I think the bike looks good but with that size lamp up front I think a fat 16" would suit it more than a 21"....

I thought about that, but decided maybe in the next incarnation with a wide springer frontend, something along the lines of a cross bones front. For now it's a somewhat wide 130/70/21 on a 3.25" rim.

Did the headlight last night and added a frenched trim ring, I also got the strut covers back on it and added some short stem round mirrors.
Still waiting on my 21" to get back from the shop.

You're right, I hadn't really noticed how bunched up they look until I saw the high res picture. I think some trimming is in order before I go out for a ride tomorrow.
Also, thanks for the compliment on the light.
