Default How much have you spent???

We all know how much we paid for or bikes and have a goodideahow much our bikes are worth,but we spend the money to mod, upgrade, improve...whatever. I thought it would be "fun" to see how much we've spent on our bikes in mods, whether they be for performance or looks (not maintenance). Actually this is probably more to make myself feel better about how muchI want to put into my bike..., knowing that I'm not the only one!!

So how much have you put into your bike and what was the best investment??

The exhaust so far was the best investment. I would have to say that I have spent roughly $1,000 on my bike so far and still counting.

sprocket change was the best feeling mod. exhaust/pc3 come next.
If you count maintenance, fixing, gear, track days, tires in addition then I've spent more than I paid for the bike (used) [&:] in 2 yrs.
and I haven't changed plastics or such big-cost items.

Everytime I do something to my bike, it feels like the best investment. Exhaust, sprocket, clutch upgrade, HIDS, undertail. They are all good. How much and easy G. You can't put a price on whats the best. They are all good.

I stopped counting. It'd make me cringe if I knew for sure.

The previous owner "flipped the bill" on all my aftermarkets (about 1K), so I've spent $0 dollars. I'm hoping Santa Claus brings me some new footpegs, grips, and a new rear Dunlop Qualifier for Christmas.
