Rack for the Tour Pak, foot pegs, shiny chrome covers for the passenger floor boards (Ha, cheap, but they look nice), saddlebag guard bags, windshield bags (I got the triple pocket, but should have gotten a larger single pocket), and Zumo (nice, but not required).

the module that makes your rear turnsignals into running lights is a must as far as safety. and the floorboard extenders really improve the comfort. the taillight kit, module and red lenses for the back are the first thing if you care about safety. although an ultra has tons of lights out back, two more can't hurt. and for fifty bux or so, a great improvement, five minutes to install too, if you're really slow like me.

back rest, sirius radio, big bore, in that order (for me). Lots of others, but those are my favs.

E-Z Brake pedal. Got rid of that ancient stomp pedal Harley puts on their tour bikes.

Detachable tour-pak, 6" windshield, Badlander seat.

It's like having two totally different bikes.

Rider's backrest, AMS sheepskin seat pad, RJ's heat deflectors, and (best bang-for-the-buck) Crampbusters palm rests for the bars.

I gotta vote for my floor board extensions too. They were cheap and make a huge difference on long rides.

I should have added the backrest. Couldn't wait to get it on.
