In Da Weeds - Round 2 Bobstah mods w/pics
So what do you think? 3 pics below.
Da Bobstah after slamming it down with Prog. 11" HD shocks, Prog. front springs, lowered front a little, fork boots, new headlight w/visor moved up and out, lots of powdercoating, Mustang seat, a/c cover, SE fork brace, etc. It's finally all coming together! Immediate plans for 2" extra in the risers and then see how it all fits, but if I still need more height in the bars will go with taller apes.
Handles great now and only a few pings from pebbles, and getting pretty good at dodging rocks and pot holes already! Can't believe the improvement in handling - really planted and hunkered down now in the corners and over bumps.
A few more pics in my gallery if you're interested.
Thanks for looking-
Chip

Thanks man - yeah, I was really surprised at how a simple thing like installing the fork boots and removing the fender really adds a lot the whole look. But once it was slammed down with the suspension mods it was just crying out for the rest.
Glad you like it!
And I forgot to thank everyone here on the forum who shared their expertise, ideas and parts sources - couldn't have done it without you all!! THANKS!

RE: Aging accelerated pics - round 2 Bobstah mods
pastahcole -> Not far from Keene, actually in Dublin on Peterborough side. Bought the '07 Street Bob at Monadnock HD last winter. Great, great people there. New owner 2 years ago has done wonders for customer satisfaction and friendly small town family atmosphere, not at all like the big city stealers! best vehicle purchasing experience I ever had (and I've had lots over the last 60 years - LOL).
wisemx -> thanks, man!! Glad you like it - been a vision in the making for years even though the bike is an '07, just needed the right canvas to start from!!
You might like some more cool stuff in my photobucket album (bikes, broads, rods, and related art):
