What would you consider the TOP TWO aftermarket upgrades to your LT, and why?

For me:

1) HID lights... lights up the night!

2) EBC rear brake rotor...stops on a dime!

Shocks (Wilber) and seats (Russell Daylong)

For me:

1) HID lights... lights up the night! (K1600 comes with it)

2) Tire (air) monitor. I installed a Smarttire system. I loved it! (K1600 comes with it)

 

[Cochinosucio]

AH!!!!! I forgot about the Orange TPMS!!!! That is #1!

 

[r75]

HID high and low beam
Ohlins suspension

HID 12 years ago.
Ohlins 8 years ago.

 

[dthogey]

Corbin seat and jpegs.

I will soon have piaa lights installed, and I intend to get some mop's

 

[rowie]

So far I'd say HID. But I'm still building - installing mick-o-pegs right now so that might rank up there too..... Also putting on Starcom1 intercom and Zumo 660 so i'll have a far bit to assess...!!

HID would be the best for day & night riding. 2nd would be TPMS...got the idea off the author of this thread.

 

[MountianMama]

floorboards, makes it so much easier to stop and start
and purple springs.

Other than that any mod is probably for the better

1-Hyperpro springs over the shocks
2- Ducati designs headlight

Russell Day Long, no question.

 

[cws]

Only 2?... I'd have to break it into categories..

Safety:
1) HID upgrade & motolights... immediate difference was cars gave me more space instead of pulling out in front of me.
2) Autocom comms w. B/tooth module... easy & constant communication with whoever is on the back (my lady or one of my sons) and by phone

Comfort:
1) Rick Mayer recovered seat, go the distance without numb-bum
2) Grip puppies and throttle rocker OR Z-technik Vstream windshield OR MOPs for long distance

Performance:
1) Wilbers shocks f&r... what a difference
2) not really an upgrade but... fuel.. stay away from ethanol additive if possible, get the highest octane you can.

Fun stuff:
1) A decent GPS (Garmin 500/550) at the moment
2) GoPro for capturing the other f'wits on the road

#1 hands down is the HID upgrade. #1.5 The Hella FF50 driving lights mounted under the mirrors.

#2 The Rick Meyers leather front and rear seats I got from a brother who was upgrading to a Russel. He saved $500 bbecause I gave him my factory seats to have recovered and I got the pair of leather seats for a hundred bucks. Not even the same ballgame anymore!

1) HID low & high for out here in the flat land boonies.
2) Escort Passport 8500 with waterproof box. (let's me know where to find a bureaucrat when I need one) ;-)
Honorable mention: grip puppies

 

[simoncharles]

In order of importance:

#1 Ohlins shocks
#2 HID light

#5 Moving top case backwards
#6 Flashing rear topcase brake light and 3rd bulb in lower ones
#7 Charging plug in top case and charging plug for iPod in oddments box
