I think that's all. There may be more that I'm forgetting. I know. I need to add pictures. I need new pictures! Here's a few.

My 90 has a ton of add-ons, lots o' lights front and rear, hiway boards, superbrace, Rivco oil filter adapter, heated handgrips, acc. plug, cig. lighter, bottle holders, custom seat with Markland backrest and some other stuff I'm sure I'm forgetting. My 04 came with some extra chrome, the part I like best is the air filter covers. They add that needed shine to the black hole in the front. I just added some Kuryaken offset pegs and a DiamondR rider backrest. That's a great looking piece and is an easy install. I also got the Yamaha-Corbin passenger backrest for Debbie. The original hit her back right at the level of her surgical scars and was just uncomfortable. The new one is higher on the back and provides her with better armrests too! Don't need anything else cause we all know that the 04 white/pearl is the best looking and you don't need to add extras to make her look good :stirthepot:

Doh! How could I forget. I put the Diamond R Back rest on his spring. My back hasn't hurt since then.

My favorite accessory on my RSTD are the Yamaha lowers (keep feet cool in summer and warmer in Spring/Fall).

On our Goldwing I would have to say the Alaskan Sheepskin covers for our seats (keep our butts cool in the summer and warmer in Spring/Fall).

I have quite a few additional accessories on both bikes...but I have decided to list those that have made the biggest difference in terms of comfort and providing me with the best bang for the buck.

If I could only keep one, my Utopia would be the last to go.

[Jack Adkins]

I have a 83 and can not find squat how about some help

[Wrongway]

Jack, search ebay for some things, adapt other parts to fit. A few of these guys here have done lots with little!

[Zfrebird4]

I am looking for a bar strip that I found for my first 86VR that fits on the mirror. That way I knew rather exactly what the outside temp was to be allerted when it got close to freezing. Any clues from anyone would be appreciate. Jack Z Ft. Collins Home of Frebrd2

[Gary N.]

My favourite accessory is my Gerbings electric jacket.

[Skid]

Would have to be the intercom so my wife & I can talk to each other, then my second favorite would be the cup holder!:cool10:

[Lone Eagle]

I guess my favorite would be the paint job - but the next would be the Harley Trunk - can hold a lot and is comfortable for the co-pilot.
