Pretty much about as far as I wanna go with the stage 2 as far as performance goes.

Maybe a little more bling, painted inner fairing and some ghost flames air-brushed on the bike and another upgraded stereo would be nice and maybe an upgraded suspension(Glide pro, and front stabililzer motor mount). Just another $2 K..to go with the already added $3 K at least, I'm guessing but probably not too far off. LOLOLOL...

 

I'm a Comfort/Looks/Functionality guy. Spent all last year trying seats and cushions, IPhone mount, magnetic doors on my lowers.

This year I'm painting the inner fairing, changing the led's in the gauges. I have a new rear fender bib, crashbar mounted bottle holder that'll be going on as well. I'll probably throw a chrome piece or two and as well.

The performance is good enough for me with a stage 1 and I maintain the bike fanatically

 

I went with looks/comfort first, but my warranty is up next month and the motor is next on the list.

 

Funny, made me chuckle

 

From day 1 my changes have been aimed at fit and comfort. Bars, seat, backrests, highway platforms, crotch cooler, heated wear - everything necessary to keep me comfy. I never felt the need for more speed or power.

The next step to a better looking bike's gonna be a tough one. Gonna have to lose 50 pounds and grow ****!

 

Comfort and reliability are first, I've determined I don't need anymore chrome.......to much time cleaning and less time riding! I don't feel the need for speed!

 

I learned a long time ago, while watching some of my motorhead biker buddies doing stuff to their bike's engines, that performance work is a bottemless pit that you throw money into. I ride'em stock with no problems or feelings of insecurity. And of course the old saying, "Chrome wont get you home."

 

Comfort and Function.

 

look before... and if it's more functional like ape or 21" it's better

 

I go for both.
Half my mods have been looks, like blacking everything out.
Half have been function, like lowering kit, 103 kit (was 96 stock).

Some have been both, like my bars & seat & pipes.

Next project: cam upgrade & retune.
