Default "Mandatory" upgrades to new street bob

I went and put a deposit on a 2013 street bob the other day. Should be in by April 10th. I'm so excited I can't wait to get it. it is going to be bone stock except for a set of forward controls. to all you other street bob owners, what are some upgrades that you feel are absolutely necessary? I'm saving up for some pipes and a new seat, but those are more wants than needs.

Nothing mandatory lol
These 5 are always on my list every new Harley I bought.
1. Air cleaner
2. Exhaust
3. Forward control
4. Turn signal relocation
5. Tuner
The rest is your choice, you can always add more as you roll.

I would disagree with the fwd controls, but it's a opinion thing. A seat, removing the reflectors, and pipes were my first mods.

I would just wait and ride for a while and then you will know what you need/want to do.

Did you order it through the HD-1 program? The 102 is only a $350 option. And I have heard it is mandatory with HD-1?
