you can remove the spring alltogether, but if you want to bolt it to the other side the bracket wont work, buy a nut that fits that bolt and tighten it to that

you can tighten the bolts on the bottom of the fork tree or whatever its called to make the forks not hang loose, but i like a little slack in mine so i only tighten it a little i got my spring mounted to the outside the way you want i think
 you dont use the bracket for the bolt at all. you can leave it the way it is on the gooseneck but if you remove it or turn it around your bike will get a little bit lower. i turned mine around instead of removing it so i dont have to remove the gooseneck if i decide to put the spring back in for some reason
 just use a nut on the back of the spring bolt to hold the spring in place

just move the fender up, but its good to avoid potholes anyways, you could bend a rim

yeh, but it's also pretty dangerous round here to have the turning circle that small...i think if more people had lowrider bikes it'd bcome illegal....but it's more dangerous coz there maybe instances (say when crossing the road) where you need to turn sharply and that restricts you a lot....and my dad'll *** at me
