Default what should i do??

since I'm away from home and will only be home for like 2 weeks, I'm getting the work done by the dealer, so i can enjoy it while i'm at home, now that sayed.
since i'll get them to put on the pipe should i get the breather done at the same time to save money from getting something done twince or could that wait?

what i mean by this is if i don't put it on, will i have to get it dyno or something once i put it on later.

As well I want to put the drag bars on, but i would like to see how much more you lean forward, if someone with those on can send me a pic
Thanks

In my oppinion, I would have the dealer finish the stage I kit and then ride. Ride enough to make an educated decision on the exact set of bars you would later like to have. I see so many people just go out and spend money on something they may regret.

Go get the bike and have fun.

Once you change the intake you will have to re-map or install some kind of fuel management system. May as well let the shop take care of it all. As far as bars go, you could look at all the pics on the forum but until you get them on you won't really know how they will feel.
