New 2013 F6B. Now, whic assessories to buy?

[YikesCops]

Just purchased a 2013 F6B standard, out of the crate. Love the bike. Now, which accessories to begin bolting on the thing? :-)

I've already ordered an OEM cover, and the Kuryakyn Premium Mini Boards. The pegs are, well, pegs.

Now, looking at upgrading the sound system, and the seat.

However, I was wondering what's on the top of everyone's shopping list? I know that we're all different, but I suspect some patterns in assessor buying are starting to emerge. What are the must-haves?

Thanks!

Great. But "Belly pan"

It goes on the bottom of the bike to protect the oil filter and anti freeze reservoir.

Yep, you want hear my belly pan experience?? I'll tell you anyway.

Was driving down I-94 between Detroit and Port Huron, the Sportster ahead of me lost his Back Rest / Rack. I had no option to swerve, ended up taking a hit to the belly pan and the lower cowl. The lower cowl shattered and the belly pan looked like it went through a blender.
The exhaust cover also is a bit bent, will need to be replaced for cosmetics.
I do believe the belly pan save the oil filter, and the undercarriage where it hit.

But the best part of this experience, the Sportster rider had just left the Harley dealer where he had the Back Rest / Rack installed. He also had the nerve to yell at me and the 3 car drivers for running over his parts !!

Greg list isn't in any specific order I think so let's try to give Yikes a better list.

1. Yikes- it mostly depends on how you fit in the stock seat. If you happy then move to #2, if not there are plenty of threads to discuss this, but finding the right windscreen is nil if you change your sitting position.
2. Mostly everyone does change the windscreen. Again, plenty of threads to read on this subject.
3. More light on the rear, most of us use a TIR3 Welen light, that replaces the reflector perfectly.
4. Since you bought the Standard, the center Stand and if someone will be riding with you the backrest. I'd say were next.
5. If you need a Power outlet in the left cubby ok this one is fairly cheap it can go here. But I am considering running power to the gps on the windscreen up through the dash and not out of the left cubby.
6. Get the Puppies hand grips and Go-cruise. These are so cheap your'll wonder why you didn't do them first.
7.Sound System- actually the sound system if you set it up right isn't that bad. You have two sound controls to help that one is (AVC) Auto Volume Control. Gets louder the faster you go. Use a flash drive in the left saddlebag and a phone in the earplug in the left cubby you have all kinds of music.
8. Belly pan- it's like insurance for less than $70.
