Not really a bobber. Looks more like a hodge podge of a couple styles. JMO but other than being shiny it wasn't a good build. Someone put alot of money into it but still not a good build.

I think the front and needs to be kicked out the frame needs to go back to black and not worth seven grand

It's a good start and could certainly be made to look better with what is there. I'm not sure I'd go 7, but I'd buy it just for the opportunity to change it up some more with those pricey parts, to the way I'd like it.

Bobbers don’t have gangster rear fenders!

Yeh, let's start there. Look at it again. The rear fender is too big a part of the whole picture, but take the same bike, and put a true bobbed fender on the rear, and look at it again... big improvement to my tastes.

If I had to name it I would say chopper. Unlikely he will ever see $6K from it.

Its actually three bikes in one. You got a LA style low rider rear end, a Frisco style middle section, and finally a bobber (sort of) style front end. Best of all three worlds making up one mixed up, awful looking combo platter. Maybe even four if you count the frame as a completely different bike all by itself.

FWIW, it's right around the corner from me. If someone wants a closer look, I could prolly talk Curt into coming out with me.
