    Order of importance

    1 Breather reroute
    2 RSS
    3 Better grips
    4 HIDs
    5 Adjustable levers

    These upgrades made the most difference with my bike.

    I dont think a pipe, ecm upgrade and K&N is a must. If I was to put it on the list, it would be all together number 6, and should not be separated.

    RSS = Right side scoop
    TPS = Throttle position reset which is only needed for ECM changes.

    If you can find comfort grips, they are amazing. CRGs, ASVs and Pazzo's are great, chinese GSXR levers are good too, but they require modification.

    1.Susp. adjustment
    I think suspension tuning is like setting the right tire pressure or putting gas in it or checking your oil. Not really a mod as much as it's a requirement.

    In your airbox you will find 2 hoses running into it from the bottom if the reroute hasn't been done.
