Not at all. The only thing I regret is that it didn't come like this stock. 1000 on parts is a lot to make a bike run like it's supposed to.

Im pretty happy with everything Ive done to my bike. It hasnt been anything too expensive but it all makes my bike more mine and look more like how I want it to. I think Im done though until I eventually get a new one.

No, I wouldn't change a thing. Everything I've done to the strom is functional and well worth the money.

I haven't done many mods to my bike. The previous owner did most of what I would have done (exhaust, flushmounts). All I've really done is a taller windscreen and I had to make a license plate mount and light since the previous owner had cut that off. I'm happy with all of it, especially since I didn't have to pay for the larger ticket items.

BTW as far as the poll goes, yes I'd take my money back only so I could apply it to the newest latest mod!
You've seen my bike. There's no way I'm getting even a 1/4 back of what I have into it. I'll have that pig till' the end...

I did my mods for myself. If I didn't want them, I wouldn't have done them.

My mods have been mostly small stuff that can be easily undone if I so choose... And they've been fairly cheap so no regrets there.
