Nice looking bike, if you want suggestions I will change that seat for a custom made one and will remove the belt covers, also will like to see some pictures from around the bike (right side and back)

Just my opion.....Change the seat and maybe a little fender.I don't like a spring seat and shocks together,although it probably rides good.If it's a rigid...spring seat.If it has shocks hard mount the seat.

Don't know nothin' about bobbers, but I think a fork brace would be good after removing the front fender. The front fender has to have some bracing effect on the forks. :)
