Waving 1700 Saddlebag Lid Covers/BIBS

For anyone interested I have pasted a link below to another Vulcan Forum I belong to. One of the guys there found a shop in Montague, CA that is interested in making covers for the 1700's saddlebags. However they need at lease 4 orders to get the process rolling. If your interested follow the links. I don't have any addition info on the covers, you'll need to contact Nanci at Ace High Leathers if you have questions.

I just use a little wax and the scuff marks come right out.

That's true but the unfortunately the scratches don't.

That's true. I have the same bike as yours. The light color on top does a good job of hiding things. If the black was on top everything would be noticeable.

I took mine down to a truck lettering company and had them put a 3M clear film over mine and you just buff when needed and it does not effect the paint job.
