    If the exhaust is in decent shape. Do not cut it or hack off the mufflers or anything. Sell the complete exhaust, there hard to find in decent shape. Get a different seat or chop the foam. If you want to start upgrading internal engine parts, I hope you have a bank account that looks like a zip code. It can get very exspensive very quick. I would keep the motor stock. Maybe add pods and a 4-1. Maybe upgrade to a dual disc front end. I have a complete front end if you want. I also have a 4-1 vance and hines header if interested..

      The Seat...

      Here's my .02$...Get rid of the seat or at the very least get a 6 pack of duct tape to remold it and cover it up

          Only half way reasonable performance upgade is to install some 850 cylinders - Tkent is selling a set in the For Sale forum I believe. After that, add a header, pods and jet kit. Beyond that point you are just wasting money.

          Good luck.

                Lower bars are a must, Ted

                  DIRT BIKE BARS!!! haha Seriously tho, you'll love the db bars if you do it. Also, I would keep the wheels but have them relaced with Accel db wheels so you can put 17" rubber down. Also a cafe seat and that bad boy would be bangin.

                      That is not really the right bike to sink a ton of money into if you ever wanted to sell....you won't get your money out. With the economy the way it is keep your money in your wallet.

                      As mentioned, ditch the seat, change the pipes and exhaust and put on lower bars. Shine it up and ride.

                      Having gone the 'custom" route on two bikes now I can't recommend it. Time consuming, a bit frustrating and costly (no matter how closely you try to stick to a budget).

                      My 2cents (Cdn.)

                      cheers,

                        These are definitely well placed words of wisdom. Custom always get out of hand and there's no end to what you can do to these things if you start incorporating late model bike parts into the equation.

                          Good advice on the engine and exhaust. Bad advice for the rest. Plan what you want to do, make sure you can do it, then execute your plan. The heck with what everyone else thinks, do what suits you, unless you plan on trying to reap a profit.
