Default My winter upgrades, what's your's?

Doing my part to keep the economy going! What are you doing to your bike this winter?

Decided to start phase 2 of my bike customizing. Parts are on order. Decided against doing any graphics on the bike. Plan to add:

White inner fairing
Chrome forks
Chrome slider cover for front axle nut
Chrome hand controls
Aluminum radio faceplate
Chrome 9 spoke wheel
Polished rotors

Here it is now and I'll post a picture later when the mods are done.

Nothing. I'm done and have been for years until she needs a top end job.

Not much, the weather here in the South allows me to ride year round, whenever we do get a blast of cold, I try to do some cleaning...My winter upgrade is to add true duels..

Ozoneman, so you made up your mind on the inner fairing, your gonna love it.

I ordered the Bagger Brace last night. $289.00

I just installed the air deflector, mounts behind the forks on the lower triple clamp. $24.00

Thats all I plan on doing......we will see.

Just completed a SE stage ll 103 big bore conversion last month, and my piggy bank is pretty well empty for the winter...Maybe buy that new super light weight $200 helmet HD is advertising. As for next year, that Baker 7 tranny is high on the list. At least I have the power now to pull the start-ups in low gear at slow idle, but , it'd be nice to have a lower low.

Changing paint set to black pearl, adding TWR stabilizer, adding a more comfy seat. New exhaust will have to wait til next winter.
