My 2006 GZ mods ...
The current mods to my bike (Raven) are pretty much the same as everyone else. I thought some folks might be interested.
I did the K&N filter change along with the needle shim and main jet switch to 132.5. I have a 137 main jet and may switch to it down the road. I added the Emgo megaphone exhaust using the longer muffler. The bike really performs well now. I have the 16 tooth front sprocket and will get to it soon, but no real rush. The MC engine guard added a bit of protection that I wanted, much better than the Suzuki version. The sissy bar is the Suzuki version that may change in the future. The saddle bags are from Saddleman and seems like a great fit. The National Cycle windshield was a personal choice that I think works well, not everyone has it. I also added a bigger chrome horn that is a little louder but not too much. The front fender guard is from Fehling and gives the GZ a totally different look. http://www.postimage.org/Pq2DlMo9.jpg Kuryakyn Dually pegs were added to the front and I think add a bit of comfort on the road. Signal Dynamics Tri-Star XP Turn Signal to Brake Light/Turn Signal Converter was used to make the magic happen with the rear turn signal lights. I switched to clear lenses with red bulbs. http://www.postimage.org/Pq2DlpWS.jpg I don't think I left anything out. I have a couple of more changes to add in the future and will post them at that time. So this is what Raven looks like now. http://www.postimage.org/gx1H2RL9.jpg |

Looks great, New pegs are next on my list. What adapter did you need for the Kuryakyn Dually pegs? Or do you simply buy a "Metric" style?

If, OTOH, you are runnning the hills in 5th now, then forget the 16T; there is NO WAY you will maintain 65 up a steep hill in 5th with the 16T. |

Where did you pick up your main jets? Do you feel the 137 would out perform the 132.5?

Got a chance to finally install the 16 tooth front sprocket. What a difference! If you want an exciting change for your GZ this is it and it's cheap.
