Really depend on what you want to do. Is it looks you want to improve, mpg, chase ponies etc, a bit more info and I'm sure the guys on here can point you in the right direction.

Create a custom Carpe condom container. Don't forget a pocket for lube if you have a 900!

-Put a 15teeth cogwheel front.....better accelaration
-Yamaha R1 front brakes (the blue ones...matches without modifications)
-Put H.I.D. (xenon) lights on.The original sucks.
-replace the air-filter box with THIS
-replace the stock carbs with FCR from Keihin or TDMR-40 from Mikuni (Racing Carbs with flat slides)
.........
and many more..........

Don't forget to replace that pitiful horn.
I have dual Fiamms on now... quite loud. Due to back ordering in about a week I will have a Stebel Compact dual tone airhorn.
This is a horn so loud you have to warn the mechanic to test the horn while the bike is still outside.
You have to wire it through a relay with heavy gauge wire like the Fiamms... buts thats easy.

I've got a side panel. It's scratched, but not cracked.
PM me if you're interested.
