UBER COOL! You could find a brass can to put on the handlebars to look like a carbide and water res. But stuff it with batterys. Have you converted to LED bulb?

Thats a good looking light! I too found a bunch of stuff this week end at an old antique barn, like veteranary syringes for oil primers, old tanker helmets similar in shape to old foot ball helmets that could be covered in leather with ear flaps added, rear fender mount leather bags.
It's great! when you run run across a piece of history that you can actually afford and either restore to use on piece or repurpose it for something else

Yeah, that's what I did with mine. The headlamp is a replica. The batteries are in the "reservoir". I tried LED. I went back to incandescent. I can't say truly which is brighter, but I could see better at night with the old incandescent - which is what mattered.
Love the Indian rear suspension and the different type styles from other bikes, it is BEAUTIFUL! and rather unique, those handle bars are the BOMB! too
Ha! Ha! Ha!
I like the rivet design on the tank sort of a mix between a Reading Standard and Harley, I'm very interested to see what you come with concerning the mag chain cover & oil box
Like I said you are building a very beautiful & uniquely styled bike, keep it up! and keep the details at eye widening statis and something else to think about is the paint job, this bike commands a show stopping wardrobe.
I like the Butternut Yellow wheels and the brown Harley with that color on the wheels WOW! but the dark blue with wheel combo is sharp too.

Your far more talented than I can ever dream to be, so I hope you don't mind me making an observation....... In my opinion your headlight is far too large and it's causing your wheels to look smaller than they actually are. But that's just my taste and I may be alone on that point of view. Either way I love the bike and wish I had a tenth of your talent.
