If you like it, that's what counts. But since you asked for opinions, I don't care for the bobbed rear fender look--it might look better with a solo seat (but I probably still wouldn't like it).

The tank looks funny--I don't know how to fix it, perhaps it's just the white space beneath it my eye doesn't like. I do kinda like the raked out front end look but somehow the proportions just seem off. Just my .02.

needs a 21 up front..badly.
Needs a different tank setup. Choppers and porky tanks are like porky chicks with tank tops. Peanut tank, sporty, something along those lines.
rear of bike looks cobbled together after the front mods. Custom fender/seat setup that hugs the tires shape better would help that.

not feeling it fundamentally, but hey you at least moved beyond the willie g bolt on stage that so many are seemingly stuck in and thats a good thing.

IMO I think a chopper with raked front long legs looks better hardtail or softail, your bike is really not bad.
