That first one is probably some sort of bird
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

The " Made in Italy  " one looks a lot more comfortable to wear.

Until you've had a belt buckle with, *ahem*, sharp edges you won't know what he's talking about :)

does anyone have a good online vendor who sells belts to fit these buckles?  i.e. buckle-less belts?  i've looked around locally and cant find anything.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I'm really tempted to buy some of those Ducati apparel things, but I can't shake the feeling that doing so would make me significantly more of a tool than I already am.

Nope, that one's hand Jarv made :)  I didn't really consider ergonomics in the sketching phase though, and by the time the metal was cut.....well it was too late.

I've actually thought about doing custom buckles and there have been a few Duc designs floating around.
