Default What's left for me to do?

It seems as if I've hit the end of the road. I don't think there's anything left for me to add to my bike.

Starting at the front...and working towards thr rear, here's what I've changed or added:

1) Extended reach bars for my short arms (I'm only 5'10")
2) Grips
3) Chromed controls
4) Chromed fork (upper and lower)
5) Stainless braided cables
6) Chrome visors around headlamps and turn signals
7) Chrome trim on brake caliper
8) Shorter 17" windshield for the summer
9) Replaced Harley Speedometer for HD Speedo / Tach
10) Chrome trim around Speedo
11) Voltage regulator chromed
12) Chromed footboards, brake pedal and shifters
13) Chromed trans cover
14) Chromed oil filler
15) Chrome oil breather tube
16) Chromed inner primary cover
17) Chromed passenger foot rests
18) V&H True Duals
19) V&H Oval Slip-ons
20) PCIII USB
21) Sundowner touring seat with passenger pillon
22) Removable backrest
23) Blondie clock on console
24) Laydown license plate holder w/ chrome trim
25) oops forgot highway foot pegs
26) Leather accessory bags that attach to the rear saddle bag crash bars (both sides)
27) Rider backrest

Bike looks real nice, and it's running perfect since tweeking the PCIII.

What's next? I can't simply stop this madness. It's like trying to quit smoking.
I need more!

Help, what should I do?

How about Cruise Control, and an Air Horn to replace that thing that HD calls a horn?

The bike comes with cruise control stock.

Air horn is a possibility.

I was thinking engine work. Maybe 203 cams, 103 kit..
But I'd honestly hate to tinker with the engine since it's running so well.

Replace the backrest with a quick-detachable stripper pole?
