Worst upgrade: Corbin Hollywood solo seat. It was a leather cover brick. You couldn't ride across town without you're a$$ getting sore...

Fun thread.

Biggest waste ever was J&M audio, will never make that mistake again. Loud but crap sound quality, way overpriced for what you get.

Had XM on my old bike aftermarket head unit for awhile, soiund was not good at all. Might be willing to try it again though.

Put cooling fans on the better half's bike and they lasted about 2 rides. Fans were fine, she just complained that they blew hot air on her leg that was worse than the regular heat.

Got one of those no splash fueling "donut" things when I first started riding. 2 days later it was a chew toy for the dogs.....after being thoroughly rinsed off of course.

LOL! My buddy just got one because he wasn't patient enough to wait on meancitycycles.com to have his done.
