Rider floorboards -- your feet will love you for it.
Sissybar -- I love taking a passenger. You can live without these, but sure it nice to have: clock you can read while riding, temp. guage to see if cold enough for black ice, EZ pass so you don't have to fumble around at the toll booth. In Winter, I prefer heated gloves and jacket liner. You can surely live without it and may be low priority unless you're a tourer but really makes riding extra fun -- GPS. Lower on the list -- i.e., pure luxury for me -- engine guard chaps (significantly reduces wind on pants and keeps pants from slapping my leg plus, keeps my feet warm when it's cold out). |

The MOST useful and greatest accessory for my 650 Classic had to have been my floorboard extensions (also work with the pegs on the Custom). There are 3" and 4" extensions out there....I went with the 4" and love them....made a HUGE difference.
Next would be my drag bars and ISO grips. My saddle bags have been great, I can actually USE the bike on a daily basis and carry stuff with me. Followed by my backrests (driver and passenger) and gel set inserts (bought bare gel and had upholstery shop put them in the stock seats). |

Footboards are very nice with a heel toe shifter to boot(no pun intended)
 Also a comfortable Corben seat. One of my most practical add ons is the Kuryakyn handle bar helmet lock-use it every day!!   |
