Same. Then a few months after that, the mod bug took over.

IMO go big first when you do mod...if your wallet allows. My stage 2 103 set up was the biggest buy and got it out of the way first. Eventually all the pricey projects will be done and can relax with the cheaper bling.

Mine had some nice mods when I got it. If it hadn't come with a stage one and some nice pipes (just the ones I would have picked) that would have been done right away. Since then I've done grips, levers, risers, cables, pegs, a back rest and rack. I have more planned.

It is quite addictive. I bought my latest bike the day before we left on vacation. Spent all down time in hotels ordering parts. Had quite a few boxes waiting on me when I got home.

Now the question is how long can I wait before starting to do mods.

I'd guess by looking at Ur really sweet RG U won't wait very long.


How long did you wait when purchasing your bike before you did you first mod?
