Default How would you spend $225 on your bike?

Just sold the dainese jacket that came with my bike for a cool 225 so im lookin to parlay(sp?) that ish into something for the bike.

thinking about towards new pilot powers (although i dont NEED tires)

towards new lid (dont NEED one but my old school arai is very loud/windy)

towards New jacket (old textile getting ugly bu still dont NEED one)

bike is good as far as maintenance is concerned and ive done all the cosmetic things that i care to do.

What would you do? Sorry im bored..

I guess that would be something good to spend it on. With a full Ti Akra exhaust and PC, my old 929 made 147whp.

I'd put it toward a new seat or a new exhaust. Probably a new seat first. My stock seat hurts my ****.
