    When I first bought the bike, it needed some TLC. Eventually found out a bad noise to be a burnt valve and ended up doing an engine rebuild and replacing the head (due to being warped, suspecting bad maintenance from previous work) at 36,000 miles (current mileage 46,000 miles). The only 900 head I could find was painted silver, I was going to paint it but decided that it gave it a different look by leaving it the same color. The paint job was trashed, so I repainted it myself.  As far as mods go: shortened handlebars, Vance & Hines 4-1 exhaust, K&N filter, smaller turn signals, chopped the rear pegs and painted them.  I also found a speedo that goes up to 150 mph (Not an easy task).
