Nice work. I like everything except for the rear, too much fender and it's riding too far from the tire. The front of the bike looks spectacular!

Those handle bars are super clean and I really like the work on the tank and speedo. But I must agree with the others regarding the rear fender.

Looks great! How do you like the internal controls? That really cleans up the bars

The bike is beautiful. I would do a swingarm mounted rear fender on it personally, but it's your bike, so run what ya like.

That's a sick build man, I love the bobber look with that fat rear tire. The bars look crazy clean, and that springer front end really takes it to the next level. I've been kind of pining for a spring seat for my slim but haven't really given it much actual thought, that seat makes me want to reconsider. Also, that 2-1 exhaust is probably the best looking 2-1 I've seen, really digging that. I do have to say that where I like that you got rid of the stock "flipped up" or whatever train fender, that one does look a little awkwardly mounted. I feel like the patch on the gas tank could use some prettying up... the rest of the bike is so polished looking, that would look cool on a chopped up garage special KZ-type bobber, but on yours I think it detracts from the sexiness that is the rest of the bike. All in all though, righteous bike.
