I though it would be fun to start a thread focused on what people would do to their bikes if money was of no concern. I will go first.

If the price tag didn't matter, what is the 1 accessory / upgrade you would put on your Royal Enfield? You have to chose just 1!

For me it would be the ACE Fireball kit. I could kick myself for not getting the parts when they were still available. "He who hesitates is lost".

So you have to provide "cores" if you want a "Fireball" kit?

Man, I guess I’m not as performance oriented as some of our brethren, but I would paint and re-chrome everything first...then work on small bits of performance here and there. I didn’t get this bike to be “fast”...that’s not what I do...there are a million bikes that go faster than we should maybe go... style,that’s where these bikes shine... but yeah,lots a chrome and metal flake for ol Bilford...oooo and gold leaf...hahaha yup...all the way.

So you're a 10k in paint kinda guy, that's cool. I know a guy that will only paint frames with premo paint that costs $250 a QT or some such thing. He claims it lays down like nothing else. I said, "It f%% better for $250."

PS, I'll look into why your posts require approval.
