought a set in anticipation of the new tour-pak, hired a professional installer (6-pack of Coors), and then Don tells me that the aftermarket hinges, won't fit my aftermarket tour-pak.  I guess it is too chopped.  

Anyway, if anyone would like a set of hinges, I have some for sale.

Sent you a PM

Thanks

All kidding aside it does look great.  Still love the line of that pancake chopped tour pak.  The whole look is just great.  Anytime you want to borrow my camera just say the word.  Maybe take it down to Quaker Mill?  That's be a good spot for bike pics.

Very nice. Talked w/Gene. Still waiting for samples for a color match for Black Diamond color. Seems to be quite a PIA to match. Can't wait to make my SERK in to a hard bag beauty also. Very Sweet!

He did Howie's black bags and tour bag.  When I saw the bags in York that was a dead on match.
