Default What next?

I have upgraded my exhaust to true duals and rhineharts. Added a SE intake and a SE tuner. Scheduled to get the 55 cam upgrade next week.
Thought about some custom wheels but with a bagger, it seems like a waste.
Are there any more performance upgrades I need to think about
Thanks
Buff

Really? What led you to this confused conclusion?

Welded, Tru-ed, and Balanced crank would be some good insurance.
