RE: Springer for a Bob?
A SpringBob would be excellent. I would not modify my current 'Bob, but would seriously think of trading in if HD came out w/one. The proportions of it just scream for a springer.

I really don't want a softail but I just love the springer classic look so I considered a dyna with a springer frontend as well.
I even had the dealer look at the costs, a Wide Glide might be a better bike to start out with, it's got a similar angle as a springer.
Modifying a dyna to a Springer Classic as in my picture would cost me about € 15000, just adding a springer frontend would be "only" around € 4000.
This is what it wil look like:

I have to throw in my 2 cents here. That is a freakin' incredible job with the photo manipulation. Probably not a big deal to you, but it's seamless, way to go.

I had been playing with Paintshop Pro a bit more, I forgot I had these ones.
