I have an 08 M50, so I don't know if all of this will apply, but the debaffle/fibrosleeve is great for making it actually sound like a cruiser instead of a weedwacker, or aftermarket pipes are an option, though the carb may need adjustment I hear. I like my Iso-grips, and bags if you plan on taking trips.
I forgot to mention that it already has Vance & Hanes exhaust on it. As for the engine guards, I was looking more for it to protect the body, engine and side of the bike. I'm not really worried about the pegs because those can be replaced and so can the pipes for a relatively small cost. I just don't want them to affect the turning so I have to worried about scrapping them all the time.
