Thanks! Clubman bars, but I don't know the brand.

Very clean and yes lots of small details really bring it all together.

Great Build!  What a clean bike!

Can the Chopped front fender be used?  It will definitely make the front end feel even better!

Either way, your bike is an inspiration.

Thank you!

I actually did the body work on the fender already, but I couldn't decide on silver or black so it's still sitting on my work bench. I do like like the stripped down no frills look though, at least until the first rock hits me in the face  ;).
