Default Night train bobber build... New pics

Here are the final pics of my NT that I modified to a bobber style. Since I posted the last pics I have taken some of your suggestions and installed vintage rubber grips and modified the AC. I also added F&R axle covers, turn signals, tail light/plate bracket, pivot bolt covers, and straightened out the cables. I took TX Outlaws advice and installed a 2" tank lift and I feel the tank now flows better with the line of the frame. It runs and sounds amazing. During the build I actually bought another Softail which I may do something similar to as I enjoyed the build so much. So, this one is probably going up for sale. I have alot of time into this build. What do you guys think is a fair price to ask for this? Thanks for all your encouraging comments and I hope you enjoy the pics.

A P pad and sissy bar would really make the rear flow.
