I couldn't resist any longer. I assume eventually Buell will release their own, official patches but I wanted them right now. They aren't of the highest quality. I would rate them a 6 out 10 as far workmanship goes. Lots of loose threads. Would have been happier with better detail. They were cheap though, so the price makes its all just about OK. I had them made at a local leather shop and then put them on my new Fieldsheer corsair jacket. The Corsair if you are wondering, is spectacular. Very form fitting, with a LOT of stretch. I'm surprised this new carboflex material isn't taking the textile market by storm..... Anyway, on with the pics. I have a few extra patches. I wont be selling them since they are Turkish bootleg but I figure I could do one of the traditional Badweb "guess the location and win the item" contest. So first person to tell me where this picture was taken (city and country) gets 2 free patches!! (Message edited by pepperk496 on May 19, 2009) |

The one on the coat looks like the one I got! I was not sure when it was going to be unvieled.I have a story to share someday of a patch and sticker making it over here as a "preview" before it was released in the states, I gotta tell that one when we get home... |

Froggy, that appears to be the same set of columns as confirmed by my picture from the same vantage point (notice the green Buell shirt worn by fellow badweber ar_hillbuelly), and even though the album title I saved the pics under (and the city where the trip originated from) is Alanya.... the ruins are in a different city. Another pic might help....

Cool . .. I was doing the same thing with posters and embroidered shirts . . . . I'd love getting one. I wanted to do a shirt with the new logo on the pocket and the ENGINEERED IN EAST TROY, WI USA on the back. Very nice. |

The Corsair is a pretty sweet jacket. Just picked one up for my wife, and it seems very well built. Been thinking about getting one for myself too. There are some very good deals to be had right now on Fieldsheer gear. http://www.compacc.com/p.cfm/c/1001001/p/18456 http://www.motorcyclecloseouts.com/cruiser/mens+ja ckets+&+vests/fieldsheer_corsair+carboflex+jacket+ -+black http://www.bikebandit.com/product/9493 http://www.newenough.com/protective_apparel/textil e_jackets_and_pants/fieldsheer/corsair_motorcyle_t extile_jacket.html |

My guess is Side, Turkey. I know I've seen that amphitheater before. |

Damn. I figured it was in Turkey based on your location, so I googled for ruins in Turkey and found that picture, it said it was in Alanya. I fail at life. |
