Thread starter
When I bought this bike I loved how balanced it was. It never did anything super well but everything it did was really good. The clutch feel was perfect, the power band was smooth, the looks were most of the way there. So when modifying it, I really just wanted an OEM+ approach. Stuff that look like it came from the factory. Subtle yet for anyone who owns one to look at it and go “oh you did this, or that…” With that in mind, most of what I did was for aesthetic reasons. I don’t ride my bikes very aggressively anymore. 95% of my riding is to and from work from march-November (or as long as I can get away with before snow). I’ll just kinda list the mods and if there’s a lot of interest in any of them I may do a separate write up going into as much detail as I remember.
