Nice! Planning to turn mines into a Bobber also, but its gonna be a while, since its gonna be a lot of $$$ lol.

I like that no fender look, but I am assuming you can't take it out when it rains/wet lol.

Eshimits, looks great!   But I won't even ride a bicycle without fenders.  I absolutely hate taking a mud shower every time I ride after it rains.

Thanks! Luckily it rarely (if ever) rains out here. I accidentally rode into a development after the sprinklers had just shut off, and you're absolutely right.. I was soaked haha

Thanks, I live in Reno but ride all over the region. I'm by no means an expert, but I'd be happy to give you a hand.. Vegas is a long haul from up here though haha. These bikes are too much fun to tinker with
