What type of riding do you mostly do? I would get a set of handguards. That was the first thing i did to my quad.

I paid $150 shipped for Brand New shocks off a member on here. I seen them go up far as $200 before though used

I wouldnt mess with the carb if it was me and in my garage I would do the list as followed.

Open airbox of some sort such as aluminume airbox or EHS racing lid. I would then do some shocks 450R shocks are nice and not to bad in price. compared to that of some other brands as we all know.

I would look into a front bumper and hand gaurds for rider and bike protection you will love it.

Some Air scoops to keep that motor cooler.

You can install a spal fan as well, sparks timing key, go to a 11:1 piston, have stuff powder coated for look, (wheels, hubs, bumper, exhaust, exhaust heat cover and nerf bars) gives it a cool look. You can do a decal kit or better yet a graphics kit.

And the list goes on and on

and if your very good at mods you can install a removable rear grab bar and have that coated as well.

Looks nice I did mine to leave my brake light in place with no welding lol.

Front bumper, handguards, clutch lever, and parking brake block off if you don't have one already.
