Ok now, be easy on me. These photos suck, but they are the best I can take at night, and I won't be home before sun down until Monday.
So here they are, I still don't have the correct seat springs and the fender still needs to be rounded in the back, but you get the idea.

Lookin good man. I like the springs you got on there now. Scissors would look good also though. I like that Sporty in the background. I have some struts to make that thing a hardtail if you want them. They are just sitting in my shop looking pretty. They will lower it about 4 inches in the rear and hard tail it. Nice work on the Train, pm me if interested in struts.

Just a 4 1/2" angle and painters tape. It is real rough, I need to take it off and grind the edges some more.

Looks great. Nice save on the ST fender. I went with the 200mm bobber fender from Heartland. Just bought the fender, not the whole kit. It came ready to paint, and instead of drilling my swingarm, my local indy just fabbed a bracket that clamps very tightly on the swingarm and mounts the fender. No bottoming out as it's still mounted to fender. Your project is going great.
