Thanks greerso.
I changed the rear suspension for Hagon Nitros, raised the rear and lowered the front with the Avon/Excedra max combination and added progressive fork springs and heavier oil. That made it handle 100% better. Still not a Ninja but nimble enough to keep up. I removed the air cleaner and used the space for a screaming banshee air horn and installed a Ramair kit. I redid the Map with the help of Ulf Penner and added Dave Platt cans and Crossover pipe. That made the biggest difference to the performance. I removed the front indicators and put circular led's around the forks and 3 inch LEDS behind the Windvest windshield. I replaced the headlamps with LEDS and connected an LED light bar to my screaming banshee which strobes when you hold the horn for more than 2 seconds. I removed the rear number plate holder and indicators and replaced them with a fender delete LED indicator/running light kit from Chromeglow. I changed the clutch and brake levers for Pazzo racing units which are smaller and way more comfortable to use with one or two fingers. I removed the rear seat and passenger pegs and replaced the seat with a now hard to find Rivco luggage rack. I added highway pegs a couple of times but they wouldn't work right until I found the Rivco GL1800 gold wing bracket which is solid as a rock. many of these parts I either powder-coated or wrapped using 3m Dinoc carbon fiber wrap which is a bit tricky to work with as its quite thick but the results are always good and its as durable as hell, even on the rear ends of the exhaust heat-shields and Radiator Shrouds. I installed and used a PCV for while but removed it once i was happy with the Map that Ulf Penner tweaked for for me.
