For me, it was Inspector Gadget's rear mud flap and rear trunk shelf. Every time riding on wet roads, splatter would be all the way up to the back of my helmet, mud flap solved problem. Rear shelf is great spot for small items and won't get lost in the black hole.

I notice that you didn't mention leaving Nancy at home... Like Darren did with HIS Missus!

it is with a heavy heart that I must retract my message as being down right incorrect, my wife of many many many years seen my post

[tobor9]

for us the $10." Cramp Buster" we put on our throttles was one of the best and the cheapest mod we've done

Well I'm glad to see that you survived that scare!

Are the bruises going down yet???

1st round goes to Lamont, IPS with Spyder. 2nd round to follow, Baker Air Wings -- any discount codes?

Thanks for all the ideas, first of the spring group rides on March 17th.

My Favorite mod would have to be the rally stripes from PowerSportsWraps.

My Best mod is a toss up between the Utopia backrest and replacing the analog gauges with a 12v socket and a Voltmeter.

What size Cramp Busters did you use on your Spyder? Were they stock grips.

My flaming bird on the frunk comes in under the pricing threshold... Thanks Pete!

Never thought about the 12V socket. The voltmeter was almost a given. Been thinking about oil pressure as well, but the 12V socket may be a good alternative.

If I didn't have a Utopia backrest for my RT, I wouldn't be able to ride this beast more than a few miles. By co-incidence, the back is "indented" in just the spot where my "hinge" from a couple back operations is. 8 lower vertebrae bolted together and this hinge allows me to bend over. No touching the toes, but pretty darn good.

Second good deal is the Inspector Gadget footboards and (heel and toe shifter, which is more $.) Really super.

For comfort alone under 100.00...Gadget floor boards hands down.

[johnwinslow]

for looks and function, bump skid

[BikerDoc]

Whether the cost is $200 or $1000 (it is not), the Utopia Backrests have brought me more comfort and pleasure than any mod in the last three years

[Desert Spyder]

The brake light on the rear lid from Custom Dynamics. Safety first. Next i will get the utopia backrest.

[StanProff]

Baker Air Wings, hmm....are they easy to install? First ride I have ever owned without lowers.

The RT is ALL lowers. I remove the lower air deflectors to increase air flow in hot weather. this helps a lot. I am sure that the bakers would help direct air much better to rider and pass.

I would opt for adding lights over anything else. Seems you hear the same line after every bike accident involving a car, "I didn't see him". IMHO, adding lights over the stock reflectors is best and safest investment. Then do "frilly" add-ons.

[TOPDOGJIM]

Just added the full size break pedal and a 64 gb Ipod touch for the trunk.

[J. Mark]

The Tricled fender lights would probably get my vote for the best mod under $100

and the Utopia back (although over $200) is my absolute hands down best mod to date.

[Bob Denman]

Their seeing eye dogs just weren't paying enough attention!

In Japan if you try and say that; they just haul you away...

Big Comfort, small price...

[spyderrock]

Ok best mod for under 200 has to be the 10.00 dollar sheet I got at sears. You see it all started with this forum and watching all the mods people were doing so i get this idea because my wife parks her car in the garage next to my Spyder she can she what I have been doing to it so I keep it covered telling her its just to keep the dust off of it. So last night some friends come over and they want to see the bike as they are leaving so i open up the shop and they see the gloryders, ips, ram mount cup holder, my new NBVs, the graphic kit and they want me to start it up so they can see the lights....well the wife walks out to see what is going on and then the s#@t hits the fan lol and she say this is new...this is new..this is new...when did you get all this stuff lol so my response was well dear every time you buy a new pair of shoes for that fancy office job you have I get a new FARKLE...Im very surprised i didn't sleep on the sofa last night lol

[Bob Denman]

You are one very brave individual!
Mine has also learned to count "Stuff" and look for new shiny patches...
