[QUOTE="cleonard, post: 166492, member: 21"] Don't have that bike, but some general observations. One reason for starting with a bike like yours is that it doesn't need a whole lot of changes to ride. Hand guards for sure, but you already have those. Remap? Is the bike short on power? Somehow I doubt that. However, if you de-smog and re-pipe you will need the new map loaded in the ECU. Not every dealer will do it due to legal issues, but if yours will not do it keep looking around for one that will. How street legal are you talking. Those non protruding LED signals are not really legal. In order to meet the regs they have to stick out and have to be of a minimum size. 14/48 gearing is as important as the hand guards. Do that today if you like the tough trails. If you gravitate to the rocks upgrade the skid plate too. I say ride the thing and do mods as you find that they are needed. [/QUOTE]
