Mods: Zero Gravity windscreen, LED signals, bar ends, flapper- and soft-limiter mods, Two-Brothers slip-ons, Power Commander III USB, 520 conversion (-1/+2), Quick-Turn throttle
Best Upgrade: "The exhaust and sprockets since no V-twin should be without a good exhaust and the new gearing really makes one-wheel travel that much easier."
