Everybody is always talking about their bike upgrades on TT so why not start talking about the second most important thing, the things that get the bikes and what not from place to place, upgrades. (performance or looks) :banghead: Lets Hear EMM!

The best performance, handling and ride upgrade I have ever spent money on was the lien release!:busted:

I put on a set of high performance rotors and brake pads on my F150. Stopping improvement was incredible. Also a set of Monroe sensatrac shocks took out a lot of nibble in the suspension was well as improving ride quality.

Hooker headers

true duals running through glass packs

aluminum pushrods

different cam (don't know what brand)

edelbrock 4bbl carb.

K&N filter

different pistons (don't know what brand/details, may be bored over)

A random assortment of lights

etc. (don't know all the stuff, wasn't paying attention when he told me the first time.)

Almost forgot the best part. An air compressor hooked up to the belts on the motor, which fills the back bumper with air, which inturn, gives me onboard air. The A/C was pulled out to make it work.

Thanks.

:applause: I've never completely stopped thinking and acting like I did when I was 18. I was born a hard-core rocker with huge side of power junkie tossed in. I'm guessing that's never gonna change! (praying it's never gonna change would be more accurate):cool:
