Chris Keeble is a 57-year old grandma who loves to ride her “iron pony.” Shes customized her 2012 Harley-Davidson Dyna Fat Bob to look like a horse. Note the brown paint scheme, vintage leather seats and imported custom saddlebags that are adorned with Western riding tack and longhorns.

Chris has ridden the Dyna up and down the east coast of Australia and as far inland as Broken Hill. She’s had the Fat Bob since it was new in 2012, and has been riding for 25 years. Her previous bike was a Harley-Davidson Softail Deluxe, but she switched to the sleeker-looking Fat Bob when she spotted these saddlebags in Japan and had them shipped home. They wouldn’t work on her Softail, so she decided to buy the more modern café racer-looking Fat Bob. As she says, “You know, it’s all about the accessories sometimes!”
