    Comfort: Heated Grips (did it last weekend hmmmm warm hands on this mornings commute for the first time in...)

    Convenience:
    * Massive luggage, can always have wet gear or I'm able to get a reasonable amount of shopping.
    * Cycle computer gives a 2nd speedo, trip counter, timers and other stuff.

    Performance: Removed the badly set up after market pipe.

    Other: Ashtray was good when used to smoke . Don't need it any more though I quit!

    I can't say which would be the most beneficial mod I've ever done but the most satisfying by far was a series of engine upgrades on my first Harley.

    I know the whole things a bit of a swizz to get you to spend more dollars but I tell ya, after riding a bike for a few months you know exactly what it can and can't do, then you wake up one morning and your bikes like 25% quicker/more powerful, it's a hell of a buzz.

    Imagine struggling up a big old hill in your lardy Holden/Ford thing cause it's an underpowered old poo bucket, then the next day it rockets up that very same hill..Yehaaaaaaa!

    Still doesn't excuse Mr HD for not putting that engine in in the first place but why would they when suckers like me sell thier grandmothers for another forty juicy horse powers. nom nom nom.

    Any HD riders considering a big bore kit + exhausts + stage 35 kits etc etc, apart from playing into their hands and emptying your wallet, it sure does feel good to unleash some ponies.....don't forget to upgrade them brakes though eh.
    Oh bugger

    Nothing an S&S 120cub engine won't fix....

    'Fast' Harleys are only fast compared to stock Harleys.
