Default Plans for Tax Refund?

Let's start a post for tax refund spending. Got my taxes done this week and I'm sitting online trying to figure what I "need". Looking at getting new rain gear for the girlfriend and I. What rider/bike upgrades is everyone else looking at?

I've been posting my upgrade plans in two threads (search Refresh). So far I've done some lowering and suspension work. Next comes bars, wheels and forks I think. The refund is helping with a little more input from work.

New suspension front and rear, windshield, and Royalite Bubblebags. Might put on new floorboards and have my seat redone, also, but those might wait if the weather turns nice soon.

Tax refund? I'll probably end up owing the IRS money.

If not, then it's passing lights, saddlebags, sissy bar for the wife, etc, etc...The list goes on and on.

I think the last tax refund I received was sometime back in the 1970's...

I hate to break the bad news to some of you . I have to pay and I'm not sending it in 'till April 15 so if you don't get your refund early you can blame me :}
