Chopping stock fender? Nightster...
wow those look amazing! damn i dont think i have what it takes to chop up my bike, i have no cutting or welding experience whatsoever but man do i admire those rides. I noticed some of you guys dont have read shocks?? how the hell does that feel? I look at my ride now and looks stupid compared to your badass chopper/outlaw oldschool rides.
It's really tolerable with the spring seat. Just like riding for the first time or getting a totally different bike, you'll build up a muscle group after some exposure to the bike's stiffer set up. I really didn't think i would ever enjoy the bike but I love the way it looks & have other bikes so I stuck with it. Now I ride 230 some miles, play soccer for an hour & a half and ride 230 some miles back home just about once a week not to mention all of the other normal riding I do.

Browsing across the internet to get some ideas, this is one of the place where I found some really sick ideas.

joebotics, what did you do to cover up the ECM hole on this one?
hey bro... you are probably talking about the time I had chopped the rear fender but still had shock absorbers:
The simplest way to accomplish this is to cut the rear part of the fender, but otherwise leaving the fender intact, it allows 2 up riding... if you want to go rigid and ride solo.... go the MREED's way by removing the fender, cutting/trimming the front part, and moving the fender forward.... it looks absolutely badass... mine looked like that for some time:
I hope this helps...
