Ok, This is PROBABLY the furthest I'm gonna take the gold "bobber" look.
Now I've added the rear fender and the clip-on bars. I've also added the rear fender extension on the front part of the rear fender to keep all the road grime from spraying all over the rear half of the engine/trans.
I thought of making a bracket to lower the speedo, but after a lot of thought and comparing it to my other bikes (like the H2), I've decided I like it best sticking up into the wild blue! Just like those Obnoxious, BIG OL' oversize tach's in a little ol' street/strip car. (or Dolly Partons ti--, well, you know).
The only things still to add are the bar ends, a bar end mirror, and a skinny front fender, like a sportster fender, only with a radius for a 18" tire, painted black.
But the rain season starts on June 1st, so I'm fixing to change it back for two-up riding, with the stock front fender and the green tank to match. Who knows, after adding all the crap needed for two-up riding, including the full fenders, I MIGHT even think of trying "bags", weirder ****** has happened.
Here is the fender extension. It's made from the part of the rear fender that was cut off, hence the triangular indent that I made a brass insert for. The brass acorn nuts hold on the "mud flap" part of the extension. NO MORE DIRT ON MY PRETTY LITTLE GIRLY STICKER!
Peace
