^ What he said.

First thing I did was get new front springs. I went with hyperpro progressive (which I kind of regret, should have got some specific for my weight). Now I'm saving for a new rear shock.

Lots of people seem to use a shock from another bike, however that requires modification of the battery box, the other option is to get one specifically built for you weight. (search shock swap to find out more about using one from another bike).

Small things I've done to my bike were to change the front bulbs to Nightbreak Plus (£13 from Amazon, this is a barely a mod, it's just made the front light the smallest bit brighter). I've also added a Fuel slip on exhaust, however that adds 10,000% power and its just not safe (In reality it only make the bike sound different and nothing else).
