I put one on my bike last winter I think it's so ugly I'm taking it back off this winter.

Not my bike, but here is a picture of a Sportster with a 'bobtail'...

Kind of makes it look like the back end of my Dyna WideGlide (also shown below).

I kind of like the look of the bobtail on the Sportsters, and have thought about putting one on my 1200C...

I'm sitting on the fence with this one. From some angles, it looks good. From other angles, I'm not so sure. Actually, while I have no immediate plans to replace my Sportie, I have found myself quite interested in look of the newFat Bob. What has putme off that bike, is the bobtail rear fender for some reason. Everytime I look at it, my gut feel is that H-Dshould have stuck with the classic Dyna fender.
