As stated, remove reflectors. After that it could get quite expensive! Nice scoot the way it sits.

It looks good as it sits. If you are itching to spend money, look into suspension upgrades and maybe a Positrack or True-Track to improve the handling. Not real eye candy mods, but better than just trying to dress up an already nice looking bike.

not sure how I feel about the rear tail, or the engine guard, but other than that, LOVE IT.

Nice looking bike

it would look more special if the background didnt blend in with the bike lol

Personally those head pipes dont do a thing for me. I like seeing the jugs

I dont know what your laws are like in aruba for modifying your bike but a high performance air cleaner (if you dont already have one); performance pipes , efi box, screaming eagle tuner / dynojet tuner etc. Visually the bike looks great as is . Maybe some different wheels , handlebars of your choice etc.. tons of mods to be had and all add to the fun of making the bike yours Good luck and welcome to the forum.
