Default Mods for a Ninja 500R

So im new to the bike world, After taking my MSF class and getting my Endorsement, I purchased a Ninja 500r. Love the bike. Just about to get my 600 mile service and im beginning to wonder about some possible mods. Already looked into exhaust. If there is anything else out there let me know (for appearance or mechanical) Thx!

I personally would not try to exploit the bike for much more power.
However, there are a few things I would likely do:
* HID Headlights
* Steel Braided brake lines
* Frame Sliders
* and possibly a header with a little throat to it

Great bike and welcome to the world of two wheels.

id go for textile gear, some quality jeans and lugs, makes for a good personal riding gear, and doesnt get too hot, that FL heat KILLS. make sure you drink water before you ride, you do NOT want to get de-hydrated while your riding. but other than that welcome, safe riding.
