Thats an impressive list of mods...almost can't call it a GS anymore. Anyway what are gold emulators? something to do with ignition or spark? If you get a front fairing I'd go with a custom paintjob. Flame it out or somtin.

Swap those puny, bendy 37mm front forks for stiffer and stronger 41mm ones.

TRUST ME I RIDE IT EVERYDAY RAIN OR SHINE, AND THE GOLD EMULATOR ARE VALVES THAT LIMIT THE FLOW UP THE FRONT FORK OIL MAKING THE FRONT STIFFER AND TRUST ME MY FORKS ARENT BENDY, THEY ARE PERFECT FOR EVERYDAY RIDING EVEN. AND THE SINGLE SIDED SWING ARM, HOW DO I, OR WHERE DO I GET THAT? THANKS,
BRANDON

Yeah, new bike... like mine.  It's stock.  We can trade.  
Then you can have all the fun again :)

Seriously, though, once the handling is where you want it, then I'd go for lighting, like some PIAA driving lights.  

"You can never have too much light!"

I'd enjoy it... that thing is perversely modified... Yea cant even call it a GS anymore... of course the biggest let down is that GS motor you got in there. Chage that for like 1/2 the GSXR 1000 motor... and you're good.
Cool.
Srinath.
