Mine is pretty modest:

Pazzo shorty levers, haven't decided if I want blue or black yet.
Rizoma Sport Line grips, blue.
Clear Alternatives indicators and tail light.

If I feel adventurous, maybe the projectors ;)
 
I quite fancy one of these

Love the pazzos and rizomas.

The clear indicators - hubby got me some for Xmas from Germany - ebay - few companies do them. Mine are whitelight and I love them.

Well, here's my "modest" list....... :D:D:D

Pazzo shortys - black with red adjusters - will probably order this week (changed my mind from wanting ASV levers)
D3 Component tail tidy - already on order
RatedR clear tank protector - already on order
CF hugger/chain guard - watching one on ebay - haven't decided yet
Rizoma grips and bar ends - red anodised
Red sprocket/chain
TS seat
Power commander III
Etc etc.....

Very greedy, aren't I

In preparation for my senior design project I have quite the list.

RaceTech Emulators
Fork Seals
Ohlin's Rear Shock
Acumen Voltage Meter
Stator Re-wind
All Ballz stearing head bearings
Vortex Sprockets and Tsubaki 530 chain (16/47 Aluminum)

In addition:
I rewired my air horn and replace the relay
Made a harness to power trailer lights when trailer is connected
Polished the Header
Replace Spark Plugs
Replace Grips
Clean and Re-grease everything...lol

Justified doing the suspension upgrades and voltage meter through my senior design project.

Off to install the rear shock...

-bryan
 
I am going to do my suspension. Ohlin rear shock and either Ohlin or RaceTech front springs and possibly the gold emulators or what ever they are called. I'll probably do just the springs. Is there any thoughts about the emulators or not? :rockon:
 
just a few things on my list:

Wheel stripes
T-Rex frame sliders
Front flush mount signals
My own custom racing stripe on the tank

last but not least Projector headlights
 
I've just ordered/received:
Akrapovic Exhausts
FZ1 Handlebar
Rizoma Fox Fender eliminator
Hyperpro front&rear shocks

About to order:
Pazzo levers hmm shorty's or regular?? whats the difference in length&comparison to the stock ones?? (getting the black with red adjusters though)

Already have:
Red reflective rim striping (looks hot! easy/cheap mod)
Garmin Zumo 660
Battery charger with connector so no removing the fuel tank anymore
Our very own fz6forum footpegs
Rizoma frame sliders (I dropped the bike once already...from near stand still, but my frame was 100% ok, just the alternator cap had a scratch)
Bagster Tank protector &tank bags (so no magnetic crap, click and secure)

I had the fork and shock done by these guys in Oregon City, Oct of 2008.... told them I wanted to do the emulators, and they talked me out of it. I don't regret the work they did on the fork at all.

In my view, I knew I wouldn't be fiddling with the knobs once I had it set up right.... so paying someone to set it up right meant I wouldn't have to futz with it afterwards. fork work, including taking the legs off the bike, flushing the schlock out of there, and modifying the rebound damper's valving was a couple of hundred dollars... including the new straight rate springs, and the Ohlins fork oil. I'd do it again..... but I would carry the legs into the shop and have them do it that way.
 
I don't have TOO many mods planned, but one of those that I do is huge. :rockon:

For certain:
-Naked conversion using Buell headlight
-Change spark plugs
-Check (and, if needed, replace) brake pads
-Changing adjuster color on my Pazzos to either black or silver (from blue)

Possible, if a deal comes along:
-Aftermarket rearsets (if no new rearsets, then I'm definitely picking up a set of luckyirishboy's custom made pegs).
-Aftermarket exhaust (probably a pipe dream -get it???- but I may be able to swing a set of MIVV pipes)

I think that's about it...
 
#1 is get the bike :rolleyes::D
then add all the stuff i have for it including:
Ventura rack and bag system
Ventura sports rack and bag
Oggy knobs
Axel oggys for both fork and swingarm
Billet filler plug
Carbon fiber heal guard inserts
FE kit
Two brothers carbon fiber slip ons:rockon:

Then add the things i have planed:
Somthing to quieten down the pipes but still keep that sweet sound
Asv or pazzo leavers
Rim tape
Ceremic coat the headers
Tank bag
k&n
differnt bars depending on how i like the stockies
Some little bling bits here and there

hell yea!
 
My list is small but significant in terms of cost, time, and results!

Still waiting to put Wiseco High Comp big bore piston kit on the bike...research is nearly finalised, some parts are on their way...now it's just a matter of waiting for Summer to end, and do it when the weather turns crap!

Originally was meant to do this back in September...but time got way from me, and then the weather got good!

:D
