Default My next purchase

Hey Guys,
Happy holidays! So Santa brought me a new black windscreen, new sprocket kit and chain, and an air filter. My 04 F4i already has Mciron slip on.With about 300 bucks leftover from christmas, does anyone have a good idea for what my next buy should be? I was thinking maybe a pCIII? I dont really know much about them though other than the fact that they tune it up real nice. All recommendations are appreciated!

Safe New Year!

if you're going for looks check out my album pics. tapworks makes some awesome wing shadows that really make the wings pop! not to mention that they have probably THE best customer service!

A track day would be the BEST spot to drop $300 and make the bike faster!!

NOTHING will make it faster than you knowing how to ride it "good".

If you absolutely have to have bolt on stuff, the list is endless.......where to begin?
CRG Roll-a-click Levers are popular for some reason. Lot's of people have them. Some want bling......get some neon.
Slipper clutch, Ohlins front/rear, new tires, PCIII, Dynojet Quick Shifter (needs PCIII USB as well), full Brembo brake system (just got for X-mas.......NICE!!!!), rear-sets, (I prefer Arata adjustable), stomp grip. Those are what were on my list of stuff to get. Ohlins Front/Rear is all that is left for that.

I say get a track day under your belt. You'll NEVER look back.

Track day! PCIII might need dynotune for best results... which is more $$$ than the PCIII

+1 on the track day!! Knowledge and sharp skills are invaluable.... and could quite possibly save your life on the street

But if not and you still want goodies, I would recommend some HID's (a GOOD pair, NOT the cheap ebay ones). Not only do they look cool, but I consider them a safety item as well... helps my blind *** see better at night over the stock halogens, plus helps others see me cuz they're so damn bright, lol. Plus with a little color it catches the eye a little more, and doesn't blend in as much with the rest of the headlights around you. IMO on a bike anything you can do to attract more attention to yourself (in a good way... no stunnaz, lol) and make people SEE you, is a good thing
