Default A new look?

SO I just finished a ride and I want to change the look of my C50. With the exception of the z-bars, its basically stock looking and completely out of character for me.

So I am thinking about 2 variations. 1 is old school which is very much my normal way of doing things. I would remove the emblems, remove the front fender, swap the rear fender for a chopped up M50 rear fender, no saddlebags, bobbed pipes, and flat black paint. This would very much suit me to a "t".

The other idea I have is adding side skirts to the stock fenders, ditching the saddlebags, and painting a single color so it mimicks an old Indian Chief style bike.

The z-bars are staying on no matter which option I choose. The seat also has to remain intact. Anyone have suggestions? I looked thru the photo album on here to see if anyone had done similar mods but didnt see any. If i missed them, please post them for me so I can get a better idea

here is mine as it sits now...
