The craftsmanship of that upholsterer is first rate! The level of detail to create this seat cover is impressive! Excellent work from this person!

Now I think I understand a little bit better why this type of work is quite expensive. Beautiful workmanship! The stitching really set it off!

@marcosrajo7741 4 года назад

That looks beautiful! That guy Marcel is a master of his craft. The seat looks good but I think the first seat really helped show case his skill

@n3bie 4 года назад

I like the color personally, and had you kept it, I think it would have darkened with age and by applying leather oil. The final version does look awesome though!

@nicolasmachado447 4 года назад

Started the afternoon watching videos on bike wiring looms as I'm about to rewire my 1961 Lambretta, ended up watching all of your videos right back from the wiring loom creation...where has my day gone haha. You've certainly had your fair share of problems with this build but you stuck with it and well...here you are! A beautiful creation, amazing work. I'll be watching more of your videos tomorrow lol. Subscribed too!

@laurentlavie9136 5 лет назад

Man. You’re crazy ! And we like it. Leather barely done, and you do it once again because of the color. And you was so right. The new one fit perfectly the whole bike. I think now you gonna have some rest and ride your bike when the sun will coming back but we can’t wait to watch the série of your new project ! Once again, thanks for sharing all of this. We learn a lot through the video. Thank you so much and happy new year !

Hi, wederom een mooie video en ook zeer leerzaam! Dank je voor al je werk ik doe veel inspiratie op...

@archer52dhm 5 лет назад

I just started watching your videos about a week ago. I must tell you that they are informational, very entertaining and extremely well done. I have been refurbishing pre-owned motorcycles for more than 30 years and watching you build is inspiring and therapeutic. I have worked in video my entire career (am now retired ) and I will say to you, and to all watching your videos, that most people have no idea how time consuming and difficult it is to achieve your high level of production quality. I am also impressed by your musings and explanations of what you do during your builds. You really wear you heart on your sleeve. The seat building video was remarkable for your explanation of the process and allowing viewers to see the complete process. I don't build from scratch or to your quality level but I enjoy what I do, as I see you do. I will continue to watch your builds for inspiration, education and entertainment. Gefeliciteerd en nog veel succes voor je nog vele jaren.

@chiefpepdesign 5 лет назад

That were really kind words. Thank you so much! Offcourse there will be a final video of this build which is basically finished.

What great craftsmanship!!.. ...you can use a leather stain to darken colour! ..congrats on the finish bike, Chief!..can't wait for you to show us some riding videos on this beauty!..

@jimcook3448 5 лет назад

But you would probably end up dyeing the red stitching

@stevechong3889 3 года назад

WOW .... god level skill of seat crafting.. look awesome..

@johnnywright4268 4 года назад

@elainehodgkinson5866 4 года назад

Absolutely love watching craftsman at work. I'm a upholsterer 22yrs experience but my expertise is sofa's, chairs, beds, I've worked with all mediums fabrics, leather, vinyl, and I have always wanted to do car interior and motorcycle seat reupholstery but IV never learned how to use the sewing machine after watching this and other similar vids I think it's time I gave it a go. Awesome job by the way. Should of tried it with yellow piping a it would of carried the yellow line from the tank to the rear wheel guard.

@chiefpepdesign 4 года назад

Thanks! We were afraid it would be to much. Maybe too clowny. I wanted te keep the main focus on the bike itself and the tank. Too much details on the seat could distract that focus.

@Jenswsmjens 3 года назад

You nailed that red line. Nice job!

@jasonkristunas9427 5 лет назад

@waynemartinez8620 5 лет назад

Fantastic job! You was absolutely right about the color, although I did like the lighter brown also. Must've cost a huge amount but I'm sure it was worth it!

@chiefpepdesign 5 лет назад

Not explosive. I think it's reasonable.

@vladshap 5 лет назад

Yesss! The final seat color choice is fantastic! I agree that the other one didn’t fit. Congratulations!!!

@turtlepowersf 4 года назад

I was really hoping you were here in the states. I'd love to send you my seat for an upholstery job after I re-shape it to lower it down. I think that round trip ticket from California would make it a very pricey seat, though.

@OGBB33 3 года назад

Seat looks amazing. I understand now why after market seats cost so much. A lot goes into a high end seat. I wonder how pist guy was when you told him he needs to redo the leather? Lol. Great video! I enjoyed the tutorial.

@chiefpepdesign 3 года назад

Totally not pissed actually. He only wants perfectly happy customers. Otherwise he doesn't enjoy his job. And offcourse I paid extra for the extra work and material.
