Look for a springer front end, and I think you will get the look you want. You can buy new back ones on ebay for around $400. They are a nice DNA knock-off. I have installed a set on a chopper I built, and they are really good quality.

Enjoy the NT, it’s a great bike.

I know, i had the same doubts, but after looking many posts here, i found a lot of XB with V&H big radius, and I don't think they look too bad.

I think what i'm trying to get is a mix between badboy and old school.

What i need to remove is this '80 look from the NT.
