For reference, this is what's on my McQueen Scrambler. Wouldn't work on the Norton but another option

How about a tank strap where the oil filler screw cap is replaced with a fitting which forms the front mounting point?

Oooohhh. Possibly. Good idea

I've always fancied a brown leather tank strap. Might look awful in reality, but always thought about it

Your tank needs more stickers.

Interesting idea Clive. Not sure how it would look terminating at the filler hole, although a filler hole fitting could be fashioned to hold the strap against the tank (in the filler tube aperture). Worth a look.

There are a few leather alternatives out there if that’s yer thang! I’m not a big fan of this one, but it certainly adds a bit of functionality (storage & tank protection).

Do you know where the grips/seat came from on that?

Bike belongs to Sergio, who hasn’t been on the site for quite some time. My guess is all of the leatherwork would have come from the same leather goods manufacturer - he was Sydney based but no idea where he would have purchased them.

Plenty of custom bike seat manufacturers about Kev, if you want to get your seat covered. ‘Saddlecraft’ will do whatever you want - or select one of their available 961 options.
