get the push-button fuel door release..you're going to get tired of using the key really fast and it's one of the cheapest pieces you'll ever buy!

Riding in the UK. If you don't already have one, I would buy a good Rain suit.

I'll give you the brighter, but easier to use? Could you elaborate?

Slipons, so it sounds like a Harley.
Fuel management to cool it down. Xied's for slipons & an a/c, something more (PCV, TTS, etc.) if you're gonna hop it up.
A real windshield.
Ride it like you stole it.
