Dodger, As you can see below my bike is about as far as one can get from your bobber style. I did 20k last year including a couple 850 mile days. After seeing Shipleys bike I'm thinking I might go with the black springs too.

On last summer's trip north I stopped to see a old friend I met riding dirt bikes in my teens. He got into building custom Harleys and was a big time show judge for 16 years.(Strugus, Rat's Hole, Laconia) He showed me his current bike and it was gorgeous! BUT, 2 years old and he had never rode it! He looked at my bike and shook his head. He looks at bikes as a piece of art. I built this bike up to ride.
That is the beauty of a S40 or Harley, you can make them into whatever suits YOUR taste.
My cousin lives about 5 miles from my old friend. He bought a new Harley in 11', put a trike kit on it in 13', when I saw him in Richmond in Sept. he had 93k on it!
