Recently changed my 11 plate Hex head TB for a GS Triple Black WC, 2 months old. Looking to add a few bits and bobs and thought I see what others have done/think. Looking to get the following on it. Tips and advice much appreciated!
Full Akra system, headers and exhaust, no Cat. Anyone recommend anything else?
Rad covers – prefer Black
It has an MRA screen on it, not sure about the extension bit on top?? May just go for an adventure screen if they bolt straight on, whats recommended?
Winglets – Not sure where they would go? Had em on my Hexhead and liked.
Handguard extenders, ones on there seem to be a bit narrower so maybe get better ones/ extensions?
Headlight grill / Protection – Bet its expensive to replace, a must have methinks.
Modified seats – possibly Sargent, have had seats done independently in the past but may look see if anyone has any for sale.
Crash bars – got lower ones fitted, Touratech ones, do they do upper ones for the GS non Adventure?
Cylinder head covers – not sure these will be needed with the crash bars TBH as they seem to cover them pretty well.
Tank pad
Touratech Beak extender – Worth having?
Sidestand foot enlarger – Not sure which one to get.
Machine Art Mudsling or hugger?
Cymarc Clock brace and protector – seem some people have them. Worth Having?
Pivot Pegz or maybe Touratech Adventure footpads?
The bike has Sat Nav Prep for Nav V. Now I've always got by with my TomTom app on the phone just fine and have been over a lot of Europe and North Africa using this. Seems I have to now invest in a Nav V as it would be silly to pull off the mount and de-vaule the bike but I really am not that bothered by it. Cheapest Nav V Ive found is £499 from a BMW dealer. Is it that good?? Is it easy to use?
Luggage - Will get a bigger top box, probably just a plate so I can stick my Givi one on.
What Tank Bag?
Lots of questions and I know many probably already covered so any links to older posts appreciated.
Happy New Year to all.
