Default What mod do you wish you did NOT do?

Prefer stock in stead, too complicated, didn't turn out like you think, etc

Not real keen on the passenger seat, sissy bar, and luggage rack, 'cause now I have no excuse not to take the wife with me. I'm eager to see what others wish they hadn't done so I know what to stay away from, too.

Nothing so far. I am pretty happy with what I have done.

All of the Wille G skull parts I bought within the first 6 months of owning my bike. As you can see, those have all been removed. And powderocating my stock wheels instead of going straight to 21/18 combo, also has been fixed.

1 - Progressive 412 HD 11 inch. Should have gone with the Ricors or Ohlin from the start but thought I could live with the harshness.

2 - bare bones seat combined with the above!

Ditto on the Willie G, all has been removed except the grips... Have not decided on those yet.

Greetings,
Slipstreamer Mini-Police Windshield....lasted one trip.
Too small and caused wind buffering so bad almost couldn't keep glasses on and so much wind noise I couldn't hear the motor - with Screaming Eagle slashcuts....

A set of cheap leather throw-over saddlebags - lasted a couple of trips until I found something better.

Taller sissy bar for the OL - just killed the looks of the scooter.
