alright guys and gals, was forced over to the dark side when my beloved curvy was nicked, and i ended up with a pointy!
ive had the bike for about two weekd and put about 500 miles on it already. overall im pleased with the bike, the only problem is its a bit boring! it has no quirks or real character, it just works! so now im ready to butcher/mod/personalise it! got about £1000 to throw at it, so i leave it to you guys to suggest what i should do, ill add pics as i modify her. here she is ![]() |

how far are you willing to go? can you do most stuff yourself? i quite like it as it is, but i could just a few quid at it i'd buy some rear sets cos i love the look and bizarely find them more comfortable than the standard pegs

Could always do a GSXR front end conversion.
Maybe some flush mount indicators at the front or some mirrors with intergrated indicators? It does look pretty nice (for a pointy) as it is. How about doing a couple of trackdays.. not done one myself, but everyone I've spoken to who has says they got a lot out of it and it gave them a chance to see just what the bike was capable of |

I'm not sure if throwing money at the bike will give it the 'character' you're looking for. It looks a nice bike so why not just get out and ride it, if everything is working as it should.
