i like the visor idea for the headlights. i also would want crash bars and highway pegs. i know this probally isn't the most popular but the changing the rear turn lights to brake lights.

Fishtail pipes... Number one but remember with a shield you will hear the pipe a heck of a lot more then without a shield. Go for the 50's look. Wide white walls. Then if you plan on going long rides a GPS like ZUMO.. Makes it easy to find a gas station and to get home. I use mine after I am lost in the country. Then if I find a good road that I like I can save it when I get to my computer.
