This is a question that should be kept between you and your confessor!

Ok, so I just added 2 more tiers to this poll... I ordered up this week a full Muzzys dual carbon fiber exhaust, PCV, and K&N.
 
Add another $2k+ to my list...  :loco:   :battle:
 
Jim, for some reason it won't let me recast my vote, I set the poll up originally to allow revotes, any thoughts??

You add to the poll this far a long into the poll? Most people have probably already voted!  ::)   You have to set up a change your vote option, when you start the poll!

When I purchased the bike I also ordered $2500 of farkles. The only thing I ordered since then was a GPS Ram mount.

I did set it up that way in the beginning Cap'n, see reply #5 on this thread...


Nobody is ever really "done" adding farkles forever are they?? I set the poll up for revotes so that for some of us that are still kinda newbies to the bike added more farkles to it we could revote.


When I did add in the 2 additional tiers last night it did ask me if I wanted to clear out all past votes in the poll, I said no to that, should I say yes??  ???

OK, that makes more sense now! I doesn't matter so much for me anyway. Because I'm one of the few exceptions that won't be farkleing my C14 farther!  ::)

FYI for any of you that already voted prior and wish to change your vote now, hit the "remove vote" button and it will prompt you for a "new" vote...

I'm under $2k now, but that won't last.  I'm  a seat-junkie.  I love my Baldwin but I want a Russell for longer trips.  I already have the spare seat in my garage waiting for me to send it off.  I detested the Sargent I had...but I made $100 on that deal.  Buy low, sell high, I always say!

So far:
corbin seat
v-stream windshield
bar risers and wedges
grip puppies

To come:
radiator guard
fender extender
grip pads
license plate helmet lock

That'll be it for a while. I was thinking about a top case but I have a decent soft bag (actually, 2 of them) I can use for longer trips.

Added a few more choices to the poll...
 
I paid just over $10k for my new left-over model 09 ABS at the end of 2010, I just added another $3k for Ohlins rear shock and Ohlins forks, this now puts me into it for mods as much as I paid for the bike...   :-\   ;D 
 
 
The majority of it is really on 3 things:
 
Ohlins rear shock and forks = $3k
Corbin (heated front & rear, with passengar backrest and smuggler trunk) = $2k
Muzzys full dual carbon fiber system w/K&N and PCV w/custom map = $3k
 
The other $2k is just misc bits like Top Block sliders, braided lines, powder coating, etc...
