hi and welcome

these pages are full of info that can help.
and thats what winter is for - if you cant ride your scoot, spend some time in here deciding what you can bolt on/ modify

for an inexpensive mod, do a search on thesethings- x14ieds - cheap, cheerful and most folk on here say their bikes run better. mine does!
alot of info can be found here http://www.nightrider.com/parts/

good luck!

I'd recommend the Joker Machine intake a little pricey but, DRVtwin will give you a discount on it saving you a few $$. It's simple, effective and easy to install plus it looks great.

XIED14's for a simple enrichener. $100 and your bike will run better, especially with the SE pipes.

I put a mustang seat on my nightster thinking it would be more comfortable (which it is) but it also moved me back a few inches from the footpegs and handlebars (which is ok) point is, check out other peoples bikes and comments before spending money in case of unintended consequences.
