Combine 1 and 4 with a bluetooth helmet. Look for reviews. They are gettin pretty sweet. I'll be gettin one of those next.
Then save for #8. I already have an extra set of tires. Found a set of Conti Road Attacks for $220. Thats what I run now and they're great.
American Sport Bike carries a set of bars that move your hands up 1 in, and back .4 in. Any farther, and the fairing needs to move forward, or be trimmed. That may be my winter mod.

I thought about a motorcycle blue tooth but then that would mean id have to be on my cell phone the whole time (draining my battery and using up minutes) with a chatterbox or other walkie talkie type set up i wouldnt have to drain my phone battery & waste my minutes.

What other brands do you guys suggest besides chatter box, ive heard good things about scala also
Yet i may wait on that one and ask for it for christmas seeing as my buddy kyle who i do all my riding with cant afford one yet and is going to ask for one for christmas i think.

Does anybody have any experience with the kevlar sweat shirts?



And 1+ on the road attacks, im running those on my bike now as well and they work great!
