Street Bob Custom Built for Brewtown Throwdown
By Robert Bacon

This custom Street-Bob takes inspiration from one of Harley-Davidson's classic models.

Looks good till you get to the rear fender, then it looks like some MoCo monstrocity.

All I can think is he must have double jointed ankles to ride that. Look at where the footrest and gear lever is in relation to the seat.

The high mid controls are a hipster thing to show off his pink socks. I don't get the chopping off half the rear fender thing. I think dickey is right. It ooks like something the moco would do and call it custom.

It looks ok to me.

But I would have to say, they Ruined a perfectly good street bob.

It's like they started in front, moved toward the back, got halfway across the back wheel, and got tired.
