    -3 custom LED mini light bars (i build them, i sell them: http://www.hidplanet.com/forums/showthread.php?61439-MK-s-Mini-Light-Bar-Official-Sales-Thread)
    -X-pods used as wide angle AUX highbeam, again from TRS

    -LED brake light

    -custom brackets fabricated by me for the EVO-1 kit to fit a crf250l
    -KTM990 windscreen
    -handle bar warmers (50W)
    -seat has been given 6" more width (3" on each side) but only where my ass is, so i can still put my leg down.
    -car seat foam, hot glue and memory foam was used for seat. seat is 1.5" thicker/taller now.
    -AUX gas tank (1.4L) in the front under the headlight permanently attached via hoses to the primary gas tank, 9L total gas capacity now, or 60km more range.
    -Lithium-Ion feather weight battery. (4.3lb lighter then stock)
    -6x super capacitor bank, 90F each
    -custom dash with rad temp, engine temp, air temp, gear indicator, voltage, 12V dc plug, and 5 switches (on the left, DRL,lowbeam,foglight) (on the right handle bar warmers, instrument cluster)

    -skid plate



    suspension/wheels:

    -bike is raised by 3" due to suspension mods
    -neoprene fork stanchions protectors
    -heavier suspension oil
    -rear stand/ swing arm sliders.


    total cost of project including cost of motorbike+parts+ oils+tires+dyno runs)= $9440Cad
    total build time: roughly 120hrs



    whats next?
    i think my bike is basically 100% done for now.

    i think this summer im going to:
    -get an acerbis 3.1gallon
    -swap the engine for a CBR500R/CB500X since its almost a direct fit, and they share the same fuel pump.
    -get stiffer suspension, front /rear.
    -bigger rad
    -gearing change due to new 471cc engine
    -new muffler to suit new engine
