Today, I added detachable sideplates so I could clean up the back end.

Now I'm trying to decide if I want saddlebags (Leatherpros) or apes next.

Next season I'm planning on cams.

Help me please, I think I'm an addict. Is there an organization like AA for people like me (maybe MA)? Oh well, I'd just see someones bike on the way to the meetings and want to change something else.

Here are some before and after photos.

That's when you start abbreviating words because you can only have so many lines in your Sig!

Thanks SLV, I really fell in love with it when I saw it. Had to have it. I do see really nice paint jobs that appeal to me occasionally, but I always seem to decide I like mine better.

I'm kinda stuck now. I had Chris at ThreeMuttsCustoms make me a custom rear fender bib that is awesome. It wasn't cheap, but it was worth every penny. Chris does great work and his customer service is the greatest.

Glad I can come here and talk with other mod addicts. My wife doesn't understand me.

It ends .....when you don't have the money to put into it like you once had : )

My only mods over the winter are a headlight relocation (FXDL) & new mirrors. In Spring I'm going to paint a couple things, but after that I'm not sure what else to do.... (until I get more money.....lol)
