    i'm trying to find something i saw before we got the cruiser, and can't find
    now,

    i saw a photo of it.. not the real thing, so it was either in a magazine of
    on the web...

    It's basicaly a leather bag for the back of a cruiser type bike, attatches
    to the rear rack/sissy bar,

    It looks like one of those cylindrical sports bags, just made of leather,
    but where it sits on the rear rack there's a cut out so it sits in the rack
    so to speak..
    i.e the sides are round, bottom is round for a few inches each side, and the
    middle part of the bottom is flat so it sits on the rear rack properly,

    Kinda looks like it's designed so you can put a few small spare tyres in the
    sides of the bag :)

    I think it has the usual poncey cruiser type bits.. chrome studs, prolly a
    few conchos <sp>, big gay chrome buckles and so on.

    Now i want one, i can't find the fecker, i deffinately didn't see it in a
    shop, just a photo of it, and prolly on the web, but searching for leather
    rear bag, big gay cruiser bag, sissy bar bag etc brings up all other styles
    except this one.

    Anyone know what i'm on about <highly unlikely, but there's always a first>
    :)

    Type "leather sissy bar bag" into google - it throws up shitloads of
    links.

    The second link there is almost it, but not quite :(

    it's a round leather holdall type bag, but it has a flat bottom in the
    middle where it sits on the rear rack, thus making it not quite so high but
    still having room for some large objects.. if those objects happen to be
    shaped like a small tyre that is :)

    I'm fucked if i can remember where i saw it, it was one of those times where
    i was looking for something else, saw this and just kinda noted it mentaly,
    now i want one of the feckers, they're nowhere to be seen,

    Suppose if i can't find it, i'll have to look out for a cheap industrial
    sewing machine, as me mum's just reminded me she used to work for clarkes
    making leather shoes, and think's leather bags and things are a piece of
    piss to make..

    I origionaly asked about making some leather drinks can holders for the
    forks of me bike, can't get gayer than that.. well, maybe if they were
    babycham holders? :)

    Anyhoo, she said if she had a sewing machine capable of doing it.. oh and a
    cow or 2 would be handy for the materials i guess, she'd be able to make
    almost any leather item i wanted.
