Bike looks very nice! Looks like the same yellow paint as my 2003 V-Strom 1000. I painted the front fender to match the rest of the bike.

Center stand, and Givi crash bars. As the Brits say... Fitted!

More goodies to come. Peg lowers, and belly pan

Got the pan , and peg lowers on. Pan pretty straight forward but had to use Sid stand hole bolts as part of installation. Those were really tight with some type of yellow thread locker. Had to use lever extension on ratchet. Went back with the blue stuff on all bolts. The peg lowers was a little confusing but figured it out...also lack of lunch probably had a lot to do with it.

Never ends

Now I want the handlebar risers. Ordered that atlas throttle lock and a ram mount for the phone.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0753...40_FMwebp_QL65
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B006X387ZS
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01MQE0WQS. Will see if I can make these work for the old saddle bags.

Finished with the farkles I got from Cosmo accessories from the nation of Greece. Took 3 weeks ,1 week delay due to Christmas but very satisfied. Very responsive to my emails. Arrived undamaged. Got at a decent price in so far as Jap big 4 stuff goes ( knew what I was getting into after leaving china)
The result, tested today before the cold arrives again tomorrow. Blasted around local roads and got the brake and shifter linkages right the first time. Peg lowers are a dream with about 1 inch lower. Can stand with no hunch back. Heard no rattles , and no whistling sounds. I think it looks much better...should have been included in the first place but you know how it goes $$$.

May drill a hole for oil drain. I can access the filter from the left side without pan removal. Will see nextime oil change.

Happy 2018 to all. It's been a great 2017
