I have a 2-up Fire and Steel seat on my 800 right now, but have been unable to find the matching tank fender bibs.....

+1 I bought lots of leather stuff from them and nothing but high quality. You can customize with reasonable costs.

I just sent the last of the tank bibs I had to the UK for a rider over there.

- November 30, 2016, 18:49:55 PMor-seedman, I have a studded tank bib made for the 800 classic and studded rear fender bib made for the Nomad. They fit and match perfectly and IMO look great. Both are made by Kawasaki parts/ Fire and Steel. They are getting harder to find but worth the effort for factory accessory quality for your scoot.

- November 30, 2016, 15:17:37 PMAny rear bib that work on any other Vulcan will work... most will work with some modification of how it sticks to the rear fender. I have one from a hd on mine... with two sided tape holding it in place... been there for about 5-6 years or more.

- November 30, 2016, 07:35:19 AMHey everyone. I hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving. I would like to pose a question regarding tank bibs and rear fender bibs for my 800. I found a tank bib with a pocket on Ebay that is reasonably priced, but have not been able to locate a model specific rear fender bib. Any ideas? I appreciate everyone's input...my wife needs some Christmas ideas for me..
