Default Help Me Spend $600 at Dealership

I just bought this bike and the seller is throwing in a $400 credit from his dealer. In order for me to get the $400 credit I need to spend $200. So I have $600 total to spend on additions for this bike. Im not sure what to buy? If I can buy certain things cheaper or used through eBay or craigslist I would rather do that than spend top dollar at the stealership.&nbsp\\; Are their items you guys highly recommend that are dealership only items?&nbsp\\; Or any items? I definitely want a 1 up seat - could by a used one though...&nbsp\\; All suggestions are very welcomed.

Heres what the bike looks like. I know the bags are a bit funky. Apparently a very old local leather guy makes them for everyone in his area. I dont think their worth replacing though. Bike has stage 1.

Perfect - keep spending that money for me!&nbsp\\; I was thinking about the running lights (I have no idea how much they are yet, Im thinking alot though...) and matchng rear foot boards.&nbsp\\; Chrome front ends are nice, just trying to stretch the bucks further - get the most things that would really be noticeable. Smoked lenses really cool too...

At just a blink of an eye you can spend thousands at a dealership by just walking in to their shop. A little advice, just have an idea what you might want for your bike now because 600 dollars won't get you far at a dealership. then you can go absolutely crazy on e-bay later on after you make out your wish list. And beleive me, the list just does'nt stop. Any way, good luck spending that 600 and you'll be on e-bay before you know it. Nice looking bike by the way.&nbsp\\; Safe riding. &nbsp\\; Ray
