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.

looks great. Drop the front  fender the seat looks fine. keep it low drag bars always look good on savages of that nature. I'm almost finished my bobber. heres a pic of mine fenderless al the way.

glad we could inspire you, My bars do hit but not that bad ive turned them  down more so now they dont before the fork locks out sluggos bars dont hit though because they rise bars, i think.

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.

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.

hey c-flow what did you use for a seat? thanks john
