Default Winter 2011-12 Mods/Changes ?

Well, it's almost Novemebr and the temp outside right now is a brisk 22* so it's getting near that time (except for you southerners/westerners) In about 2 weeks the fluids will be swapped and the changes will be planned. I only have a few in the works and they are:
1.) KhromeWerks +2 sweepers handlebars
2.) V&H 2-1 pro pipe
3.) 5" gps/RAM
4.) Dunlop AE tire

What are your plans/ideas ?

I'm wanting to ad some saddlebag speaker lids, and change out the speakers in my fairing. I'm still now sure on what I'm going to purchase yet, and if I'm going to run an amp. While the fairing is apart, I'm wanting to relocate my antenna.

I hate winter, but it's a good time to work on the bike...

1. Add the stock radio controls from a Ultra Classic to my Road King with aftermarket fairing and Kenwood radio.

2. LED headlight for the early sunsets once daylight saving ends.

3. Thinking about saddle bag speaker lids not sure which ones to go with.

4. Get the pinstripes removed along with the tank badge, repainted vivid black along with the saddle bag speaker lids and add new badges.
