rev_arb,
Aftermarket in what way?? For air intake use UNI or K&N. I modded my exhaust in the shop. I replaced all the engine mount bolts with grade 8 from Ace Hardware & Lowes. My back tire is a Pirelli. I upgraded and all the other bolts to high strength stainless allen bolts, again Ace Hardware. Don't think there is much more that can be done, maybe a badass paint job?? :P Wolf |

The thing most done to my gy5 was wire loom and zap straps... originally a lot of wires and hoses were routed poorly and rubbing on sharp edges, I rerouted some, others simply got a good wrap of wire loom.
I also replaced my stock gy5 taillight with a 60diode led truck taillight... It was hard to miss seeing that. Changed spark plug and motor mount, front fender, headlight fairing, grips, and hand guards. Painted side panels to match. I think that is about all I did to that... So far my gy6 is stock, except for the luggage rack I added.

No part number for the taillight, it is just a standard commercial truck LED taillight, every different brand has different led patterns, but the lens itself is the same shape, if it is that oval one anyways, you can get round, or whatever, but if you check at any local truck parts shop or dealer, such as peterbilt, kenworth, freightliner, etc they should have them... They also have the bracket for it... I just welded the bracket to the bottom of the luggage rack.
How much... well the led light is probably 20-30 dollars I don't honestly remember, they are sort of pricey, but not bad considering an led bulb for the normal brake light socket would cost that much and not work nearly as good... The bracket is only about 4 dollars. No heavier guage wire, I didn't do any calculations or anything on how much power is used, but led's don't use much, so I figured it was fine as is, and I had no issues.
