What's been your best / favourite mod.

[Efin8r]

Mine, a Fuel exhaust. Totally transformed the bikes performance low down. It made slow speed riding so much better by pulling at 500rpm lower. Before at 30 mph if i was in second it would always feel like it was bogging down and really wanted to be in first. So what's yours.

[Elizdad]

are you talking slip-on or full on exhaust ?

my GT got a two brothers slip-on - my favorite mod - always -

It's a tie between the AF-XiED fuel manager & the Cobrra NEMO chain oiler.

Mine would have to be two mods. I'm not sure I can narrow it down more than that.

The Madstad windshield for me works so well that when I tried an RT on an extended demo ride, I didn't find the vaunted RT's windshield to do anything more for me. It did move up and down by pressing a button. But I've never felt the need or desire to adjust my Madstad, so not having a button was no loss. But having a windshield that puts smooth flowing air on me with no turbulence...and doesn't act like a sail in high winds...it's just sweet.

The other is a mod that I use only part of the time. It's my Airhawk seat cushion. I can ride all day long...ten or twelve hours at a time, without pain. I love it.

I have done several mods, but the absolute best was adding my Terry Adcox seat. It really doesn't matter what you do to your bike, if it is not a comfortable ride, it's not worth owning.

Amber conspicuity lights. On every bike I've owned for about the past 20 years or so.

[Pat H]

Flashing additional RED LED rear brake light for me. Plus the HID low beam.

[Culager]

Bar risers, customized seat (more padded) and aftermarket exhaust slip on. After those mods I decided to keep this bike for a long time.

Slip on.

[Bogbody]

I'm claiming 2 .... Givi screen and tanklock tank bag

[skrusich]

On every bike I have owned in the past 25 years, I have installed a headlight and brake light modulator....I will not ride one without these!

The MV Verholen bar risers

[Robbie 11]

I cant say only one as I was never really happy with my original F800R so I will write in order of preference..
1) HVMP bar-ends
2) Winderlich risers
3) Remap of ECU
4) SC-Project Carbon Exhaust
5) K&N Air filter
6) Round Headlight...

Wunderlich bar risers only installed a month or so ago, and it hugely reduced my wrist pain. Couldnt believe that a 2.5 cm riser would make such a difference.

Others include Denali micro LED aux lights; SW Motec engine guards; upgraded horn.

3) Remap of ECU

How did you to this? Do you recall the approximate cost?

[Selden]

Four mods for F700GS:

1. Puig engine guards. Open box order from Amazon Warehouse $72.54. Aside from the price, I got this to help lifting the bike if it should ever tip. So far, no tips.
2. Radiator grill guard. Amazon $40.
3. eBay "carbon fiber" muffler for $90, including shipping. Fits well, looks good. After a year's riding, it's holding up well. ~10 pounds of high weight removed.
4. Pull rubber pads from foot pegs. This lowered my feet just enough for more comfort, and better position on the shift lever. Free.

My fav mods are the Baha Designs XL80's and Laser S1's... the best lighting setup I have found so far long-distance outback riding in Australia... I made a video of my mods a few months ago, youtu.be/MsitcmFp1pw if anyone is interested (and no, I have no affiliates to any of the mods I have made, nor are any of my clips monetized YT - it's all my own money and time for the hobby I love

I think my homemade TomTom rider sat nav bracket is my favourite. I have a lot of mods, but this one adds practicality and safety because it mounts the sat nav higher up so you don't have to look down very far to see it.

Nice set up, something I would like to add, so which TomTom and shade and what are the details of the mount, I've always wanted to attach a GPS to the high windshield mounting bracket,,.

Tom Tom Rider 550 Sat Nav Bracket.
Made out of 2 mm aluminium for easy working.
Supports are 10mm wide mild steel flat.
TAKE CARE when drilling the 4 holes for
the docking station- (see photo "preparing to drill") the
4 holes are not symetrical- make sure you have the docking station
the right way before drilling.
The sunshade is from Ebay- see photo.

I was wondering about stability/vibrations in this configuration (high windshield mounting). My Madstad windshield uses space in this area to minimize noise and buffeting. So, I mounted my TomTom low on the handle bars. I got the mount from someone on this forum and, with only minor mods, it works for me. With the TomTom giving me turn instructions via BlueTooth, I only look down (blink) for visual input infrequently.

Here are some pics of the setup......

Sundog52-A neat set up. But for me , I don't like looking down that far. As far as stability goes, I understand what you're saying, that's why I have the 10mm wide steel stabilisers fitted- bridging the handlebars to the tomtom which results in rock solid stability, not that neat looking I know, but this works for me.
