Willing to try leather bar tape.

Interesting website, I see they offer leather strap helmets. My wife would beat me to death with it if I bought one, she threw my old one away.

Reminds me of a car show after I had the interior re-done in leather; A nice day but threatening on/off drizzle. Early in the day, on the show field, I must have put the top up and down half a dozen times, wanting to show the car top-down but unwilling to ruin the new interior. Another entrant came over and said "You do know that used to be the outside of a cow, right?" No explaining those Morgan owners, however.
