A few little mods, K&N filter, bar risers, lowered pillion footpegs, and one of the better ones - rim tape:

Good used GTR master cylinders. Had to (and looks better anyway) re-route the throttle cables under the switchblock, and had to lose the bar risers (the GTR M/cyls sit further out so at full lock touched the fairing next to the windshield).

First prise would have been to keep the bar risers, but I chose this rather than that.
