Default Got me a Bob!

Just wanted to drop in and say hey since I'm sure I'll be spending quite a bit of time in this forum. I got my bike last month and have just been getting parts together and should be starting to get it all put back together Saturday or the first of next week. There's alot of good looking Bobs in here already so I'm hoping to add to that.

With 21" front tires are you leaving the front fender off and is the wheel rim also blacked out? I want to see the finished product. Chrome hypercharger or the wrinkle black? Sounds like one cool setup. You will have to give us a report on how it rides. I am thinking of the larger front wheel for my bob.

Right, I will not be running a fender in the front. Hopefully I won't get hasled too much. The wheels have gloss black billet hubs and outer rim with stainless spokes. I'll let everyone know how the 21" effects handling and ride. The bike will be just to burn around town 90% of the time so I figured it was worth a shot...not too worried about a small loss in handling. The hypercharger is actually gloss black with chrome butterflys. I also went ahead and had the battery box cover and electrical cover powdercoated to match as well since I thought they looked out of place being wrinkle black on a Vivid Black bike. Should definately be quite a bit different than a stock Bob.
