I'd go with a sprung solo seat, and low, maybe 10", apehangers.

Other than that, the Savage makes a very nice bobber. Since the purpose of bobbing is weight reduction, starting with the Savage's already low weight makes it, IMO, the best bobber.

Gotta love how that engine looks in a bobber. And I always loved green bikes.

Maybe lose the front fender and heat wrap the pipe?

Cflow,
The pic's I saw of your bike and Sluggo's were my inspiration.
Do your bars hit the tank?

Nice look with the Photoshop!

In some circles, green is considered to be a "bad luck" color for motorcycles ... why is this?

Green is unlucky for American race cars, because the first double race car death was caused by a green car. So I have read.
British Racing Green is tradition and may have come from the British trying to one-up the Irish or French, who think it is lucky.
Anybody got a bell on their bike? Wards away road-gremlins. These buggers will loosen bolts, discharge batteries, cause flats, and foul plugs, etc, if you don't do stop them. The bell must be given as a gift to have real power. Potholes in roads are caused by gremlins falling off bikes after being driven crazy by the bell's constant ring. Tradition comes from WWII pilots, trying to keep their planes in the air.

Knock wood,

I have actually been looking into turning my Savage into a chopper, but the more I look at the ones ya'll have bobbed has gotten me to rethink my decision. I seem to be liking the bobber look more and more.
