From Page 12<br />
Ramon’s attention to detail<br />
means a customer’s<br />
custom motorcycle bag will<br />
be the finest a customer has<br />
ever owned and will get<br />
them noticed on the road.<br />
Seat coverings can be altered<br />
to fit the individual,<br />
so no more struggling with<br />
factory stock seats that can<br />
be uncomfortable or even<br />
dangerous to ride on. Ramon<br />
can add fringe to any leather<br />
motorcycle accessories, including<br />
custom hand grip<br />
fringe, floorboard fringe and<br />
bag fringe. Heritage Softail<br />
bags can sag over time, but<br />
Ramon can keep those bags<br />
looking new with his custom-made<br />
leather supports.<br />
If a customer has patches<br />
but doesn’t trust themselves<br />
to apply them, Ramon can<br />
apply them for the customer<br />
to their cut, leather or denim<br />
jackets or their bike’s bags.<br />
Ramon has been working<br />
with leather since his father<br />
started teaching him when<br />
he was just 5 years old. Since<br />
then, Ramon has been honing<br />
his craft, so there is not<br />
any job too big or too small<br />
for him to handle with the<br />
expertise and care needed<br />
when making alterations or<br />
repairs to a customer’s most<br />
prized possessions.<br />
When customers work<br />
with Ramon, they are going<br />
to come away with exactly<br />
the work they want done at<br />
a fair and honest price. This<br />
holiday season, residents<br />
should come see why Ramon<br />
is the only name a customer<br />
needs to know for all their<br />
motorcycle leatherwork and<br />
shoe repair needs.<br />
