This is my 1st street bike, I had no idea what i was getting into LOL

I've added.. some was on it when i bought it (used)
fly screen
belly pan fairing
bar end mirrors
integrated tail light & cleaned up the tail
leo vince ti exhaust
frame sliders
clear bra system
black heel guards
white rim tape
xenon bulbs in the headlights
new grips
tank pad

Next... full rizoma handlebar set up
new black rizoma bar
billet grips
billet fluid reservoir
mirrors
& a new riser that will bring the bars up and closer to me, for comfort.

Also adding at the same time as the rizoma setup
seat cowl
rear hugger
anodized radiator cowl
rizoma "zero" blinkers

after that I want..
sargent seat
new brake & clutch levers

this next winter...
some stuff powder coated
my exhaust ceramic coated
After that I will probably go ahead and get the rizoma rear sets >.<

they day I quit tweaking my bike will be the day i get rid of it i guess. loving every minuet of it though.

I swore off spendin' any more money on the thing for almost four months!

Of course, I still have two other bikes, and then there's the whole music thing. Haven't bought a guitar in almost two years. Hmmm...
