Handlebars and Grip heaters. Then slowly grab rails, tires, brake pads. Just found a smoking deal on a PCIII that I really hadn't been looking for. Soon brake lines and suspension. Be interesting to see what goes on before the rally.

"No Disassemble!" "Number 5 is Alive!" That thing looks like it popped right out of Short Circuit or Batteries Not Included.

Well, when I bought mine it was a touring model so it already had a windscreen, sissy bay, floorboards, heel-toe shifter and bags. I had them throw on crash bars and a luggage rack at the dealership when I bought it. The first thing I put on it myself was a Mustang seat, and it was worth every penny. Since then I've lowered it two inches, put a throttle lock, a taillight flasher, a tank bib, highway pegs and a riser kit with a tach (had that one done for me.) And I've wired in a cigarette lighter.

On the Kawi the first mod was to get rid of the rear mud flap. Second was get rid of the shitty stock mirrors and replaced them with Buell mirrors, Third mod was Exhaust/Power commander/air filter. And a few other mods ofter that...

On the Zuke, Got rid of the mud flap first, second was the Pazzo shorty levers and third was the tinted double bubble windscreen.
