    I always buy pre-owned motorcycles and then make them uniquely mine with mods. I try to convince myself that my mods are all "function-over-form" and REALLY enhance the motorcycle's performance. The mods to the suspension, fueling, and position/saddle are easiest to justify. But, to tell the truth, some expensive mods have been difficult - or impossible - to justify on the cost/benefit scale. I certainly wouldn't undo them now, but they just do not cut the "cost/benefit" mustard. For my VFR's mods, I put the Leo Vince exhaust, the Galfer rotors, and particularly the CZ wheelset in that category. Ah, well. BUT I can't help myself. It's a good thing I buy used to make some financial headroom for the mods. Otherwise my wife would certainly kill me!

    Anyone else in the same boat?
