Took it all off!

Got rid of my faded front fender today. Not sure if I'm totally sold on the look of it. What do you think?

Looks like the whole Blue collar bobbers set up? Definitely looks cool, the only thing I did'nt like was their handlebar set up, the bars seem really wide for "drag bars" and the way their risers place the speedo almost facing straight up, rather than towards you? Kinda funky. But overall that thing looks clean as hell. Hows the ride height with their seat? I held off on buying theirs and custom did my own, I feel so much better sitting back further and lower, their seats give the impression your position would be about the exact same, pluse the springs on a softail are kind of redundant. I like the whitewall too. 150?

Great looking bike!!! I like the look of no fenders but I ride in the wet too much to do without them. If I had a 2nd Rebel I would go fenderless.

Nice! Do the historic plates limit your allowed mileage the way Ohio does?

I've never cared for the bobber style, just not me. But I have to say, and this IS the first time, that that looks nice. I'd really like to ride that.

Very nice!
I also think that this design seems more custom than others.
Like it is yours and a job well done and not the basic, "its black, its cool" look :P haha
