I ride a cruiser, and my #1 accessory would be a couple shotgun barrels mounted just above the pipes. Give a potent "backfire" to those damn tailgaters.

right on! however if your not into noise a bag of ball bearings faling out of your pocket, hitting the road and bouncing up to about windshield height can work wonders as well

I never thought of that... guess it would be a lot cheaper and a bit less prison time than shotguns.
Thanks for the idea! :twisted:

Just because I ride a Goldwing that has all the "bells & whistles" already there I'd say my favorite add on would be my XM radio. Cheers,Max

I have only bought one accessory for my rebel. It was a national Cycle LS flyscreen. The best $94 I ever spent.

I ride a sport-standard. I guess it was just considered sport back in 84 though. So far, my only accessory but certainly worth it is a tank bag. Gotta have somewhere to put "stuff".
