There is a 1000 mods I made to my 89 each of which I like a lot... but the favorite would have to be the cheekiest... TL1000 seat latch unit which was lying about on the wreckers floor, which they gave me free cos it ws going to be more $$$ to make the key to open it than they would have got from selling it, and I modded that lock to open with my GS key.
Many more mods actually have great impact... like powder coating the triple and dash panel black, 1/2 inch fork brace (BTW I have a couple of these for sale at $40, BMW after market bar ends, steel braided brake lines with threaded fittings, super short and light exhaust can on stock headers, many more but none make me giggle like the TL seat latch mod.
Cool.

So far i've dona fender chop and added a blast flyscreen, tank bra and case savers. I think the case savers are my favorite so far.  i have a bunch o parts waiting patiently to go on the bike but the weather won't allow me to work outside :x

um, *cough-gelseat-cough*

excuse me. what were we talking about?

Quote from: Von VesterThe dent in my gas tank, I swear I got a 5hp increase after that mod. It has to do with increased volumetric efficiencies from the lower head pressure feeding the carburetor bowl with a lower mass flow to ambient pressure ratio.

Also the scrape marks on my alternator houseing that tore away the Suzuki emblem. When I cruise by I just feel the babes checking me out.

:lol: You should see how much gain you get from speed holes.

My favorate mod would probably be the progressive springs.  Very easy to do, fairly inexpensive, and makes a world of difference... even more so if you replace the fork oil.

If you do a lot of winter riding, heated grips are nice.  I have also added a plate/extension that connects where the handlebars are bolted to the bike that holds the switch for the heated grips and a 12v cig lighter style accessory jack.

Rear katana shock definitely improves the feel of the bike, particularly if you're a larger person (I'm ~230-260, depending a little on the week and a lot on what I'm wearing).  Handlebar risers can make the bike more comfortable if you like the "gentlemanly" upright position more than the "sporty" leaned over position.

Haven't decided what to do on my bike next, but when deciding what to do, always look at A. what will be the most useful, B. what will be the most fun, and C. what you can afford.  it's fun to modify your bike... it just is.

I have two turn signals on each side on the back of my bike, just 'cause I thought it would be interesting and make me easier to see at night.
