Motorcyclists in general are never happy with the stock bike.&nbsp; As individuals, they seem to want to change things, sometimes before they even fully take possession of them.&nbsp; I am sad to say, also one of these people.&nbsp; Each new bike I&#039;ve bought, I&#039;ve immediately added/swapped parts.<br /><br />For the Harely, the first accessory/part change I made was to change the handlebars to 1-1/4 beach bars and run the wiring inside.<br /><br />For the BMW, the first accessory/part change was to replace the stock mirrors with Muth signal mirrors - the kind that blink an arrow when you turn.<br /><br />How about you guys and gals?

I had to put the chrome lettering on and last weekend I replaced the ugly L.E.D. rear signals with short stocks.&nbsp; Next paint the rims to match the bike or maybe chrome???&nbsp; Anybody know how much to chrome a set of rims?

Its fairly expensive.&nbsp; There is a company out of Medicine Hat or Lethbridge that does a good job.&nbsp; They typically make it to the Regina bike shows.

I&#039;ve heard rumblings of Chrome Industries on sasksportbike...they may be able to help you out...<br /><br />As far as mods...I&#039;ve done nothing but piddly crap but this winter I plan to redo the GS750....I have some things in mind but nothing &quot;official&quot; yet

first accessory was probably bigger carbs and a re-jet, then i bored it out, had my buddy port it and put in dual stage reeds. i got a set of expansion chambers and a new free flowing air cleaner set up i gotta throw on. i think afterall is said and done it should be an extra 25 horse power, and a lot more bottom end. not bad considering the bike only had 45 hp to start.

Frame Sliders.&nbsp; &nbsp; Sorry,

Not trashing the bike is a good thing.

that&#039;s what I thought. Stupid things will cost thousands to repair even if they just fall over.&nbsp; :rant:<br /><br />My 97 GSXR 1100 blew over in the wind and did $4500.00 damage.&nbsp;

This is why you need the hockey pucks I mentioned in another thread&nbsp; :dunno:

Ya, I have also since learnt to leave the bike in gear pushed forward to make sure it can&#039;t roll of the kickstand. <br />Leassons learned. (the hard way that is)

And park facing uphill - never downhill
