saddler be my guess, It dosnt have a spare on it somewhere does it! Then put a protector on the tank, use one you buy or make a clear one if you dont like the other sort.

Next bet would be a clothing place who does leather maybe, even though Im guessing yours is a Gortex type. Or a place that does polythene stuff or trampolines that kinda thing, you never know. There is a guy who custom makes leathers for bikers, he was featured in kiwirider a while back. also your local craft shop, as in patch work supplies and the like. also dress makers who have lotsa buttons and domes. OR some who makes gymp suits lol.
