Am not sure about the windscreen. I like mine the way it is but wish it was better with the wind. I looked at the vario ones and they are too big, the Emax ones look good

I would get rid of the rubber brake-lines and get steel braided lines. Can never have enough brake feel.

The brake lines would be nice as a later done mod to me. The twin breaks up front have decent feel.

I believe you should always work on performance first. For me - windscreen, bars, suspension.

From MororcycleUSA.com:

How to Reduce Lap Times 101

One of, if not the single best modification that any trackday regular or club racer can do to their machine to reduce lap times, as well as increase safety, is installing aftermarket suspension. This was shown quite visibly in our recent 2010 Modified Supersport Shootout Series. A quick glance at the lap-time chart reveals a substantially larger gain from Stage 1 of the modification process to Stage 2 as compared to the difference from stock to Stage 1. Since Stage 1 of the hop-up process was more engine-based and Stage 2 revolved around the chassis, this empirically shows is that suspension-related modifications contribute more to quicker times than the equivalent dollar amount worth of extra horsepower.

I would like to get some suspension set up for my nigh on 300lb weight. But it'd cost a fortune so max pre load and just grin and bear it for me until I get something I'm happier talking about to others by not saying "just an xj6s".

I do intend getting a top box though soon.

First "mod" was a cigarette lighter socket to charge stuff on the road.

I've got beefed springs on order from Race Tech that only cost me $120 CAD for the fronts and the same for the rear. Total cost all in was $295 CAD. They have them for your weight for the same money.
