Damn that is one smooth looking ride. Giving me ideas on what changes I may make when I get back. What is the brace in place of the front fender?

You totally nailed the look you were going for! Nice job.

Just curious, is the front wheel centered between the forks? I'm guessing that it's just the camera angle that makes it appear a bit off center in the second pic.

I agree with JRK, that small light makes the front end look like it's a foot and a half wide. Looks great.

Thanks again guys. As far as the wheel goes, it is the angle...... it's dead nuts. Mounted the hub using stock SB dimensions (axle spacer) on the caliper side so I wouldn't have to use caliper spacers with the the WG trees and SB lowers. As far as the brace it's the Superbrace setup. With the brace, wide front tire and trutrack setup it's nice and tight in the corners. Wanted older look with modern performance.

Nice touch with the smaller headlamp ..sort of got that effect pc'ing my lamp bezel black(optical illusion looking at it from the front) but thats better.. just got an allergy to fatboy lamps on streetbobs .

Think the retro Avon speedmaster II tires would go down well on your build,but thats just me ,shame they only do 5.00x16 dammit !!!
