Default 08 Night Train as a 50's style bobber part 2

So I think it is done. Just got the rear fender back from painter. I also added a rear fender strut to balance the front and back. The rear fender looked like t was floating with out it. I brought it to a local show and had the springer forks and rear strut pin striped. The internal throttle and internal twist clutch, freaked everyone out at the show. The Patriot exhaust with the baffle was a big hit.

I love it but why do you only show one side of your bike?

The front brake is a DNA springer front brake set up I found on eBay. Be careful that you order either left or right depending on what you need.
