Default Previous owner spent a *lot* of money in the Moco catalog...

I made a list of add-ons to my Sporty so I can come up with a good number to give my insurance folks for accessory coverage. I tried to locate what I believe to be every after market part on the bike. Below is the list I came up with. The only things I've put on the bike are the seat and saddlebags.

The previous owner spent thousands of dollars on dress up parts. Not that I'm complaining... I didn't even realize half of the stuff didn't come with the bike stock. At least he did the Stage I in addition to dressing it up. I probably wouldn't replace this stuff item by item but I damn sure want to get paid for it in case something happens to the bike. The Moco sure knows how to make a buck!

That's amazing. How many of us really know how much we spend on our bikes. I know that I haven't kept a running total.

Here's a shot of the bike. I actually don't have any pics of the other side, lol. I always take my pics from the exhaust side. I don't have any pics with the bags or the windshield installed. Some additional pictures are in my Lemon Pledge thread:

No shocks or fork spring kit?
No tuner for the pipes and air cleaner?

Its not cosmetic, but it costs money...

Suspension is my next addition. Tuner? It's a carb'd bike and has been re-jetted. Believe me, my money goes towards function or go fast. Had the bike not come with any of the shiny doo-dads, I probably wouldn't have added them. But, hey, since they are there, all the more better.

I figured mine up recently and its about $2000 worth of stuff. I was shocked. naturally it all comes off if I trade the bike in. Some of it may go to my fiance's sporty.

It does add up quick, but it is all about makin the bike yours and what you want. Course all my mods are useful not cosmetic. I never got into all that LOL.

from the looks of your picture it has a chrome front fender tip. I didn't see it on the list. I'm looking for something like that for my bike. Do you have any info on it?
