So you're generally going to tart it up?

I'd be looking at a proper shock, good forks, valve everything up to suit. Make sure it's got some handling credentials to back up the looks.

Oh and also, if you want to look at a few 'proper streetfighters', have a looksie here too, some cracking ideas to play with.

Also, SVrider forums always have a few ideas.

Personally I prefer to keep any performance items well hidden.

Also check out tygaboy on BARF forum. He has some awesome projects.

Mine not exactly a street fighter but I've done most of what you listed. Added bark busters and handlebar end mirrors since this was taken.
