Arigato for the thanks. Honestly, putting the order together in those numbers wasn't without it's difficulties and large expenditure of time. Especially figuring out some folk's requests from their descriptions required further...ah...analysis, and resulted in having to email back and forth a lot. Still, keeping you people looking trendy at the forefront of classic bike fashion is not without it's degree of enjoyment. Maybe we can do it again sometime if there is interest. I believe I have figured out a somewhat easier way to manage it the next time. Mr. Hishikawa really appreciates the work, and obviously does a great job in putting out beautiful goods. He started making up the order after my initial contact, before I had confirmed it. Appreciation again to Richard Cielec for his fine help. He really stayed on top of his end of it for us, despite being extremely busy at the time. I've only heard from a few people so far, but am happy to know that everyone seems more than pleased with what they have received. As for the individual who requested a pair of shiny leather shorts to go with his saddlebag and Peugeot, sorry, but I can refer you to 'Frederick's of Hollywood'.
