Hey man great tutorial! The double sided tape? Awesome. So, just something to consider/try if you want. I do my motorcycle grips very similar, the difference is that I go about a quarter inch short on the circumference, and after cutting and prick punching etc, I soak the leather in warm water and wrap and stitch them wet. When they dry, they are nice and tight on inner housing/bars from shrinking. If I could post some pics I would, sorry!

Looks great. Always nice to customize your ride.

[@fredwilley5931]

Good job!

[@DavidPerez69]

what type of stitching thread would you recommend? Wax Nylon thread or Wax Nylon Leather Thread or something different altogether?

[@kathychanning1614]

I think the stitching is called ‘cross stitch’ in embroidery.

[@lordbyron4163]

Nice job...... I would have overlapped the end though for a neater finish

[@ClintPrior]

Nice job. What bike was it you bought?

[@akshaypatharkar6024]

Hi brother it looks awesome. Can you please tell which double sided tape did you use? I guess it's a tissue based tape

[@TheWoodWorkingPilot]

Dude, post came out really nice. If I send you the measurements of my Harley will you make me some in black leather? 😉

[@CurrentElectrical]

I think he has been offline for about a year. They are fairly easy enough. Maybe use the contact on facebook? Not sure myself as his last post was in 2017 as well. What are the measurements?

[@urgensimpson7477]

Great job! What kind of leather you used in this project?

[@muratcansen7558]

[@shadowgolem9158]

Burnish the ends next time? Great idea though.

[@edgoad7129]
