Yes with moderate sewing and leather skills you can buy about $10 worth of raw leather a heavey hook needle and some saddle thread at a leather craft shop and make some damn nice leather bar covers DIY style. Great Job I'm planning on tackling this task for one of my vintage bike this winter to replace the very nice Faux leather Moto coverings that are finally starting to wear out after 30 years.
