Got the new bike home on Wednesday and while I can't currently ride it I've had the chance to start adding some of those personal little touches. 
Swapped the screen to one off a GSA not only for additional protection but also so I could fit the nifty little GPS mount developed by Padge.
The screen mount on the 2008 is different from previous models so Migsel's excellent ram mount had to find a new home.
Chunk's pot and rear brake reservoir protectors powder coated in black fitted easily enough.
The carbon BOS GTS full system bolted straight on as did the GSA rear rack and pannier frames from the old bike.
The higher optional hand protectors keep your hands cozy on those cold winer rides and come in black rather than the grey of the standard items.
A one off headlight protector from Civil and Reyno's oil cooler grill sort out some frontal protection. Both of these fit the previous bikes which is handy.
I found out that the beak extender from the earlier bikes will not fit on the 2008, it goes on alright but the mounting hole positions are different. Also the previous BMW tank bag won't fit with the new shape of the bodywork so had to invest in the new version which is rather neat.
Few more bits to sort mainly at low level where I can't currently get to but I'm happy with it so far.
