I got my 07 used and it had some stuff done to already. I changed out the risers to 9.5" pullbacks and got a new seat asap. That stock badlander killed me.

That stock seat was killing my @$$ so, a new corbin. Next was the CB rear wheel I hated that cast rear wheel. Of course this was after I tore off those reflectors and replaced the turn signal covers w/ the smoked ones.

Bars. I must have an iron butt, because the badlander never hurt me, even on 12+ hour rides. But after 500 miles with those stock bars, my back hurt just thinking about riding.

New pipes, A/C, Seat, Bars, Grips and Pegs, will have the most visual impact but after that any and every single piece of that bike can be customized. There are so many nice examples on this forum that you can spend months looking at all the different looks guys have come up with.

I bought an '09 NT about 2 months ago and this is what I did and the order I did it...

1. remove reflectors (free)
2. knock out baffles (free)
3. piaa headlight bulb ($15.00)
4. smoke lenses (free)
5. tribar led tail light ($280.00)
6. side mount plate kit ($50.00)

If money were not an option I would already have done pipes, lowered, air filter, seat and detachable backrest for the wife.

those thinks must go even before I get the bike on the road.
by the way I am going tomorrow on the morning to tray to pick one up,wish me luck.
I dont take it personally....

I hated the stock headlight and bars and i dont ride with a stock seat!!

I guess what I was trying to say was answered by you.

You already know what you wanna do. You want a different headlight, bars and seat!!!

Now go get your new scoot Sasha!!! You may catch me off guard and get my Carilini bars for durt cheap when I order my new ones today?

Greetings,

No-brainer here...Remove the reflectors, SE air cleaner, race tuner, and black Vance and Hines ShortShot Staggered pipes.
