Default Winter Mod Plans

With winter here and me being away, I left my bike at the dealership with a small list of mods to take care of. Here's my short list:

New bars to include internal wiring
Move front turn signals to forks using Kuryakyn clamps, not HD
Clean up wiring in the front tank area
Detachable (small) sissybar for the Mrs.
Chrome engine bolt kit
Progessive 412 full chrome shocks
Slanted/smaller red taillight lens

I think that about covers it. What are your winter mod plans for your skoot?

Swap out stock front caliper for Vrod Brembo setup
Braided lines
Lyndall pads
180 rear tire
Powder Coat (Wheels, lower sliders, triple trees, strut covers, risers, fwd controls, and other misc pieces)
Chopping rear fender
New tail light
Remove rear turn signals (going with an LED flush strut mount system)
Curved license plate mount

Powdercoat the fender struts. Relocate front signals with kury clamps. Powdercoat the clamps and the front and rear signals. All gloss black. Pull the SE A/C back plate and have it powdercoated wrinkle black along with the HD EFI intake maniflold cover. If the finances allow, Kury forward controls also powdercoated gloss black. Any maybe, but its a stretch, new exhaust and tuner.

I'm hoping for new rear shocks( black Progressives) powder the rear fender struts, possibly a new (black) headlight, re-locate front turn signals, braided clutch& throttle cables, Lyndall pads. And probably change to a good synthetic oil for all 3 places. Unless of courseSanta brings me the 95 incher kit...
And ride it every chance I can between snow/ salt days.
