Default looking for some new upgrade mods for my 929

Got a lil extra money in my pocket and trying to figure out what to do to my 929. So far have d&d pipe, K&M air filter, and Power commander III also thinking about changing the gearing to -1 front. Does anyone have any ideas or pictures of theirs? I need some ideas

you already have the bulk of the "upgrades." a steering dampener makes a difference, as well as upgrading the suspension and brake lines. most everything else would be cosmetic: lights, mirrors, windscreen, levers, seats, grips, etc.

Put a set of light wheels on (BST) it spose to be the biggest change in handling you can make, xxxy though.

I like all of those ideas. Def know I have to buy a stearing dampner. Was out with one of my buddies a couple weeks ago and punched hard into a corner, next thing I knew she was shaken her head at me. Needless to say I think I **** a lil bit. Lol. I'm sure it will be the best 400 dollars that I have spent so far.

Absolutely. I kneww it would make a difference but I didn't think it would be so dramatic. ALOT more stable in the corners and just tightens up your handling overall. Its a bit pricey, but definitely money well spent.

there is a sticky in the new member section that covers how to post pictures. But basicly all you need to do is get a photobucket account. Upload a pic and copy the img code (click on the img code line) the paste the code in your post on here. Or, click on the icon to manage attachments and add one to your posts, your pic will be an attachment.
